08:31.000 --> 08:37.000 Like you've seen, you've been around some electronics, some bullshit where you like leaned on one. 08:37.000 --> 08:38.000 Like, fuck. 08:38.000 --> 08:44.000 I remember a whole chain of fucking, um, slot machines that were all grounded through the fucking grounded networking cables. 08:44.000 --> 08:45.000 Do you? 08:45.000 --> 08:46.000 Yup. 08:46.000 --> 08:47.000 Wow. 08:48.000 --> 08:49.000 Yeah, man. 08:49.000 --> 08:58.000 And the only reason they found out about it is because, uh, people were complaining that cause they leaned on, if they were playing one machine and they leaned on another one, they were getting shocked. 08:58.000 --> 08:59.000 Yup. 08:59.000 --> 09:06.000 So yeah, dude, you see some crazy shit when you start messing with electronics. 09:06.000 --> 09:07.000 Right. 09:07.000 --> 09:09.000 And so that's all, that's all I'm saying. 09:09.000 --> 09:12.000 Like, um, and, and I think they can even make you see things sometimes. 09:12.000 --> 09:13.000 Right. 09:14.000 --> 09:15.000 Uh, sorry. 09:15.000 --> 09:16.000 I'm not calling you. 09:16.000 --> 09:20.000 I'm not saying that you don't, you don't know what you saw. 09:20.000 --> 09:21.000 So, you know, that's not. 09:21.000 --> 09:23.000 Well, yeah, no. 09:23.000 --> 09:26.000 Well, I don't know what I saw, but I know it was crazy. 09:26.000 --> 09:27.000 Right. 09:27.000 --> 09:28.000 You know what I mean? 09:28.000 --> 09:29.000 What I'm saying. 09:29.000 --> 09:29.000 Yeah. 09:29.000 --> 09:34.000 But I just, I do think like electronics make, make weird shit happen in front of you sometimes. 09:34.000 --> 09:35.000 And you're like, why did that happen? 09:35.000 --> 09:36.000 Right. 09:36.000 --> 09:38.000 And then later on you're like, oh yeah. 09:38.000 --> 09:39.000 Yeah. 09:39.000 --> 09:50.000 Well, the conversation I have with my wife usually is, I, I won't argue that something that you can't explain did or didn't happen. 09:50.000 --> 09:57.000 Because clearly something happened and you don't know what it caused or what was the cause. Right. 09:57.000 --> 10:03.000 And whatever you want to attribute it to doesn't matter because we don't know what it was. 10:03.000 --> 10:15.000 So whether you say it was an angel or a demon or a flying frog, it doesn't matter because it literally, we don't know. Right. 10:15.000 --> 10:16.000 Right. 10:16.000 --> 10:19.000 So do you think context does matter with stuff like that? 10:19.000 --> 10:37.000 Well, that's exactly what I was going to say. I think people put their mind in, I put themselves in a mindset. Like, like, I don't want to say like they make themselves susceptible to that. But I, but I think you, you do put yourself in a mindset. 10:37.000 --> 11:06.980 Like, it's, it's almost like, uh, like hypnosis, right. Where they're like, oh, some people can't, can't be hypnotized. I'm like, yeah, because some people don't believe in that shit. Right. The people that can be hypnotized. Like you have to be in a mindset that, that this can happen. I'm, I'm going to be hypnotized. Right. And it's, and I'm not, not equating those. I'm just saying like, that's the type of mindset. Like if you go to a big scale, 11:07.000 --> 11:36.980 scary place thinking, Ooh, I'm going to find some ghosts, then anything that happens there, you're going to be like, Ooh, was that a ghost? Or even, Ooh, that was a ghost versus you go to a big, scary building. You're like, wow, this place is a rundown piece of shit. And something falls over. You're like, yeah, see, it's falling apart. Right. Uh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I don't, I don't, I agree with you to, to, to a certain, to a certain extent, because I, 11:37.000 --> 12:06.980 I, I, I do, I am, it's weird because I, I am a weird believer in, in things that, um, I think there is like a whole level of shit that we can't see. Right. Like it's just, the world is, is built on perspective. Right. A hundred percent. And obviously I'm a, I'm a skeptic believer. If that makes any sense. Yeah. I'm not going to tell you it doesn't exist. Cause I can't prove it doesn't exist. But at the same time, I'm not going to say it absolutely exists. Cause my, where's your proof? 12:06.980 --> 12:25.900 Right. Yeah. I'm with you. I'm with you. That's kind of how I feel as well. I don't know. Agnostic believer. I'm very similar with religion on that. Right. Yeah. Yeah. I am too, too, too. Yeah. Well, I don't know. I don't want to talk about religion. 