    56:03 Them realizing the MacBook square corners on the bottom is such a “now you’re breathing manually” moment. 🤣

  • @stackcycler
    Every major LLM has already been trained on Reddit posts. It was the primary reason Reddit closed their API, they wanted to prevent the AI companies from scraping their data. The difference is now they have an official agreement with OpenAI.

    "fucksmith pizza glue" just missed the window for the episode...
  • @artt-
    55:34 : Such an unexpected comment/analogy from Marques on that 150gb storage. Absolutely hilarious! 😂😂

  • @henkrpe3249
    "big tech for some reason has an obsession with recreating things in movies that are extremely dystopian" Oh David, honey, you were thiiiiiis close to getting it...
  • @Sant1ag0.
    Fun fact about New Jersey: There are a large number of inventions originating from New Jersey. Such as the light bulb, the FM radio, and the motion picture camera
  • David is mistaken, before the Surface Pro X there were 3 Windows on Arm PCs that ran on a Snapdragon 835. There was the Asus NovaGo, Hp Envy 2x, and the Lenovo Miix 630. Aside from Surface RT dreams... the Pro X was not the first time they tried and OEMs tried also (Nokia made an RT tablet) it always just sucked.

    Ellis's laugh iis the most accurate representation of J Jhonna Jameson's laugh IYKYK😂
  • @onlysublime
    That's because with earlier attempts at ARM PCs there were no options. Everything was phone processors. In fact the surface pro x had a modified Qualcomm 855 processor with added PC necessities like extra PCIe lanes. It wasn't until Qualcomm acquired Nuvia and the key leaders and chip designers behind the M processors that they had a serious chip for PCs.

    1:10:58 I work as a test technician for CT scanners. We use an RTX 2080 Ti for reconstructing x-ray slices (between 36 and 1000) into a 3D model. There is a massive processing time difference between a 2080 Ti and a 1080 Ti it’s possible that Teslas might be using a baller GPU in tandem with their reliance on solely cameras.
