Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “I Want Labs Benchmarks to be PUBLICLY Available”.
With the labs, creating custom software and even hardware for testing, is there any plans to make those tools, public or open source? We’Ve actually got a video coming about this uh very soon we’re going to be showing off our uh our benchmarking tool named Mark bench? That’S pretty great mark bench, The Benchmark and it’s an automated tool for benchmarking games. We’Re also going to add compatibility for productivity tools and right now, it’s fairly rudimentary. It just is kind of just an automation tool with us with a simple GUI that logs the data logs data like frame times thermals power consumption that sort of thing, but over time we do want to make it significantly more robust, and I would like to make It available to the community for personal use, and maybe we have commercial licensing available for other outlets. I don’t know what that would look like. There’S a lot of questions to be answered, but, yes, it is my desire to make it broadly available. There’S a lot of confusion about my partition’s comment. I did not foresee this, but there is, I don’t mean like installing your games on another partition. I mean booting into like another operating system like have, if you, if you just use Windows, have another one installed, is what I’m saying the only motorcycle I’ve ever owned is an sv650s Levi. It’S a 2003 and my dream motorcycle. Is that one painted pink to be clear? I mean an additional windows, so you could have. If your windows, 11 person, you could have two windows 11s one installed on another drive or partition is another way that I should have said it.
So you could have two boot drives or you could have uh two boot partitions and you separate things you separate uh, all your personal stuff, all your important things, Etc and then games uh. We do seem to be trending in that direction and I actually do genuinely think that’s going to be a a decently good way to do it. Okay, uh! Well, the problem is um. I still don’t actually know if they time out will they show if we click show Luke if they time out yeah, because you know they have the 180 second timer or whatever uh what then they would go into the queue, so they would show you they would Show so it works in the queue yeah okay, so you can put them in the queue after they time out. That’S fine! What’S the purpose of the timeout anymore, then uh uh, you know the timer right, the 180 second timer when they start coming.
I think it’s supposed to automatically show if that happens, that doesn’t seem good because then stuff could slip through they will Conrad says they will okay, it should be in the dock. It should be in the dock about the about the messages dirt face Larry. No, I did not see uh who these garages video about towing with the F-150 Lightning.
I saw that it existed. I didn’t actually watch the video, but it’s a really good question. Uh can EVS overcome their dependence on aerodynamics or get higher efficiency batteries to compensate um. So, there’s a whole thing right about the with the energy density like of of hydrocarbons like gasoline right. It’S really really really really really really really really high, like it’s actually amazing how much energy is stored in those bonds such that we can so inefficiently extract it by literally just burning it and it it we’re still able to accomplish so much with so little. I don’t know that EV batteries will ever be able to achieve that kind of power to weight ratio, and it may always be a challenge um with that said, I think that for a lot of people, what they do with something like a pickup truck can probably Be handled by an EV pickup and for those who need to actually haul a lot, there will be larger commercial vehicles that will be designed for that like Tesla semi, which hopefully is really good, but you know who knows right: yeah, um yeah! I have my doubts.
It’S possible that we will be reliant on fossil fuels for quite a long time. I just hope that we can reduce our use of them as much as possible. Um. Okay, sorry Matthew S.
No! We haven’t really thought about working with a local high school on the video or Tech side. I don’t know what we would do with them exactly uh. Well, I mean there was that time that we talked to my kids school about like upgrading their computer lab and they were basically like yeah. They have to be Max and I was like okay well, I don’t really have any hookups for that yeah. So I guess you guys can just keep whatever you have now. So that was something um. Are they all Max right now uh that was a different school yeah? My son was at before .