12:27.780 --> 12:34.160 like that's the same kind of perspective i have on religion right sure so my wife used to used to 12:34.160 --> 12:42.140 watch um the show called uh ghost hunters i loved that i loved ghost okay so she was all into that 12:42.140 --> 12:47.040 shit and i was like i would sit down and be like this is the hokiest fucking show i've ever seen 12:47.040 --> 12:53.680 oh my god did you hear that sound oh my god the door closed and i'm like what the fuck well they 12:53.680 --> 13:00.980 had that other dude on there erin the guy that like the the skeptic right and the dude dude was 13:00.980 --> 13:05.700 always willing to go off by himself and i would just look at her i'm like yeah that'd be me like 13:05.700 --> 13:09.600 i don't give a fuck leave me down here by myself what the fuck's gonna happen to me i don't give a 13:09.600 --> 13:15.240 shit right and then like the longer the show went the more he was like oh my god something actually 13:15.240 --> 13:23.360 touched me oh my god dude and i was like all right so is he being converted to a believer or is he 13:23.360 --> 13:30.020 like trying to get ratings or like what's happening here listen you gotta be a bit of a believer to be 13:30.020 --> 13:36.600 a hunter even a skeptic right right right like i'm gonna go show you there's nothing i'm gonna spend 13:36.600 --> 13:42.960 my free time going out to show you there's nothing right it's like okay well like hold on right you 13:42.960 --> 13:48.000 wouldn't the easiest way just to be like yeah it's not worth my time right right i don't care 13:48.000 --> 13:54.800 right um yeah so you know he was in from the start like he was a bit of a believer i think 13:54.800 --> 13:59.160 everybody is he goes looking for those things right right i mean you kind of have to be right because 13:59.160 --> 14:03.500 like you're not you're not gonna be like there's no water in the desert but i'm gonna walk around 14:03.500 --> 14:12.040 looking for water uh okay yeah it doesn't even really make sense but i i like that people 14:12.040 --> 14:18.700 put out skeptical viewpoints i i do like that they do that yeah me too they shouldn't stop 14:18.700 --> 14:24.540 i don't know my daughter watches one on youtube where it's a bunch of young kids and it's a very 14:24.540 --> 14:33.300 similar setting whatever and they they go to these famously haunted locations some they do some 14:33.300 --> 14:38.880 fucking boathouse that they've been to a few times that oh my god we're all and it's almost the exact same 14:38.880 --> 14:44.820 thing where all right we got permission to spend the night here and then i'm like all right and my 14:44.820 --> 14:52.860 daughter watches it and i'm like do you believe this that's real i'm like okay all right well 14:52.860 --> 14:59.640 would you do would you do like one of those scare shows like uh where like it's just hey you have to 14:59.640 --> 15:06.600 have this camera on you for whatever overnight in like a hospital you know a fucking haunted hospital 15:06.600 --> 15:11.800 or something you would do one of those as long as they don't care if i fall asleep i don't give a 15:11.800 --> 15:20.780 shit that's funny uh how about you see that would you do one i don't know dude i would be interested 15:20.780 --> 15:30.260 but also like i don't know you don't want to go out crying yeah you know i mean i'd probably i don't 15:30.260 --> 15:37.340 know i'd probably do it just be like hell yeah i did it but like you know like i said i believe so 15:37.340 --> 15:42.460 that yeah you're right just being in there in a dark ass hospital i'd be freaked out dude i would 15:42.460 --> 15:48.880 be freaked out i'm like i said i'm not i don't want to say i don't believe right but um yeah most of 15:48.880 --> 15:52.480 the time i'm just like yeah there's not you know it's fun stories blah blah blah but going in 15:52.480 --> 15:57.560 something like that i would be like oh fuck this fucking place what a little dark holes is gonna 15:57.560 --> 16:05.220 get you just you gotta turn these corners and it's like no dude yeah but i i would i would probably do 16:05.220 --> 16:13.220 it just because you know like i said it it seems so interesting so yeah so yeah all right on on that 16:13.220 --> 16:19.180 level would i do it absolutely because i would love to find something to prove me wrong that's kind of 16:19.180 --> 16:26.740 where i'm at i'd love to that'd be like to be like holy shit but you know this shit's real my 16:26.740 --> 16:34.500 imagination gets going and it's like oh man oh yeah no i'm with you dude well but so so that goes 16:34.500 --> 16:40.000 right back to what i was saying it's like you get in that mindset right yeah like i'm here i'm there's 16:40.000 --> 16:45.780 supposed to be ghosts here so any little thing that comes up you're like was that a ghost and then the 16:45.780 --> 16:53.860 longer you're there the longer it's like that must have been a ghost right i mean you know i mean if 16:53.860 --> 16:59.960 you can't explain it i'm not saying it is right but if i mean if you can't explain it any other way 16:59.960 --> 17:07.180 then it's just it's a it's just as as good a guess as anything else right yeah that's what i was saying 17:07.180 --> 17:13.760 earlier right so you can attribute it to whatever you want because it is just as solid as saying it 17:13.760 --> 17:20.440 was a flying frog right we don't know what it was so if you want to call it a ghost that is just as 17:20.440 --> 17:28.830 viable as an answer as anything else it's ironically we can tie this to my anti-road rage speech that i 17:28.830 --> 17:34.880 give my daughter like when people drive really stupid like you can get mad at them like that guy's a 17:34.880 --> 17:41.720 fucking moron or