I am so glad David is a permanent fixture now. What a gem of a human
He was recently promoted to the co director title for this podcast:)
❤ah
is David a permanent host now??? :D
love the team
yup yup!
@@PerryPerfectPerson absolute L opinion. Every single member of the WVFRM Podcast is NEEDED and a great part of the Team, obviously including Andrew
@@kaandalgic1883 well he has definitely gotten better at not interrupting people. So Im not as annoyed anymore.
@@PerryPerfectPerson Guess Andrew's not too huge with the tiger demographic! 😆 but yeah, for me Andrew is WVFRM, WVFRM is Andrew
@@itslavendare lol no the Tigers aren’t living for miss Andrew. But he is original
That horoscope talk was hilarious. I could see Marques' soul leave his body when David shared how he checks the weather lol I think I'd stick to just going outside. Great episode!
I've been waiting for this for like 3 hours. I normally listen to the podcast when I cook so it's really been a bummer to cook without it.
Plus the food isn’t as tasty. 😋
U can listen in Spotify
@@monishn15 I like watching the videos
@@ronaldojoe3011 hope the food was good though
@@totallynottwo5727 it was excellent. I made Alfredo
Always loving the insights from David. Also Just love the classic combo of Marques and Andrew. The balance and chemistry that all three have is amazing.
Andrew’s face when Marques said picture element 😂😂😂😂😂
Also so happy David is a permanent(?) host now. He’s a gem.
Today i realised just how much this podcast means to me. Been waiting for this all day!
This victory dance from Marques at the end lol 1:02:18 🤣
''6-9 weeks''.. This is the first time i feel like Marques is not some kind of super human. Im glad i witnessed it otherwise i wouldnt believe it
🤣💀
Hi, time stamp pls?
@@abayomioluwa 58:26
Quite sure Ellis got a Homepod notification his house was on fire
"Wait, you DON'T know the answer?!" David and Andrew should have their own show!
david's mind is something else
I love how your feelings towards 3rd party Twitter apps are so different than some of the other older podcast hosts. Most notably, Twitter didn't invent the concept of using a blue bird as logo or even the word "Tweet". The official Twitter app was also acquired. Oh and also @ mentions and #hashtags weren't invented by Twitter themselves. That's why the death of 3rd party Twitter apps hit the community so hard.
We should definitely think about the environmental impacts of just coming out of new models of products every month. Having every single company come out with a new car/phone/tv/bar of soap every time they make a tiny improvement only hurts our future
While I certainly understand and can sometimes agree with that point, most people aren't going to upgrade for a tiny improvement. For instance if Tesla adds a slightly better headlight design, 99.9999% of people aren't going to sell their Tesla to buy the new one because of that tiny update.
@@jeffreysmith4586 I get that people may not upgrade every time a new car comes out. But I was thinking that coming out with a new model once a month, even if no one buys it, compared to once a year for example will lead to more waste
@@mason4099 The car was going to be manufactured anyway, it's not like they're building because 1 person wants it. It was already being built. The tree was already cut down. The metal was already made. It was just sitting in a warehouse until Tesla bought it.
Not trying to be a downer but spend an hour researching the working of manufacturing and supply and demand.
@@mason4099 how’s there more waste? The cars/phones are going to be made either way. How’s it a waste to throw new features in them. Imagine Samsung releasing the S23 in February and by August they are putting a more efficient battery in it. What extra waste was there involved in that?
@@YSPDJapan you missed the point
Man that part with the muzzle made me crying laughing on the floor so hard. The way Marquees brought it up was just genius. Love the episode.
I’m a medical student in the US. The exam that chatGPT passed was the USMLE STEP 1. Yea the exam is pass/fail and you need about a 60% to pass. It is incredibly hard to pass fyi. 60% seems low, but it’s incredibly difficult and NOT a guaranteed pass. It can dictate doctors careers. All this to say that chatGPT passing these exams is nothing to scoff at!
Why have I never subbed to this before. This is exactly the content I love, more in-depth look at a few topic over a decent timeframe.
Getting a bonus question is so nice, hope they do more of them
Hearing you guys talk about this third party Twitter app explains soooooo much.
I’ve been so confused as to why people use Twitter. I’ve always said how absolutely horrendous the Twitter app is and how the experience is so convoluted with ads, threads upon threads upon threads and content from people who you don’t follow.
This makes sense now.
Wow another great episode ❤ thanks guys!
13:30 - That focus! So crisp :P
Y’all should discuss the tech in electric assist bicycles. Those are the future of individual mobility (especially for the majority of our daily trips that are less than 5 kilometers!)
This was a very funny episode. Love David on the show, I hope he is staying!
Wow, what an absolutely clutch trivia answer by Marques.
Loving the trio dynamic.
I am totally in love with David rocking a Chromebook on the podcast! I daily-drove one for two years until I sold it to a friend. Honestly, many people don't need anything more.
