I really feel like a nerd, too; I yelled that at my TV - and then felt horrible, otherwise. Now I see it's just a thing, and ... uh ... Reasons. Cheers, Ellis! 🍻
The Podcast that got me back into podcasts, 5pm every Friday it drops just as finish work. Look forward to the drive home to it every week, thanks for everything this year guys! Have a great Christmas and can’t wait to follow along in 2025
I’m so glad to have found this podcast this year. Y’all have a great dynamic, and I think it’s great that Adam and Ellis get to contribute as well. As with many others, I listen every weekend while I clean the house… next year you should calculate “vacuuming” lifetimes.
One thing I have noticed this year is that I sat through 100% of the ads narrated by Ellis and promise to do so in the new year. So if you want people to sit through the ads, give em to Ellis. That boy is something else.
Here's what's legit about the community, though; I just replied in a "Shut Up, Ellis!" comment, and am now here to cheers to the same thought. 🍻 (Edit: I meant to include "🤔🤘" )
Hey waveform crew, I just wanted to thank you guys for the weekly Friday morning podcast, I got to listen to my favorite hosts talk about all the tech from the week while running my weekly errands around the town I live in.. It makes the driving around and sitting in traffic all worth it, and now I look forward to it each week. ❤❤❤
Thanks team! Enjoy the holidays, really enjoy your podcast. It's the only one I watch the video stream, since you bring such a nice ambience together in the room
Great video guys (maybe the best one this year?) and I hope you all have a great holiday away from work. Not gonna lie if your personnel lineup ever changes, I'm pretty sure I will cry and I'm almost 65 years old and don't need the misery. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you and your families from Ontario, Canada.
One of my favourite podcast on RUclips love my tech but not that tech savvy but learning as I watch these guys each Friday, Merry Christmas from the UK
27:25 something else with the fact that he created SpongeBob without typing SpongeBob - imagine when it starts doing this for products. It can’t get creative because just by trying to think of a humanoid sponge, you create SpongeBob. By trying to think of a small breakfast pastry with frosting on it, it’ll create a pop tart. If you type a humanoid hedgehog with superpowers, it might just give you sonic the hedgehog.
What a year it has been. And this is more like a note, for letting me live this. Well youtube did not do a RUclips Rewind this time, else the Waveform podcast would have just blasted in my watched videos. I have all of the members of the Waveform podcast as a poster in my dorm room. And while I may not exactly have friends at my college, the Waveform podcast was one of the reasons that kept me going. But there is this impeccable collaboration to the episodes which is too close to me. First off, there was Marques asking a trivia question about when was the original final cut pro come out and Adam (probably my fav studio member after Marques) just went a step back and just pointed out 1998 while Ellis was guessing and that was just too cool of him. Second, it was a moment of just being proud when Marques brought back some hardware from his ultimate frisbee tour. Andrew becoming a dad, I was just too happy for him, for he just is this person who is happy and he cares for everyone. I remember laughing too hard during the entire Trivia extravaganza while watching David being silly, him just having the happiest time and even while both of them were like oxygen ‘freezes’, they were still smiling and David just can’t get enough of the questions and wanted more, believe me guys, I did too. I am a story person, I love stories and my favourite episode this year has been ‘FBI Tales and more’. Also I can’t just finish the note without mentioning Ellis’s purple phone, you guys literally made the whole year happy. Thank you guys. Adam being this much punctual, this ones for you.
I'm glad the team is taking a break for the holidays - the fact that they haven't in 5 years is insane. I respect the grind to a degree but goddamn ya'll need to take breaks to take care of yourself too! Happy Holidays and enjoy the break.
Honestly I came here initially because of you guys’ coverage of Vision Pro. That’s how I found the podcast. Now I’m here weekly. I use my Vision Pro regularly but I do get how it’s not something that has to make headlines every other day. You just use it. It should be pretty clear what it’s for. You guys are the best though!!!
That SpongeBob animation is amazing. Can't believe Veo is still nascent; who knows what it will be capable of when it matures? Let artists be mad. If you're worried about AI taking your job, that means you need to *BE BETTER* and work in a field and position where AI can't replace you. AI is just a tool; it massively reduces the barrier to entry for newbies and makes life easier for professionals. People also cried about machines, calculators and computers when they came out, but guess what? They didn't go anywhere - they're here to stay, and AI is too. It's the future, and you have to learn to live with it and work around it.
30:02 I actually don't think this is generated from noise. I think they are taking still images or videos and sorta photoshoping them together in a sophisticated way. tweaking this or that and then spitting out a final product. Like you said, the lav placement, and stuff... this is just warping an image basically.
27:47 Marques... that phrase already exists, you don't need to make a new and worse one in the form of "everything you do is platforming" the phrase is "All press is good press."
For Andrew, slightly relevant to Fisker going bankrupt, forever ago you responded to a comment I made talking about whether you trust Rivian after that price adjustment they made. Since then, has your trust been slowly repaired, or has anything else happened that has you skeptical still? I think since then they've assuaged my concerns, so I was curious what your thoughts were.
We had dozens of plum trees in our yard when I was growing up. I can't fathom how many plums I've eaten in my lifetime. I attribute my iron stomach (at least partialy) to all the barely-ripe plums I just couldn't wait to eat when I was a kid. 😋 The sweet-sour taste of yellow plums that were stll just a bit green was the best!
my fav image generator prompt is to try and get like a photo realistic cat dj in club atmosphere using vinyl decks looking over a crowd towards the stage, rarely get a one that doesn't have the cat dj at the front and crowd behind. if i just want a cat dj its a lot better i have hundreds, but there's a few actual real good ones, perfect positioning etc. using a existing image and replacing the person with a cat dj using something like Photoshop did this so much better, but my free trial ran out, can't justify subscription! studied multimedia and photography with photoshop over 20yrs ago but haven't ever done that job.
Two weeks off, you guys enjoy and have a great break. As a request hit me with two episodes in the catalog and I will use those to wash my dishes next week.
i sent this question to everyone and after much arguing and throwing things at each other (aka a slack thread) and we kinda cheated 😅: - Ep. 148: 7 keys to the Internet (Bonus is Ep. 166 secret history of the internet since it's basically a two-parter) - Ep. 246: Fediverse explained
Andrew is just prompting what we all wish. The first video kinda has a 1995 vibe aside from the messed up cup but then they just get worse and worse looking
The first two Stanley Cup renders: the logos are in "photographic focus" while their faces are not, same with the phone review, the phone and the guy's face are in focus, but the hands (in between) were not.
When I buy any computer it asks me which browser I want to use and then when I start any of the browsers it asks me which search engine I want to use. There are at least 10 options and displayed in random order. Is it an EU thing or its the same in the US?
I know plum. Though I feel strongly that many people in USA may not know about quite a few fresh fruits and vegetables. Similarly how most of the world may not know what tailgating is.
Looking at what it did with SpongeBob and taking into account Google's previews shenanigans, I will not be surprised if the video of the dude reviewing the phone was basically an actual video with a face switch and color alterations. Colors: the colors of the new iMacs are more intense, and the color is returning to the homes too, in particular kitchens so maybe he will be right in 2026.
Thanks for a great year gentlemen, we learned a lot, mainly how funny a well placed "Shut up Ellis!" could be! Cheers!
wow i cannot believe we forgot that one!
I really feel like a nerd, too; I yelled that at my TV - and then felt horrible, otherwise. Now I see it's just a thing, and ... uh ... Reasons. Cheers, Ellis! 🍻