you can go wow i really hope his wife's okay he's driving really crazy he must be on 17:41.720 --> 17:47.180 his way to the hospital or if you want to be a little less morbid you could go man that guy really 17:47.180 --> 17:52.330 needs to take a shit yeah he's got to poop real bad god so that that's literally i've got my daughter 17:52.330 --> 17:59.020 now anytime someone cuts me off she goes he needs to poop really bad like exactly yep because it doesn't 17:59.020 --> 18:04.720 matter what the reason is dude's driving like an asshole either way why not make it something fun 18:04.720 --> 18:12.640 or funny this yeah and at least more a little positive huh right keeps me from getting irritated 18:12.640 --> 18:17.440 gives me a little chuckle it doesn't change anything that happened but why get mad right 18:17.440 --> 18:26.180 yeah so same same type of mentality i agree 100 i don't believe no notes i think that's i think that's 18:26.180 --> 18:37.920 perfect dude you guys want to hear uh another jeff yes yes yes hey this is jeff calling from london it's 18:37.920 --> 18:50.780 5 27 p.m on a saturday here and it's like 9 a.m saturday tacoma time maybe might even be friday there 18:50.780 --> 18:57.180 i don't know just got back from an outing we

take tacoma street and then decrease the size 19:22.000 --> 19:26.960 about a half a car length and that's about the the driving space you have 19:26.960 --> 19:34.110 anyway you cunts have a good time we'll check in later 19:34.110 --> 19:42.940 nice just picking up the lingo oh yes you can hear him you can hear him thinking about it right he's 19:42.940 --> 19:52.260 like should i say it i'm

i've driven in canada and mexico 20:11.560 --> 20:18.680 oh okay i guess those count yeah i call them good i've never had america's beard right 20:18.680 --> 20:28.060 well we'll see i'm not sure how

still okay everything you 22:01.340 --> 22:09.980 have to walk up hill but i edinburgh is a very hilly place but i still think tacoma beats it in the 22:09.980 --> 22:18.100 the steepness of the hills

um i had never done the seattle underground tour and i had lived there for like 23:16.100 --> 23:23.540 12 years and then she moved up there and i casually mentioned it in a conversation one day and she's 23:23.540 --> 23:30.820 like what's that and i told her i was like oh you know seattle was built on a on a flood plain and then 23:30.820 --> 23:36.880 they had a giant mudslide and it basically buried the whole city so they built on top of it and i just 23:36.880 --> 23:43.640 you know gave her the the brief rundown she's like what and i was like yeah so that was all she talked 23:43.640 --> 23:49.200 about for like weeks so we had to go do it we went on the tour and then it was like anytime someone 23:49.200 --> 23:56.440 came to visit we gotta go on the underground tour it's like okay

--> 35:01.500 i got i got home on tuesday and um i spent one night in oregon i drove uh from crescent city i did the 35:01.500 --> 35:08.690 little drive up howland hill road and did my hikes and did all the stuff and then it's crazy man when 35:08.690 --> 35:14.060 you get out of those and you get onto the other side there's this smith river and then once you get 35:14.060 --> 35:20.860 around smith river man it changes from like those woods to like this awesome like mountainous terrain 35:20.860 --> 35:27.420 it's pretty cool but i'm getting to grants pass oregon in that day and then i got up to uh roseburg 35:27.420 --> 35:33.100 maybe i think is where i stopped okay so you you put in some hours driving too though i put in a lot of 35:33.100 --> 35:36.860 hours of driving and each day i just because you know you get into oregon and there's like 35:37.420 --> 35:42.940 you know state park state park state park you know and even these little state parks dude i'm like 35:42.940 --> 35:49.020 dude i would come back here just for this just for this little tiny little state park that like i was 35:49.020 --> 35:55.020 by myself at you know sure and the coast but like you said the entire coast is just the entire coast is 35:55.020 --> 36:00.940 awesome that southern if you've never done the southern oregon coast you have to do it because it was just 36:00.940 --> 36:07.820 gonna say i i haven't we stopped at uh uh canna beach haystack rock okay that's the furthest we went down on 36:07.820 --> 36:16.300 the coast so yeah i've like i said way i've been down i've been down uh like i said uh sea lion caves 36:16.300 --> 36:25.020 which is i'm gonna say halfway down the coast a little more than halfway down the coast and then yeah once you 36:25.020 --> 36:31.730 pass that it's it just changes it's like all the big rocks and the you know just different beaches and 36:32.860 --> 36:39.100 um and then like natural bridges is super cool like you can literally walk across this like archway 36:40.060 --> 36:44.380 going over the water i went down to it and i literally uh the wind was blowing 36:46.300 --> 36:52.300 all my red flags my body were telling me do not do this so i didn't do it i didn't and i didn't but it was uh it 36:52.300 --> 36:57.730 was super cool