What Andrew is talking about with Twitter using 3rd party app is that in 2011 Twitter bought TweetDeck and used the TweetDeck UI with Twitters own skin on it for their official desktop app for Windows and MacOS then in 2016 they killed the TweetDeck UI style app and made a much more simple desktop app that looks more like their website.
I like how the waveform in the intro is like an eye opening up and turning into a normal waveform. This symbolizes the unity of video and audio coming together as well as the option to stream audio only or with video. Very well done.
Andrew reading "the terms & conditions" at the end of each episode always sends me 🤣🤣🤣
Cool! Thanks for sharing it ✌️
THIS WAS A GREAT EPISODE
Them guessing how long it takes for an apple tree to grow fruit simply had me DYING 🤣
From a fellow weather nerd, I’ve been using Carrot for a long time and it only gets better and better. The customization options for your display are unparalleled.
Y’all are wildn out. Great show
I study electrical engineering and used chatgpt during my (open-book) exams. It definitely helps narrow down answers to questions and you can take key words or ideas from it, but it rarely give you the correct answer at my level unfortunately. When given complex questions, often it'll say something fundamentally wrong like "inverse Fourier transform (IFT) transforms time domain to frequency domain". when it gets something wrong like IFT - that has such a clear cut definition - it makes you doubt every answer its given you. it's still honestly faster to just use ctrl+F on your lecture slides and google lol.
I like how all of David's shots were focused on the water bottle in the bottle right corner haha
Great informative podcast
So the Apple Ladder trap video is confirmed!
Andrew and Marques when you do make this video, I would love to see 2 things
1 - A comparison to the popcorn sizing basically, what they call decoy effect I believe
2 - loss leader products to get people into an ecosystem
i used relay for a while but then tried Sync for reddit and it was the best thing I did in 2022.
Ryan Hall is the only Meteorologist that hasn't lied about how snow is going to impact us in the West! Great channel! I enjoy that I watch the same guy as MKBHD!
I want to compliment you on that very crisp water bottle 😅 (Also most apple trees are Not grown from seed, but by grafting or you may not get very good apples)
lmao thanks 😅 and oh interesting! next trivia question muahaha
Horoscope app for weather...
I'm dying... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
4:20 the supply chain video I can't wait
not even 30 seconds into the video and i'm already laughing thanks to David
- best podcast on yt 🖤
I was thinking it wasn’t coming out today!
1:02:27 Just checked and apparently voxel is originated from pixel as well. It keeps the x from the original word and changes the pi to vo for volume(tric) element or volumetric pixel according to some other people
As a college student who is really bad to starting a paper chatgpt has been super helpful
YES CARROT WEATHER I've been using it for so long and it's amazing :D
46:48 that's exactly how I check the weather.
Aye new Waveform
Has the MKBHD Team ever tested out the iOS Continuity Camera iPhone webcam feature? I've yet to see how that feature functions in varying recording situations.
BTW your producer cam is focused on that water bottle in the foreground :)
I’m happy Marques found a weather app 😂😂
11:10 this is an excellent strategy
Will have to give Carrot a try. Here in the Netherlands we have Buienradar which shows radar views of the upcoming weather but it's annoying a hell when we're on vacation and I'm missing out on it.
9:36 My ev shortlist includes the BMW i4, Polestar 2 and the Taycan
I love the look on Marques face when talking about weather apps. It is the parent / manager look of "I created this, and I'm questioning my life choices"
Nice Episode, a mashup of two words is called a "Portmanteau" Pixel from (the two words it comes from, no spoiler here!) I learned that from the Goat freestyler Harry Mack!
That’s funny, but I‘m actually looking at the in focus bottle😅
I, 100%, thought that the Mutalk was a prank when I first heard about it.
Wich Chromebook is David using here? Thank you for the great episode 🙏
I like the content and amazing attention to detail on information. Thank you for review.
I’m planning to get one for myself.
16GB/512Gb m2 pro.
Hopefully 16GB will be a good choice as a graphic developer. This is for my personal hobby projects.
That water bottle steeling the focus
1:03:02 They should really make a tech themed crossword riddle with these names
We use an M1 iMac on an arm in our kitchen. White bezels are PERFECT for it, and M1 is more than plenty for casual web browsing, and media playing over HomePods
Mutalk currently is in the state of having good sound reduction but bad sound quality. ppl are self implanting something like a lav mic into it to sound better, but consider the price, a lot of ppl are selling it straight after they recieve the pre-orders.
I have been using chatGPT this semester for writing papers, and it can't write anything over 500 words. No matter how much information I give it, it can't write a proper full essay yet. But I did feed it my class book for one subject, and it answered everything on the quiz correctly, but it took me some time to feed it just one chapter.
If it can take more information at once, it will be amazing at taking classes with no essays for you.
