0:00 [Music] welcome back to an episode of careful boys where we are going to talk about modern technological things that we think are bull oh yeah he talking that nerd talking I hate this you guys tried the Oculus yet I think that's I tried the air think it's pry Co what is it called the air Vision Max Pro Vision Pros what you think of those I think they're very dangerous M why cuz like once you go in there so at first I thought it was lame like you see people walking around with them like man look at this ████ weirdo word yeah and then I I tried it and you're like holy ████ there actually like 10t screens that you're looking at so it's not like you're looking at it's not like this the perspective is huge so it's

0:52 like watching a widecreen TV you could have ████ a fight going on here YouTube video here ████ reading a book checking your email whatever and I'm like dude once you get locked in over dude it's like 10 times more stimulating than headphones I'm like it's better than real life it's better than real life what's the point of me talking to Nick when I can just put this on he puts this on and then there goes our friendship yeah cuz what he's going to watch is going to be way better than what I have to say you know yeah and there goes human connection I don't know dude but that's me being the ████ back in my day you know cuz I remember when I like the Oculus like I'm I'm a simple I'm a simple things so that blew my mind a little bit so I can only imagine how good the tech is and the Apple stuff cuz they take that Tech and they blow it up even I think the tech is impressive I don't think people want it

1:42 as much as people say they do that's what I think is ████ I think the demand is artificial yeah because they already have the supply and they're like no we need you to want this it's like $5,000 right but even then like the Oculus itself like everybody acted like oh this is so much better than games it's like do you play it more than you play normal games no nobody stand up and I got to like move my arms and the amount that you have to sell in order for it to be truly successful is not even close like for take for instance a PlayStation Portable nobody knows anything about that but four times the people bought that than they did the Oculus but nobody knows anything about it because it's not common to you or me I don't know ████ yeah but they sold 880,000 units Oculus is like at 20 no not 80 80 million Oculus is like 20 million or something really yeah 80 million units yeah of Playstation

2:32 portable of PSPs is it like the Oculus though no it's just a regular handheld but then that's how much you need to buy something for that to be the thing and even that wasn't the thing and that's how many they sold that's what I'm saying it's they discon I don't think I think when you look at uh the media about the Oculus the demand is artificial to me I see oh yeah cuz also too the whole the whole thing was um the metaverse they were pushing the meterse so hard and this pushing pushing this was going to be tandem with it and it kind of stayed in the Met yeah it did kind of so when someone sits there and they tell me oh dude Oculus VR is the future and I'm like you didn't even play it today I played PS5 every ████ day this week that's the future ps6 is the future to me you know what I mean and ps6 is not going to be this you know what I mean um I also think that that that that that type of technology is

3:22 works best for us because this generation can use it for a little bit but we still are going to miss the yeah intera cuz we know what that's like true and we can get bored of this life for a bit we're like oh we'll be in it for a week and they're like all right I want to hang out with my friends again like cuz I know what that feels like the kids that just know this yeah are not going to understand that it's like Wall-E you know what I'm saying it also doesn't it doesn't cater to the lazy you have to cater to the lazy for like Tech to be truly successful I think true like super conen there's only so much gaming I can do until I'm like all right I'm over this ████ I'm ready to go outside and ████ something dude no but you know what I mean like I go do something he just like I need a ████ a goat or something that's what I meant by something dude there's a random hole in the middle of my yard get ████ what about some modern

4:13 technology in uh self-pleasure do you think any of that stuff is go I haven't let's invest Next Level a lot of stuff like I know there's like VR porn there's like the ████ Dark Knight there's like suck machines there's like there's AI girlfriends you see those like the one you know what I mean and then you watch Boral like that the VR the dual screen the VR the VR why is that a good time it's why I've tried it it's like me and this guy know what's up dude you like right now dud is it too good that you're like this is like cheating do you like it man cuz you know I know I still know it's my hand you know what I mean I'm not dead like the crazy thing is that you feel like you feel like you're in