you know you just got the this crazy just water down there and this arch and this you 36:57.730 --> 37:03.500 know this uh just water flowing through and you could walk across it was wild it was cool that's 37:03.500 --> 37:10.540 awesome yeah so southern southern oregon 1010 i mean all oregon really i should say but that first time 37:10.540 --> 37:21.420 i was i was fascinated and then man the trees dude the the redwoods i can't i can't explain it yeah got to do it 37:21.420 --> 37:27.020 really i really want to do redwood national force for sure i want to take my kid there you definitely 37:27.020 --> 37:31.900 should like i said i did that first one that the the not the uh the one down south because i would love 37:31.900 --> 37:36.860 to go see that's like where you can drive your car through the you know the big right yeah um so i 37:36.860 --> 37:44.460 didn't get that far south but uh even just that that northern jedediah smith was absolutely stunning 37:46.690 --> 37:51.420 that's saying a lot man from a guy who's lived in washington his whole life right so you see all my 37:51.420 --> 37:57.980 life doing some hiking doing stuff i mean these trees were i mean you look at these and i was like this is 37:59.900 --> 38:02.300 double or triple from the biggest trees i've ever seen 38:04.460 --> 38:11.100 just crazy that is so crazy um and also if you guys are star wars fans apparently they did some of the 38:11.100 --> 38:19.340 filming of star wars out in that forest on the ewok forest i believe so yeah it's indoor 38:21.170 --> 38:26.860 yeah it was on the back side of that and it was like private private land but um so not in the state 38:26.860 --> 38:34.540 park but basically you know miles away that was pretty cool there's a midwest tie they have a fort euchre 38:36.300 --> 38:44.620 like bob euchre like euchre the card game oh i don't know i don't know either of those things so 38:49.500 --> 38:54.860 yeah so that was fun uh thanks for letting me share yeah that was a great trip uh i suggest it anybody 38:54.860 --> 39:02.380 can do it yeah 101 man if people want to check out your pictures they can uh get on the discord um yeah 39:02.380 --> 39:09.660 i have a whole google drive of all my pictures drone pictures my camp snap pictures and my phone 39:09.660 --> 39:15.730 dude they were awesome how did that camp snap uh work out for you it's fine you know um what's funny 39:15.730 --> 39:21.730 is i all the pictures i was taken three times it would just die on me so i like there's uh parts where 39:21.730 --> 39:26.940 i didn't get to you know take pictures with that because it was just dead but just so you went through 39:26.940 --> 39:31.580 the battery quick just went through the battery you know just turn it on turn it off turn it on 39:31.580 --> 39:38.620 turn it off you know and oh yeah yeah just whatever uh dude it's hard to be your phone right i i like 39:38.620 --> 39:44.060 the idea and i know jeff loves his dude he thinks they're great and i put a link to him in every on 39:44.060 --> 39:49.660 every episode and they're they're not a sponsor we just throw a link out there right um but and i've 39:49.660 --> 39:54.380 thought about getting one because they just remind me of like just old school through a car right and 39:54.380 --> 39:58.060 that's why i like it because it's there you can't see what you're taking a picture of you know 39:58.060 --> 40:03.170 it's one of those like what wait till you freaking you know oh it had developed that's some big foot 40:03.170 --> 40:11.170 cameras with that is right there yeah and and then uh so it was great man yeah it did really good um 40:11.170 --> 40:15.980 some of the you know pictures turned out i didn't do any touch up or any whatever i just threw them on 40:15.980 --> 40:22.300 there but yeah we used to carry those disposable cameras around us when we were in the navy and we just 40:22.300 --> 40:27.420 carry them in our pockets and then we just pull them out and then snap pictures and then we call it random 40:27.420 --> 40:32.210 no look photography like we wouldn't look through the viewfinder we just hold them up and snap it with 40:32.210 --> 40:38.690 our thumb or whatever and we'd have them for months before they got finished and then we'd go develop 40:38.690 --> 40:45.980 the pictures and be like what the fuck is that oh shit i forgot about that it was so much fun people 40:45.980 --> 40:52.620 don't i i think you miss out on that right it was fun to finish a roll of film and take it in and 40:52.620 --> 40:57.500 hell yeah get it developed yeah wait right like it was so yeah it was so much fun that they they turned 40:57.500 --> 41:04.620 it into a like a two-hour thing right one hour photo dude one hour photo dude terrible robin williams movie 41:04.620 --> 41:10.860 the terrible movie i mean they turned it into fast food because people are like dude i can't wait 41:10.860 --> 41:18.140 fucking two weeks to see what's on me right right i need it now polaroids ain't doing it for me they're 41:18.140 --> 41:24.540 too expensive give me digital that one that's why everything's digital right