that's really awesome to hear thank you!
God, that was an amazing opening clip. Shout out to David for eulogizing a real one. Google Assistant: gone, but not forgotten.
RIP Google Assistant
Enjoy being with you guys every Friday morning!
is anyone going to tell him?
@@hisgrandmajestytell me what
That crane looming over the mountain lake was INSANE!!!

congrats on amazing 2024 waveform pod !! excited for what the new year will bring, perhaps more dishes 🧐
Always look forward to hanging out w you guys every Friday, happy holidays, stay safe!
Always just so excited to see what the trivia questions are 😂
22:19 that joke made Marques a little uncomfortable 😂

31:40 He's talking about the GTA V videos.
Wish you guys all the best ! Have fun on ur vacation and happy holidays
Thanks team! Enjoy the holidays, really enjoy your podcast. It's the only one I watch the video stream, since you bring such a nice ambience together in the room
I discovered this podcast this year, and I absolutely love it! I also love plums 😂
Such a bittersweet episode now that it’s ended; thanks for your dedication guys! Looking forward to hangin’ with y’all again 2025 🎉Happy Holidays!
David your sweater is just fire 🔥.
1:42:19 Yes for plum. Could be regional, please categorize the response based on region. From Oregon here.
I enjoyed switching to video of this wvfrm episode!
Love you guys❤😂
16:19 Keybase was so promising and had so many great ideas and features. Probably the most friendly version of PGP and web-of-trust ever built.
Best soundbite usage of the year has to be the "whoops" dropped after Google was declared a monopoly
Curious to the researchers, yes, AI doesn't seem so useful, but I'm curious how ya'll have found NotebookLM?
David lookin slightly offended at the Captain2Phones reference like "what'd u say bout my old roomie"
Great video guys (maybe the best one this year?) and I hope you all have a great holiday away from work. Not gonna lie if your personnel lineup ever changes, I'm pretty sure I will cry and I'm almost 65 years old and don't need the misery.

Wow! Those veo videos are really impressive!