I really really like this podcast but maybe try to add more visuals into the video version... for example when talking about the muzzle at the end it would be great to see what they're referring to :) much love
but they did?
Love to see it
On iPhone, the regular weather app included all of the features and information that Dark Sky did.
Love David's insights. though he sounds really similar to marques so when im listening audio only I often get confused haha
The Twitter problem with mentions Maqruez had might not be related to the app but to the phone or OS which he is using. That's the reason why I switched from premium Xiaomi phone to iPhone 14 Pro because apps on iPhone actually works how they supposed to do, meaning notifications/content are refreshed and are coming on time, on Xiaomi they were delayed or not coming at all.
Instead of like button, i want a clap or high five for wvfrm podcasts. RUclips do something!
Def agree that DALL-E's output isn't very frameable, but Midjourney's AI image generation is amazing. Would love to hear Tim's take on Midjourney on a future show.
Hot take Andrew,
Vanced is actually awesome.
1) Because RUclips premium is not a thing everywhere, so Vanced is the only way to get an ad free experience, which doesn't work as well anymore since they shut down the API, but the big reason still to use it is for background play
2) Bro, you have to see how corrupt, exploitative, and down right disgusting the Ads are in rest of the world - all moderation efforts from these big ad tech companies are aimed towards western English speaking societies, over here in east, moderation is a fairy tail, reporting an ad takes 20 steps, try reporting an ad someday
3) Even if RUclips premium becomes a thing, listen man, average income being around 200USD a month - a lot of people can't afford that. A lot of people don't know how to get vanced either. But for the people who want to get rid of malware ads - Vanced is the only option - till it works as it is dying right now.
So just a different perspective.
You can switch to ReVanced ;)
According to an article from _Gear Patrol,_ "WH" stands for "Wireless Headphone" and "WF" stands for "Wireless Free".
I love hearing a shout-out to best Reddit app Apollo 🙌
This was a chaotic episode.
One episode on AI Test Kitchen. It would be nice
Marques with the Curry range for the 2 points 🤣
I've been using Chat GPT to put in my work and ask if I met the requirements of the assignment. Sometimes I'll ask it to give me an example of an answer but what I submit generally doesn't match what Chat GPT puts out, it just gives me different ideas on how to answer and what might work.
1:01:55 That's the proof, ladies and gentlemen, of Marques playing Wordle every day.
Actually, according to ChatGPT, David is correct that an apple tree from seed can take up to 15 years to grow. But in general, they do take 6-8 years.
Always wait for the RUclips drop ❤❤❤
Im my first class of the semester, my teacher said that GPT isn't really human because they could confidently tell a lie (as in inacurracy, not as in making a deliberate lie). I counterargued that, considering what we're seeing more and more, that makes it actually more human than the other way round.
I'm not sure if anybody has read scythe But this is definitely version one of the thundercloud. And even though I've read the books, I'm still excited about it. Just the pure potential
Front hole is just a camera, each package was $5000 . Pilot, Plus and performance with and additional leather package with cooled seat for even more. So in add ons it would have been nearly $20K.
Oh and all the specs are available on their site.
As for range, my dual motor does 250 miles with ease and consistently. As for a bigger battery, who has time to stop and charge for an hour. You can fill a semi truck with 600 gallons faster than that.
I hope you guys give Mastodon a try now that those developers went and made some sick clients for it
I think we forgot to mention the absolutely INSANELY WEIRD mac mini pricing history. Imagine a hill, where the hight is the equivolent to the price. It might as well be driving up down a million mountains.
2:42 *fewer chips. It's a countable number so you use fewer, not less.
Speed run middle school is a great band name
A door is a physical object that at least partially blocks a going through space (the going through space can be created by the presence of a door) that has 2 states, open and closed
A door can create a going through place so that a door can exist by itself. A door is still a door if it's not in a doorway
They need to follow up on the AI layoff section with the fact that the pager duty ceo literally did the exact same thing and quoted the same MLK quote
Luv from india mkbhd❤️❤️
I'd love to see an episode with Dieter Bohn
if the form factor was the Daft Punk android helmets, maybe. I’m already in a sim rig with gloves anyways
Can you use things like spaces on third-party, Twitter apps, or when they were available?
The big issue with the steady improvements in the auto industry is going to be parts availability. If someone like Tesla changes a part mid-year on a vehicle, they may have issues getting an older part to fix a problem because the new part doesn't fit or work the same as the older one. It is better to have distinct model years where very little changes between cars built at the beginning vs the end of the "year". Turning cars into tech has more upside than down but making it harder to fix issues is a big down.
ANYONE who has teenage kids - Mutalk looks100% a thing I'd get!
Have you considered changing a theme song of this pod ?
It sounds a little childish :D
Love your team
15:30 a new generation of a car after a couple years isn’t a face lift, face lift is changes just a couple small things versus a new verison