like there is almost no film 41:24.540 --> 41:30.940 anymore oh dude i was watching a thing on uh data hoarders and i was like what the hell is that and they're 41:30.940 --> 41:36.690 like oh people that just collect digital stuff digital pictures and shit and they just never get 41:36.690 --> 41:41.170 rid of it and i was like who does that and then i looked over at my shelf i was like oh i have 11 41:41.170 --> 41:47.100 hard drives that are just sitting there full of stuff yeah just stuff they call those people historians 41:48.060 --> 41:56.460 yeah that's what i'm doing uh that's funny though because there is a whole um there is a like a theory 41:56.460 --> 42:02.140 that um there's going to be a point in time if anything happens and say we uh we lost digital 42:02.140 --> 42:08.300 like even right now right like there's been uh attacks in on russia's data centers right 42:08.300 --> 42:13.580 that data is gone it's gone right and so if something happens in the future 42:14.380 --> 42:20.620 um there's going to be this whole chunk of history where there was no no physical nothing physical 42:20.620 --> 42:28.690 remains right so no books are physically made so there's no uh so i mean no pictures of anything 42:28.690 --> 42:35.170 right like how cool is it sometimes when you see like um some of the very first pictures right because 42:35.170 --> 42:43.580 they suck i mean uh some of them are dope right some of them are cool i i like i i i like the the old 42:43.580 --> 42:49.340 pictures it's i hate when they're like all oh you can't really tell what this is but this was a picture 42:49.340 --> 42:53.980 of your great great grandma i'm like really because that shit is terrible if you told me that was a 42:53.980 --> 43:03.500 picture of a ghost i would believe you like kind of is now just just back yeah too soon too soon 43:05.900 --> 43:14.690 yeah your great great grandma uh but yeah but yeah i i like the old photos like i have i have a um 43:16.690 --> 43:21.340 i can tie everything back into religion just to irritate scott i have a family member who's a 43:21.340 --> 43:29.260 mormon and they're really big on lineage they are um so they uh my cousin's super big on the like 43:29.260 --> 43:36.300 family history and stuff but she's got she just collects all of the family photos for everybody 43:36.860 --> 43:43.100 i think that's super cool yeah i think it's awesome but like she goes through periodically and she's like oh 43:43.100 --> 43:48.780 hey here i have all these pictures that are just random ass pictures of you and your mom like holy 43:48.780 --> 43:55.020 shit i didn't even know those existed cool she's i'm gonna send you a care package like all right 43:55.020 --> 44:05.500 cool and then she she made uh canvases like through uh whatever shutterfly or whatever um of my my great 44:05.500 --> 44:12.460 grandfather when he was young and it's like oh holy shit that's that is pretty cool you know so yeah i i i'm 44:12.460 --> 44:19.420 i'm i'm just joking when i say that's bullshit but um yeah i i think that's cool as hell and i i do 44:19.420 --> 44:29.100 i think when uh when the uh uh uh what what are we gonna call this when the freaking ai takes over 44:29.100 --> 44:34.380 everything and and wipes out all of the e data yeah there's gonna be a big chunk of 44:34.380 --> 44:38.940 shit missing the eipocalypse the e-pocalypse yeah there you go eclipse 44:41.340 --> 44:45.420 i keep wanting to say a pinch what the hell is the thing that freaking wipes out all the 44:46.140 --> 44:47.020 electrical shit 44:49.180 --> 44:50.300 i'm having a brain fart 44:52.060 --> 44:55.340 emp emp emp emp yeah yeah when we 44:55.340 --> 45:00.060 when the emp hits and wipes out when we blow a giant emp to try to kill the ai that got loose 45:02.300 --> 45:04.140 might already be loose you never know 45:05.740 --> 45:12.540 hey we don't know that oh well fuck i had one more thing have you guys 45:13.340 --> 45:18.700 since we're talking about ai real quick i know i didn't bring this up in show notes or in before 45:19.420 --> 45:28.540 send it um have you guys ever heard of smart dust no uh no but i wish i had it out of yourself no you 45:28.540 --> 45:36.860 don't look at that it's like tiny um basically sensors or like millimeter long 45:38.860 --> 45:47.580 ai sensitive sensors iot sensors motes yeah they call them like dust motes yeah super tiny and they 45:47.580 --> 45:54.220 can kind of function as things this comes around every year they say but they're they are like a real 45:54.220 --> 46:01.420 working thing people are working on that's kind of nuts i mean yo how crazy is that do you got a 46:02.060 --> 46:11.260 description in front of you mike i do conceived at uc berkeley in the late 90s um it is well here um 46:12.140 --> 46:21.980 i'm gonna shameful plug here uh wikipedia i i am a sponsor i love wikipedia i do like wikipedia as well um 46:24.140 --> 46:31.900 micro electro mechanical system mems such as sensors robots and other devices that can detect 46:31.900 --> 46:37.260 light temperature vibration magnetism and chemicals they are usually operated on