What is up y'all? Welcome to the WAN show. We've got a fantastic show lined up for you

0:06.3

this week. Our main topics of discussion are going to be what is USB for 2.0?

0:16.1

I don't even want to know. That is not how versioning version numbering works. Also, LTT

0:24.8

has actually completed. It is shot now. We have completed our first major like big sponsorship

0:34.5

of like an STR YouTuber. Yeah. We do sponsorships for other YouTubers now. So I'm going to be talking

0:43.2

about that. What else we got today? That's wacky. What isn't wacky is Ryzen 7000 and Intel trying to

0:50.7

say that, you know, ARC is better than Nvidia ray tracing. They have never claimed anything in

0:57.8

the past. I think the first thing we're going to have to dig into this week is

1:27.8

Oh, the slightly different format for the show. I'm really hungry and Bells hungry and Luke was

but we're going to get to them later. We're going to push them a little bit further out,

2:00.6

which means we are going to jump right into USB for 2.0. That's right. Ladies and gentlemen,

2:07.6

the USB, what is it? USB forum, USB promoter group. They're on a mission. They're on a mission to

2:18.8

make me angry because there is no other possible reason that I can imagine for this naming scheme

2:25.9

to exist. This is not how versioning works. I like to think I like to think that someone there

2:33.3

knows that and is driving for change, but this one time was like actually we need this sequence

2:40.5

of numbers and they made it happen. What? They wanted 420. What do you even? Oh my god.

2:47.6
