And we're live. Welcome to the Wandshow Ladies and Gentlemen. We've actually got a freaking

0:05.4

ton of topics to get through today. So no preamble. We accidentally broke Intel's embargo for

0:11.4

their 12th gen chips. We will talk about that. And of course, a summary of the media coverage of

0:18.4

the 12th gen. I will also be addressing some of the particularly ill-informed comments that were

0:23.9

left on our video criticizing our choices for how we decided to test the platform. I tried

0:32.2

Dungeons & Dragons for the first time today. So that was fun. We're going to talk about that. That's

0:36.7

sort of a little bit not really that on topic. But what else do we got?

0:39.9

There's too many show notes, man. You did three. No, I did two. I did two, two, two.

0:45.1

The Intel 12th gen thing, including our flub and the Dungeons & Dragons thing.

1:17.0

about Luke, but my screen capture is a complete cluster. Mine's not actually. You know, for the first

1:23.7

video, I actually numbered them for chronological order and titled each one of them so that they

1:31.6

would know what was happening. So it'd be easier for them to fit it into the thing. Yeah, mine's a

1:35.6

little less organized than that. Yeah. Yeah. This browser thing is really good.

1:52.8

The show is brought to you by Spanish and that side and Ridge Wallet. We are going to jump right

2:06.0

into the big oops that happened with our video review of Intel's 12th gen older lake CPUs.

2:16.8

Yeah. That's what I was going to be like. Oh, no, you know, like exactly. So what happened was

2:26.7

the video was supposed to go live at 6 a.m. Pacific standard time on Thursday. And typically,

2:35.5