Keep it up guys

I've never felt older than when David said "I'm old enough to remember back in 2015"

Same bruh same

My favourite tech podcast on this platform! Keep up the good work guys.
Happy holidays
Will it just be the podcast taking a break or are you guys off for the rest of the year? because that would be awesome.
A large proportion of my watch time is while washing dishes, loading and unloading the dishwasher, cleaning the kitchen, folding clothes 🤣
Bingo! Lets gooo! Cheers to a great 2025 🎉

My grandma had plum trees in her yard! That was one of the best things about summer growing up
The best, waveform is always S tier
shrimp is bugs and plums is eggs
I'm so early I don't see mess that bots will make in few seconds now
16 seconds after upload, CRAAZY
i'm trying really hard to keep up and delete usually for the first 15 minutes after publish 😅 after that it's chaos
- adam
@Waveform Yeah, we all are waiting for RUclips's solution for it.
What a year! Thank you Waveform for the awesome year for helping get through Friday before the weekend :)
Great year for the podcast, love hanging out with you guys here! Cant wait for 2025 🎉🎉🎉
In my country, Lebanon, we eat plums every day in the spring season. we also eat baby plums when they’re still sour and green, with salt.
53:27 I was literally washing dishes when he said this
Pulling that Mew is roughly 1/500 odds
30:02 I actually don't think this is generated from noise. I think they are taking still images or videos and sorta photoshoping them together in a sophisticated way. tweaking this or that and then spitting out a final product. Like you said, the lav placement, and stuff... this is just warping an image basically.
32:37 could be used for an ad or RUclips intro
Thanks for 2024, lads. Happy holidays!
Thanks for a great year, guys. I’ll also be taking two weeks off from work. Happy holidays everyone!
My Dishwasher just broke, time to wash dishes.
I used to eat plums weekly when i was in middle school. They are heavily underrated
Andrew describing GTA clips on tiktok is the greatest thing ever🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Car ramps gaps i was rolling around
58:45 Marques being in a controversy wasn't on anyone's 2024 bingo card tbh
Well done this past year gentlemen, it was a great year of fun and info! I look forward to 2025, Happy Holiday's 🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁
I can’t even imagine my life sans plums
Also we are tied up with Dbrand so take that with a grain of salt. Nice!
It's insane to me that so many people haven't had a plum before!
27:47 Marques... that phrase already exists, you don't need to make a new and worse one in the form of "everything you do is platforming" the phrase is "All press is good press."
42:09
You know it has worked hard to reach that mountain peak!! XD
For Andrew, slightly relevant to Fisker going bankrupt, forever ago you responded to a comment I made talking about whether you trust Rivian after that price adjustment they made.

34:47 I just saw the N J in the devils logo ... wow
my fav image generator prompt is to try and get like a photo realistic cat dj in club atmosphere using vinyl decks looking over a crowd towards the stage, rarely get a one that doesn't have the cat dj at the front and crowd behind. if i just want a cat dj its a lot better

- Ep. 246: Fediverse explained
@@Waveform Both are great episodes they will be the rewatches for the break. ❤
It's been a GREAT year with you, gents. Come back refreshed in the new year. Looking forward to more insights 🎉
Andrew is just prompting what we all wish. The first video kinda has a 1995 vibe aside from the messed up cup but then they just get worse and worse looking
1:06:37 lol great edit on the triple screen collective yes
You guys need to turn up the volume on your audio clips cause they can be very hard to hear what it’s saying
The first two Stanley Cup renders: the logos are in "photographic focus" while their faces are not, same with the phone review, the phone and the guy's face are in focus, but the hands (in between) were not.
…and Ellis just mentioned it!
I didn't think ArR and a drone could kill Vr a more beautiful way
I'm from Singapore and have to commend Ellis for pronouncing Tampines right on the money, Bingo, let's go! haha
21:54 Trust in the Heart of the Cards 🃏
31:42 Game is BeamNG Drive btw and is the only reason why I bought a gaming PC 😂😅
I fell asleep for nearly the whole episode. Stat that!
My brother pulled an insane pack with a gold Mew Ex along with a few other really rare cards, it was insane! So jealous Adam!
yes, I've had a plum and yes, they're pretty good
Nothing makes a Friday complete like listening to waveform. Will miss you guys over the next 2 weeks
read this as 2 years and my heart dropped lmao
If those wheels locked up like that the car would’ve front flipped
It's surreal to see a rare Google W
1:06:33 awesome edit
When I buy any computer it asks me which browser I want to use and then when I start any of the browsers it asks me which search engine I want to use. There are at least 10 options and displayed in random order.
Is it an EU thing or its the same in the US?
My favorite podcast is here
45:00 did no one notice the kid had blood on his fingers??
Can't wait to see Ellis lie across the main table while apologizing to Microsoft
I hate AI, but I would have loved to see a comparison between Veo and Sora, same prompt in both, compare lol.
I know plum. Though I feel strongly that many people in USA may not know about quite a few fresh fruits and vegetables. Similarly how most of the world may not know what tailgating is.
Ellis heard take a dab and thought of something completely different lol.
I recently switched to Safari - I LOVE tab groups and how I can pick up from any device where I left off.
Does Ellis know you don't have to pay to get developer beta updates
Looking at what it did with SpongeBob and taking into account Google's previews shenanigans, I will not be surprised if the video of the dude reviewing the phone was basically an actual video with a face switch and color alterations. Colors: the colors of the new iMacs are more intense, and the color is returning to the homes too, in particular kitchens so maybe he will be right in 2026.
Glad to say Nintendo switch 2 brought me here 😂
I don't remember ever eating a plum. I'm pretty sure I did but it's a very unmemorable fruit for me. lol
I understand where you are coming from Andrew 😂 31:37