a computer network 46:37.260 --> 46:45.180 wirelessly and can be distributed over some area to perform tasks usually sensing through radio 46:45.180 --> 46:54.620 frequency identification they were originally uh concepted at uc berkeley uh they were pushed really 46:54.620 --> 47:01.740 hard by the military for surveillance operations and then it starts listing conspiracy theories 47:01.740 --> 47:07.020 and talking about chemtrails and they say um did you get down my god covid 19 47:08.460 --> 47:13.340 uh everyone everyone got them in the vaccines wow well because it's been around for so long and and 47:13.340 --> 47:17.500 just how crazy it sounds right but did you read it said the project led to a working moat 47:17.500 --> 47:25.420 smaller than a grain of rice oh yeah the very first one says uh uh i gotta do that where to say 47:28.060 --> 47:34.940 no longer than a grain of sand or a cubic millimeter that's fucking nuts man that's wild 47:37.020 --> 47:42.700 sorry that freaked me out i was like you could breathe that shit in man you might i might have them in 47:42.700 --> 47:50.540 me right now i mean i'm sure they think about that like that is probably part of the the test like thing is like 47:50.540 --> 47:58.220 maybe you could do internal testing of people with them right you could but i'm looking at it right now 47:58.220 --> 48:04.860 the problem they have is if it goes internal they lose the the ability to power them because most of 48:04.860 --> 48:11.180 them are solar powered yeah for now dude since the 90s fuck they've come up with come on man 48:12.220 --> 48:19.100 i'm just saying uh it does have it does list uh health care specialized neural dust or internal 48:19.100 --> 48:23.500 moats to monitor vital signs track glucose levels or assist in targeting drug delivery 48:24.860 --> 48:31.500 sounds cool right kind of until then you realize oh shit i just injected a bunch of ai 48:31.500 --> 48:38.060 fucking robots into my body bro this is just nanobots phase one is nanobots dude 48:38.700 --> 48:44.540 phase only phase one dude i know that's why it freaked me out is that it came out in the 90s 48:44.540 --> 48:46.220 that's just what they're telling you man 48:50.300 --> 48:56.140 the environmental impact accumulation of discarded silicon or non-biodegradable particles 48:56.940 --> 49:03.500 from these moats pose a contamination e-waste risk that's a lot of dust 49:06.460 --> 49:14.860 yeah dude it's kind of i don't know privacy and regulation ubiquitous invisible data collection 49:14.860 --> 49:18.780 raises significant legal ethical and surveillance concerns no shit 49:21.500 --> 49:28.940 uh that's good thanks scott never sleeping again whatever this should raise those those concerns 49:28.940 --> 49:35.260 probably doesn't yeah probably oh it it does no one's gonna act on it but it does raise the concerns 49:36.300 --> 49:45.020 uh i saw some uh armored fighting videos oh i discovered armored fighting in the last week or so 49:45.660 --> 49:54.940 um holy i didn't know i needed that in my life that's some uh that's some brutal are you talking 49:54.940 --> 50:03.020 about um armored mma so you're talking about like no hold bar well we can't say no holds barred but mma 50:03.020 --> 50:07.820 like it's full like go to the knockout trying to hurt each other it's not like the guys that 50:08.460 --> 50:16.300 kind of do it for a show at that restaurant this is straight up in an octagon i mean they have rules 50:16.300 --> 50:22.060 just like mma but this is straight up they have timed rounds and you just beat the 50:22.060 --> 50:30.620 fuck out of each other until somebody stops what are the rules uh that's a good question i don't know i 50:30.620 --> 50:36.220 just started watching videos and i was like holy shit this is awesome you know you can post the videos here 50:36.220 --> 50:37.660 that rules and regulations 50:40.460 --> 50:45.180 oh oh i have to download the rules oh that seems like a lot 50:46.940 --> 50:50.700 oh it is literally just like there's three rounds 60 seconds each 50:51.580 --> 51:04.140 60 seconds between there are no weight classes oh yeah you can do mixed mixed weapons uh you can only be on the ground for 10 seconds 51:06.220 --> 51:11.260 or what you lose oh that's exhibition sorry oh uh no they stand you up 51:12.060 --> 51:15.500 oh so they they don't let you there's no ground a pound with armor on i guess 51:16.380 --> 51:24.940 uh professional fights are three rounds that are 120 seconds uh there are weight classes in professional 51:26.940 --> 51:28.780 ground game is 15 seconds 51:31.500 --> 51:41.740 crowd match oh crown match all right so just like ufc right five rounds uh weight classes oh you cannot do 51:41.740 --> 51:53.100 mixed weapons weight classes yeah straw weight featherweight it's all the same titan weight over 300 51:53.100 --> 51:59.660 that's awesome that is awesome they should have that yeah super heavy weight is 265 to 300 and then 51:59.660 --> 52:06.140 titan is 300 and over that's crazy this is i wouldn't be in the heaviest weight class that's 52:06.140 --> 52:12.300 fucking awesome i