Plugman wizardly Wade goes three-gun-monitor-mojo and rocks the schoolhouse with Ted.

Hello and welcome to Distractible, the podcast where I'm the host and I judge the worthiness of both you, the audience, and the competitors that are here today. Today is an audience versus competitors episode. No stop. That would be fun though, wouldn't it?

0

85.128 - 92.496 Bob

We're not worthy. I think we'd kick their ass. I'd be excited for that. All you'd still got nothing on me.

92.556 - 103.489 Mark

So the way it works is I'm going to judge them and I'm going to assign points based on what they have to offer. And then the winner will host the next episode. If there is a winner, wink.

103.749 - 109.796 Bob

I thought you were going to say, if there is a next episode. I was like, oh my god, the stakes have never been higher.

110.056 - 116.704 Mark

That's true, that's true, alright. Yeah, I could set a point threshold and if we don't get above that, the podcast is cancelled.

116.744 - 120.188 Bob

That's the end. I mean, that seems like the only reasonable thing to do, really.

Chapter 2: How do tech issues lead to learning experiences?

150.772 - 171.882 Wade

I don't want to stop and allow that to happen. I'm sure you'll earn it. I have been plagued by a mystery for a while. The weighty boy here bought some monitors back in like 2015, 2016. And I used those puppies all the way up until this year. And I decided, you know what? It's time. The universe said 60 Hertz isn't the cap. You can go beyond that now.

0

171.962 - 174.103 Bob

You're using 60 Hertz monitors up till now?

0

175.081 - 202.474 Wade

so what i did was i bought some new monitors these bad boys 4k dual mode don't even know what that means up to 244 240 hertz one of the two don't even know the numbers are so much bigger than i'm used to I slapped these bad boys on. I had DisplayPorts on the old ones. And I was like, you know what? DisplayPort seems to still be the thing after a decade. Let's keep DisplayPorts on these bad boys.

202.514 - 223.717 Wade

Fired up the old PC. By old I mean less than a year old. Because we're all new here at Wade Studios. And all three monitors flickered on. And I was like, oh baby, we're in business. I launched up my first game, ready to check out my new sweet puppies. And one of my modders was like, oh, oh dear, oh my, oh no, heaven's the best. Untertitelung des ZDF, 2020

Wenn die Lösung ist, dass du andere Monitore hast, dann verdienst du mehr Punkte, als er dir gegeben hat.

250.027 - 270.674 Wade

Das sind die gleichen drei Monitore. Das sind sogar die gleichen drei Korden und Kabel. Keine neuen Teile wurden eingegeben. Die Lösung war nicht, Software zu downloaden. Es war nicht, eine Beta-Version von Nvidias GeForce Experience zu bekommen. Die Lösung war nicht, all meine Grafik-Settings zu updaten. Es war nicht, in das NVIDIA-Kontroll-Panel oder das Display-Kontroll-Panel zu gehen.

270.954 - 285.501 Wade

Es war nicht um die Hertz zu verändern, obwohl das vielleicht hilfreich war, um es zu sagen. Die Lösung war nicht nur, sie abzuschalten und sie wieder reinzuschalten. Aber ja, es war es tatsächlich. Die Lösung war nicht nur, sie abzuschalten. Es war, sie von beiden Enden des Computers abzuschalten. Der Monitor, die Wand, das Ding.

285.521 - 292.225 Wade

Jeder Kabel musste abgeschaltet werden und sitzen und dann wieder reinzuschalten. Und dann hat es funktioniert.

292.245 - 296.427 Bob

Du hast kein neues Kabel erst versucht. Du hast das nicht für einen Monat und eineinhalb versucht.

Chapter 3: What tech updates does Wade share?

1609.785 - 1634.536 Mark

in the work day i'm sure at that time when that came out they rolled their eyes but right now whatever they have in current day training videos it was not superior to that that's the truest uh form of edutainment and for companies like that is a big thing it's just like how do you get your new employees to retain the information and it has to be entertaining in some way to capture their attention because no one likes watching training videos but you know it is they're usually pretty terrible

1634.796 - 1646.601 Mark

Meine Trainingsvideos bei der Ingenieurarbeit, die ich hatte, waren einfach... Ich erinnere mich an Drehschule und als ich mit United Dairy Farmers gearbeitet habe, erinnere ich mich an die Eiscreme-Videos.

0

1646.621 - 1650.862 Wade

Die waren alt, nicht lustig und einfach so furchtbar.

0

1650.882 - 1661.586 Bob

Die Videos waren hart, aber der Kerl, der meine Drehschule lehrte, war ein Legend. Ich erinnere mich noch an das Zimmer. Er hatte ein paar verpackte Tiere und jeder war für einen anderen Grund.

0

1663.407 - 1675.791 Bob

Und jedes Mal, wenn wir... Und das, was ich am meisten erinnere, war, wenn du einen Vier-Weg-Stopp hast, was du tun musst, ist, dass du an der Linie stoppst, und dann steckst du deinen Kopf raus und wirst ein Turtel. Und er hatte einen kleinen, verpackten Tier-Turtel. Und er war einfach so, Turtel, schau nach links. Turtel, schau nach rechts. Turtel.

1675.891 - 1698.103 Bob

Und er hatte, wie literally, er hatte einen ganzen Kasten Charaktere. Jeder war eine andere Aktion in einer anderen... Es war sehr effektiv. Auch alle dachten, dass er völlig verrückt war, weil er wie ein wirklich älterer Kerl war. Er war wie ein verheirateter Kerl, der das gemacht hat, weil er es klar genossen hat. Und alle Kinder, die in ihrem Lernen waren, waren immer einfach so.

1700.489 - 1720.577 Bob

I thought it was fucking great. Absolute legend. I don't remember his name. I remember it was this little, not very well ventilated, musty room in a little thing in downtown Dublin. And that dude would just have his stuffed animals up at the front and we would go through scenarios and he would go through and he would turtle and there was a bunny and there was a cow for some reason.

1720.617 - 1742.809 Bob

I don't remember what the cow did. Something about the udders. I don't recall. My classic udders driving dilemma. You keep your hands at ten and two and then milk it. Milk it. Milk the wheel. Does he think he's teaching six-year-olds to drive? I don't know. It worked, man. It worked on me. Every time I stop at a four-way stop, I still go turtle.

1744.704 - 1748.486 Wade

Oh, we're gonna get claimed immediately. Mute it and we'll just sing it.