5:03 this room with this girl girl hey buddy but at the same time I don't know what the ████ you're buddy but they got those kinds too at the same time do you go damn I think I got a problem yes that's what happened to me I ignore that voice he actually he actually he actually did it yo yo che check it out I got the VR I was just like you know what I'm curious yeah you know what mean like I'm not trying to go out deal with no a no other check obviously I was just like I'm with my wife I'm just like one out you know what I mean I did the VR it's cool headphones were cool and then you buy you know you have one I feel like everyone had a Pocky ████ at one point right mhm well no but but this is BU we found out that it's just you bro

5:54 just you do that you do that combo it's pretty crazy right I'm just scared of not hearing what's going around me oh so it it completely ruins ites yeah so because it's I'm just scared cuz I'm like sometime like what if my dog's barking what if someone's choking what if my wife goes the ████ you doing like oh cuz you wear headphones too yeah I wear headphones like the full effect 100% everything you know well the full effect you'd probably pop some Viagra pills too you probably locked the doors shut the I'm have a real good time by myself the whole day yeah the full effect full day all 2 minutes damn the girl saying don't no no and then she finally says yes yeah yeah yeah that's a full effect that's a full effect uh yeah when you're in it you're just kind of like in

6:44 the room and then you look and you can see like the back of the room and this and then and she's still go and I'm like oh so I can like you know I can be over here you know what I mean like oh ████ damn am I I'm in seei Valley yeah yeah I'm over here looking at her her closet what kind of ████ you got over here damn girl no but VR is crazy though cuz you're just like wow vr's pretty sick I'm in a different world the part that bugs me is everybody says that but why aren't any of you guys using it because dude I just told you I us it for a while and yeah that's what I mean that's where I'm at it's like dude I don't have a place in my okay one if I I play video games I don't want my wife to ████ know that I'm playing any video games that's the thing there's too many variables of why people love it so much and they still don't pay money to keep doing it but I think it's not for us

7:34 though I think it's for the kids that grew up with the Oculus like that's what I'm saying that's who it's for but I think they're even border faster than we are of it that's what I think go VR place I've never went to someone's house and used VR ever cuz I think the setup is too much cuz you were hanging out with the human that losing that house pretending to be somewhere yeah what a bizarre concert but yeah but you were like why would I do that would I here to hang out with you dude what the ████ the end feeling like you know when you're done you're like and you're just like you know what that was a lot of work this is disgusting what the ████ like browsers here's the thing about that ████ was I even clearing your cache but the crazy thing about VR though is how your you know it's fake but your reactions are as if it's coming at you

8:25 so like when something drops on you you're like really scared cuz you're like ████ ████ right trying to avoid that oh wait don't don't watch different videos buddy is coming at me it's going out dude come Dodgers but I know but you're right when you're on it and people and I played a flying game like fruit ninja and I thought I was flying down a cliff and the feeling was as if I was dropping oh you see yeah ████ that you know I did with the line you're like walking on the ████ roope it doesn't feel just like scar like yeah but that's the thing like two bit circus for instance has every one of those every one of those they are hurting for attendance why we all just said it's the sickest ████ have you guys been and I can't jack off in those

9:15 places can't watch porn at two bit circus that's where I think that's where I think it really is Media influence making us always every time we think of it we like d it's the sickest thing it's so cool you have big conversations about it nobody walks away and goes to do it I think it's too intense it's not that I think it's too intense and then I think like it's a lot of work like cuz you get dizzy like the racing one that ████ me up dude it's like going to an amusement park it's like dedicated time for this it's one of the most confusing things to me because it's so verifiably cool but we're not doing it um I think it's the same thing with everything like you're so hyped to do it and then you're just like eh what the ████ next but you're right I think what Nick said too it's just not for it it's a lot of work it's a lot of work yeah it's you're right I think it's to intense like when I did it I was like that was cool that was a cool experience but this is too much then I

10:06 it's like a lot I don't want to be in this world like I'm okay with driving the speed limit like I don't have to go 200 mph every day like that s███'s too crazy you know what is really cool are those drone shows where they have like a giant ████ guy in the sky made of 500 drones lights oh yeah that s███'s crazy crazy what's that spot in Vegas right now the oh the sphere that's wild do you think the sphere is ████ no the sphere kind of cool actually the sphere is going to be ████ wild it looks like a giant TV for the freeway like from almost every angle of Vegas you could just see random ████ ████ minions or whatever or ████ Spider-Man crawl it just changes whatever colors and images have you been inside yet no didn't Anthony go Anthony saw some inside right I don't know but I would love to go inside anyone who's been inside said that's ████ crazy