think not what you might want to be dude you're armored right like i was kind of oh 52:12.300 --> 52:18.060 yeah did they weigh you with your armor on because i don't know that changes things a lot 52:18.860 --> 52:26.940 fighters must have the same weight class fighters can elect to fight up but not not down oh there so 52:26.940 --> 52:33.260 i could fight i could fight up yeah i would fight titan weight like give me all them fat bastards 52:35.100 --> 52:44.620 damn that's crazy yeah that is crazy but yeah so i was i was watching um here i'll throw i'll throw the 52:44.620 --> 52:56.060 link in here for the one that got me because damn um just they have these like buckler shields 52:56.860 --> 53:03.980 and they've got swords but dude they were just throwing straight punches to the face with those 53:03.980 --> 53:08.460 bucklers and i was like god that's gotta fucking ring your bell man 53:10.860 --> 53:17.900 uh dude a lot of people are into the these um like armored fighting things now like hema places you know 53:17.900 --> 53:27.420 what hema is no i think it's heme it might be hema but it's like a uh yeah historical european martial 53:27.420 --> 53:37.100 martial arts hema hema alliance oh okay um there's you can find classes all over and people do they get into 53:37.100 --> 53:44.460 it there's like group fights you can join where you could do like five on five and 12 on 12. 53:45.820 --> 53:50.380 that's when when you said when when you said it was crowd fights i thought that's where you were going 53:50.380 --> 53:57.820 i was like no fucking way i didn't see those videos on them when you sit um but yeah dude people are 53:57.820 --> 54:07.180 into this it's a thing man they had uh at the ren fair this year they had a an arena in there and it was 54:07.180 --> 54:16.460 that style of shit but i mean it was obviously foam everything but it was um they were tapping right 54:16.460 --> 54:24.220 so it was like smacking people in the head and shit to get your hits in and shit but not not nearly as 54:24.220 --> 54:31.340 entertaining as this shit oh i i i'm sure i i've seen some where they because they use the big pole 54:31.340 --> 54:39.420 pole axis you know the big long oh yeah haliburids and shit yeah man um you can you you can find them 54:39.420 --> 54:43.980 the more you watch these videos dude the more you're gonna find the more crazy fucking fight 54:43.980 --> 54:49.580 shit you're gonna see so i'm assuming the mixed weapons means that the both fighters have to have 54:49.580 --> 54:53.900 the same weapons meaning you can't have like somebody with a fucking sword and shield and 54:53.900 --> 55:00.140 somebody with a fucking pole axe yeah yeah i think so i think it looks like they have the same 55:00.140 --> 55:05.340 these guys are fucking they beat the shit out of each other though yeah wow yeah i'm watching right 55:05.340 --> 55:12.700 now it's crazy yeah it almost looks like their their armor i'll bet is a standard pseudo like i bet 55:12.700 --> 55:17.580 everybody has the same armor does that make sense yeah yeah because you can customize the colors and 55:17.580 --> 55:23.820 yeah so on the on the website where you can join um learn the rules and like they have the thing to buy 55:23.820 --> 55:30.300 the armor so i'm assuming like it's it's just like mma where like your gloves have to meet a standard 55:30.300 --> 55:32.940 and all that and everyone basically wears the same fucking clothes 55:36.140 --> 55:41.740 you know what i would i would not do this but i would um i was gonna try and make a joke about the 55:41.740 --> 55:47.980 pillow fighting one i had on here i would do that one i wouldn't do either one of them i'm 55:47.980 --> 55:52.380 fucking dude could you imagine getting knocked the out by a pillow at least this way you would earn 55:52.380 --> 56:00.380 some cred you're like yeah i got into an armored fight yeah but it looks like dude i i would be so 56:00.380 --> 56:06.380 claustrophobic in those in those helmets like especially if you're on the ground and getting your face 56:06.380 --> 56:11.980 punched in right uh yeah yeah can they do well so that's the thing is like they can only be on the 56:11.980 --> 56:21.020 ground for 15 seconds and it's it's they're a lot more strict about like you can't um like you can't 56:21.020 --> 56:27.740 attack the feet you can't hit their feet with the weapons you can't um i was just reading like you 56:27.740 --> 56:34.300 can't hit them in the neck and shit like it's that like there's a lot of fucking i mean it's pretty 56:35.580 --> 56:43.180 right i i say restrictive but um good you don't hit somebody in the neck with a sword though it looks 56:43.180 --> 56:47.100 like they're fucking hitting them in the neck oh not with the sword i guess that makes sense right 56:47.100 --> 56:53.260 that's what i'm saying all thrusts or stabs with the weapon are illegal two-handed weapons any thrust 56:53.260 --> 57:00.780 with the top or bottom of the weapon is illegal oh attempted stabbings anytime a fighter points 57:00.780 --> 57:06.300 the tip of their weapon at their opponent that could be deemed dangerous by the marshal so like like 57:06.300 --> 57:13.900 there's a lot of fucking you can't throw any throw that spikes a fighter's crown of the head 57:15.020 --> 57:17.740 into the ground oh so you can't throw them 57:20.620 --> 57:25.020 you can't drop them on their head you can definitely do judo throws because i've seen a bunch 57:25.020 --> 57:30.940 right right but you can't you can't throw them on their head yeah so any throw that spikes the 57:30.940 --> 57:36.060 fighter's crown of the head on the ground or any attempt to remove an opponent from the case so you 57:36.060 --> 57:40.620 can't throw them out of the cage yeah this is these guys are fucking nuts and you can definitely hit with 57:40.620 --> 57:47.420 the the back of the sword like the the pummel you can hit that way these guys are doing it like crazy no 57:47.420 --> 57:52.700 no no you can hit with the back of the sword but you can't you can't thrust stab right yeah you can't 57:52.700 --> 58:00.300 thrust you can't thrust i'm out i'm out no there's no thrusting in the champagne room oh sorry 58:01.260 --> 58:05.820 yeah these guys are fucking crazy man yeah i wouldn't do this i wouldn't either 58:08.940 --> 58:16.540 it's fun to watch though for sure wait a mma once a fighter makes three points of contact with the 58:16.540 --> 58:23.260 floor or a grounded opponent they may drop their weapon and continue the fight all right that's 58:23.260 --> 58:27.180 interesting so you can just fucking throw your sword down and just start throwing punches 58:29.420 --> 58:31.980 yeah maybe you just decide the sword isn't for you 58:35.020 --> 58:40.780 i don't know oh it's crazy fighters are standing and only one fighter has their weapons the fighter 58:40.780 --> 58:44.940 with weapons is considered dominant strikes are worth two points anywhere on the body the 58:44.940 --> 58:51.420 fighter without a weapon while standing is considered non-dominant dominant and strikes are only worth one 58:51.420 --> 58:58.700 point that sucks yeah don't lose your weapon you don't want to lose your weapon i don't think you would 58:58.700 --> 59:03.980 anyway these guys fuck dude this is hard i guarantee you they've got fucking like 59:05.180 --> 59:11.500 tree sap and shit embedded on their gauntlets and their their their freaking pommels and or their uh 59:12.780 --> 59:20.620 hilts of their swords i'm sure i am see now you got me just looking for uh all kinds of 59:23.100 --> 59:27.980 two-handed weapons are not allowed to be used to strike a downed opponent so you can't 59:27.980 --> 59:35.180 fucking knock them down and then fucking two-handed strike them oh strikes while standing or grounded 59:35.180 --> 59:41.580 these illegal actions will result in a penalty in addition to the predetermined recovery period 59:42.300 --> 59:49.100 strikes to the neck and throat targeting repeated shots to the armpit back of the knee groin top of the 59:49.100 --> 59:55.580 foot or foot or foot stomps targeting repeated shots to the kidney vertical spine strikes 59:56.140 --> 01:00:04.300 push kicks to the front of the knee i think those are a lot of uh mma the same mma rules not not push 01:00:04.300 --> 01:00:09.660 kicks the kicks but they're actually trying to get rid of those right now so yeah i could see that 01:00:10.860 --> 01:00:16.700 uh you can't hook your hand oh sorry go ahead oh i was just gonna say there's a giant um 01:00:18.380 --> 01:00:29.180 uh fucking armored fight the imcf world championships yeah it says seven 575 fighters uh representing 30 01:00:29.180 --> 01:00:33.340 countries jesus 180 group battles 01:00:35.580 --> 01:00:40.620 female 5 5 5 female 10 by 10 men 5 by 10 10 by 10 it's 16 01:00:42.300 --> 01:00:49.500 versus 16 that's crazy that's real crazy and what they use dull armor they're dull stuff so they use 01:00:49.500 --> 01:00:56.780 dull i guess blades non-sharp yeah yeah that makes sense right weapons yeah but they're hard like they're 01:00:56.780 --> 01:01:02.620 whacking the shit out of each other i don't know if you see any of the fuck a sword give me a mace oh yeah 01:01:02.620 --> 01:01:07.900 knock a motherfucker out with a mace well dude some of their fucking these axe things are long as 01:01:07.900 --> 01:01:16.300 shit right yeah you they're getting swings on those things dude yeah i asked my wife to get me a shillelagh 01:01:16.300 --> 01:01:21.740 when she went to ireland and she couldn't find couldn't find them i was like damn it she goes 01:01:22.380 --> 01:01:27.100 what are what what

01:02:03.260 coin oh i see knife and tool company yeah i think they call it they called it i think it was like a 01:02:03.260 --> 01:02:10.060 coin not a coin purse man maybe they don't have it anymore oh shovels walking sticks and canes here we 01:02:10.060 --> 01:02:15.420 go yeah that's how i found them when i broke my leg i needed to get a walking stick so i got oh they 01:02:15.420 --> 01:02:21.580 have a black black thorn staff that's a fucking chalet it's only six there you go so that's funny 01:02:21.580 --> 01:02:28.380 because i have a uh injected polymer urethane um cane that