10:56 crazy inside they're going to do the UFC over there that's going to be n that's going to how is that going to they said they have no idea how they're going to do it but they're going to try to make happen it's going to be like a the show itself was whatever really yeah I heard a lot of mix reviews oh wow I don't know dude that's scary ████ what other technological things do you think are like dude K's ████ uh his his his voice activated um are you talking about his air purifier yeah dude cuz it has Bluetooth nah he said it was like it had Alexa in it or something I don't get Alexa dude you mean yeah so in that world right how scary is it that now um famous people are going to sign off their rights to like what's his name Bruce Willis yeah his voice right his voice his no his face everything they're like literally going to he's going to be in movies and

11:48 they're going to use his rights he you know he was a die hard though so well he kep you know what I'm saying you got a point there he can't he has a problem right now though right that's what I'm saying so they're like they know that but they can just reconstruct his his face and put him in movies all you got to do is it's going to be a guy wearing like a green mask in the movie like acting with with other actors but it's going to be his face would you want to would you want to do that with your image I wouldn't know I don't know how that works how would that work so does my family get a percentage of every movie that's made is that how that works or is it just a giant Lum Lum suum it's just like when if that's the case what's your number oh it would be it would have to be so high it have to be so ridiculously high that me and generations of my family would be taken care of because once you sign away your likeness that's it it'll just go into

12:38 porn eventually oh God going to live forever well at least for entertainment that's it I think most technolog is overrated to me really most of it yeah I like like like if you go prehistoric like let's say we're just chilling and we just have ████ bonfire I think that's pretty tight uh-oh here a couple here a couple months away from going off the grid we're not going to see Bart again all that millery ████ in the back is making it more ████ suspicious the GD you know those um you remember when they when when smart locks were really hot smart locks they like basically like fingerprint cuz the house I used to live in every one of the doors had a Smart Lock that was like button or Wi-Fi or whatever and then when the battery run out that door would just be permanently locked until you can get a person to ████ go to the other side and take it apart it was just like so

13:29 insane because they obviously the batteries they were all installed at the same time and then one day they just all all the doors were just impossible to open I remember thinking like it was supposed to be convenient cuz you can use your app right but then sometimes the wireless is down or like it's all yeah or like yeah and then I remember thinking this takes like 40 seconds to open up the app turn it on I'm like what if I'm being chased yeah you got to do it as you're in the elevator I rather just have a key that goes he he yeah keys what if you miss kind of just like analog ████ analog ████ for sure okay so what's the technology that made that shocked you that went made you go like holy ████ we're in the ████ future the internet Apple watch internet that's what it took for you to be like well I'm older than this he's the

14:19 internet Apple watch really what did it do for you that you you were so impress when you ride motorcycle you're like wow GPS my thing was uh my thing let me music W yeah honestly yeah GPS is pretty crazy GPS is pretty ████ dope yeah my thing was ████ Apple pay holy ████ yeah no money nothing just this is this that's crazy to me it was like that's ████ wild like to think that I could just pay something and it's all right here I don't have to carry that ████ with me no more we were like I don't think I have money on on me anymore like I just it's all through my ████ I get excited to go to the gas station and pay with Apple pay cuz it's so quick and goes the funny thing is Asia had that ████ 10 15 years ago did they really and then I was thinking why doesn't America have this yet yeah really yeah and then

15:11 they finally came out and I was like it's about ████ time dude you to the source what's going on in Asia that that's going on right now that you're like oh I can't wait till it hit they had it before there was smartphones so before like when we were still using Nokia kind of brick phones they found a technology to like create a charge card in their phones yeah so then when you take the train whatever get a like go to vending machine they just had this beep beep beep they just use their phones and then you charge up the phone with with whatever money you wanted do yeah and they had that like in the '90s already holy ████ it's easier when the private sector doesn't clash with the government yeah I heard that you guys they they you guys I heard that the uh I know I'm sorry we're all from Japan I I heard that they had um a FaceTime before FaceTime was a thing oh maybe I
