Waching daily Jul 26 2017

Hey guys, we're getting ready to head out to a supercar meet but the car we are riding

in is covered in dirt, brake dust and debris.

But we don't actually have time to wash it so instead we're going to use Synthetic Quick

Detail Spray.

This is going to take care of anything that is on the surface without scratching because

this car has never been washed before.

It's a brand new 2017 Nissan GTR, but it's not just any GTR this is a Nismo Edition.

If you don't know what that means it is Nissans Performance Motor Sports Division.

This has the high end package, ground effects and a really cool look.

Now I'm going to show you guys how to safely remove surface debris without harming the

finish.

The important thing is this is a brand new car that has never been touched so we want

to be super careful with what we're doing and that is why we are using a Happy Ending

Towel.

This is a great combination to make sure you don't install any imperfections to the paint.

It has a super plush pile which traps contamination as well as a laser cut edge to reduce the

chances of scratching.

We'll start by spraying down the surface and you can use this on glass, paint and your

wheels.

Spray it directly on the surface and we'll give it a chance to trap anything that is

on the paintwork this way we don't harm the surface of the vehicle.

After giving Synthetic Quick Detail Spray a chance to trap and encapsulate anything

that was on the surface we'll start gently wiping off in one direction and I'm rolling

the towel as I go.

This creates a new edge as I wipe the surface.

Obviously this car isn't super dirty and it is pretty clean for the most part but there

is still a light layer of dust and debris or anything that could have landed on the

surface like this bird dropping which comes off nice and easily using Synthetic Quick

Detailer.

As I mentioned we are going to a car meet and we definately don't want to roll up with

water spots or dirt on the car so by cleaning it off it will magnify the paint work and

also by using Synthetic Quick Detailer it is adding an anti-static barrier which is

going to reduce the chances of anything clinging to the vehicle to keep this car looking its

best for longer.

I'm going to finish off the body, we also need to get the windows and the wheels are

covered in brake dust.

They are supposed to be glossy black but all that brake dust collected on there making

it look really bad so we're going to clean it off using Synthetic.

Alright guys now that the body is looking amazing and the glass has pure clarity again,

I mentioned that these wheels are covered in brake dust so we are going to move on to

that.

You can see the sensitive glossy black finish scratches easily and it shows imperfections

so we are going to spray it down to trap and soften brake dust which is very abrasive and

we will safely remove it.

I'll give that a chance to encapsulate any particles and I have also changed to a Black

Happy Ending.

This is so we can't see all the filth that was on the wheel but everybody loves a happy

ending and that is why we are using this perfectly plush towel to clean this brand new car.

You guys have been asking us for new stuff in our videos, new content, well this is a

brand new GTR so there you go.

So, if you guys want to learn more about these products go to our website chemicalguys.com.

If you like this car or this video be sure to give it a thumbs up and we'll see you out there!

Mouse Guide Overwatch Edition - Wrist vs Arm Aim, Finding Sensitivity, Mouse Grip, Optical vs Laser - Duration: 12:05.

Hey there!

In this video, we are going to cover all mouse related settings and setup like mouse grip,

sensitivity, DPI and general posture.

All this to help you improve in any FPS game, especially Overwatch.

Let's get to it!

Hello guys, welcome to the dojo!

This episode is describing different settings, and explaining which are the pros and cons

for different options that you can choose from when dealing with mouse related configuration.

Please be aware that this video needs you to take action, as only you can tell what

is a good setting for your style and setup.

Should you have any questions during the video, post a comment or join our Discord server

by clicking on the card right now!

After this short disclaimer, let's discuss the importance of good mouse settings.

Your in-game aim and character movements are mostly defined by the mouse movements (and

a bit by keyboard control).

Figuring out the best way to hold a mouse helps with fine control.

Finding a good sensitivity allows you to be precise and versatile.

Different FPS games call for different settings, for example Counter Strike can be called traditional

in regards to mouse sensitivity, while Overwatch has a lot of vertical movement, so the common

sensitivity is higher than in other games.

You need to be able to land shots mid- and long range, and be able to track a target's

movement who is very close to you, or jumping around you quickly.

You want to be able to do all of this with the same mouse settings, as that's how you

can improve your muscle memory that helps with making sure your aim is consistent.

There are two terms for aiming used commonly, wrist aiming and arm aiming.

Wrist aimers tend to have higher sensitivity, and only move their wrist while aiming.

They use a single point of support or two: one at the wrist and one at the elbow.

Their hand rotate around the pivot point on the wrist in a waving motion.

Using solely this technique is dangerous to your health, as it usually leads to wrist

injury in the long run, this joint is not intended for extended use.

Also it is harder to be precise like this due to the high mouse sensitivity that wrist

aimers tend use.

It can be learned of course and you can get adjusted to it in time.

You can see an example of how wrist aiming looks like in the following video.

Small movements of the hand in a waving motion.

Usually not lifting the mouse at all, or just very slightly.

Arm aimers tend to utilize more of their arms for rough mouse movements and use the wrist

to precisely adjust their aim.

The rules are this: use the arm for anything that includes big movements on the screen,

for example: navigating around the map, turning around, tracking an enemy close to you, etc.

Use your wrist to adjust precisely to the exact point where you want to shoot, for example:

tracking an enemy far from you, aiming at the head, flicking to the head.

You can see the example video of someone with low sensitivity using this technique.

Watch how the wrist is fixed while the player is using the mouse for navigation and then

how he aims precisely.

It's important to mention that there is no such thing as purely arm aiming, because

that would leave you without any precision.

You need the fine movements of your wrist to be able to land precise shots on far away

targets.

So which one is better?

If you already have FPS experience, just stay with what you do.

Relearning takes a lot of time.

That being said aiming with arms and wrist is considered to be the best practice.

It is more versatile, better for your health in the long run and can be more precise in

less time.

If you consider changing to this type of aiming, make sure that you have a big mouse pad, as

you don't want to run out of space while adjusting your mouse.

It will be hard at first, but you can get used to it, and it can really benefit your

game.

Now let's see different styles of gripping the mouse.

There are different ways to hold your mouse, and this is as much a personal preference

as wrist vs arm aiming.

We distinguish three different ways to hold your mouse, defined by the contact points.

The most common is palm grip, where your whole hand covers your mouse.

This is the most commonly used grip among gamers.

Feels natural and allows you to play for extended periods of time, because there is no hand

fatigue due to this grip.

It makes it easy to do quick mouse movements, but there is no fine control from the fingers

as in the other grip styles.

We suggest this style of grip to wrist aimers, or players with big hands, but is suitable

for all.

Every kind of mice can be held in a palm grip.

The next style is the claw grip, roughly one third of gamers use this style.

Your hand still touches to mouse, but your fingers are arched and not flat on the buttons.

This style allows for more precise control, but it can feel unnatural and makes your hand

tired more quickly.

Quick movements are a little bit harder to execute, however you will have much better

precision for the shots that count.

We suggest this style to anyone looking for more precise control of the mouse, who is

willing to sacrifice a bit of comfort for better accuracy.

Light mice is the best for this kind of grip, as heavy mice are hard to move around when

held like this.

The last style is called fingertip grip, where only your fingers are in contact with the

mouse.

This allows for precise control, and really quick movements.

It feels really unnatural however and is hard to learn.

If you are looking for an agile grip, this is for you.

We suggest this kind grip to anybody who wants really agile controls and doesn't mind relearning

mouse movements, or throwing away comfort.

Light and small mice is the best for this style.

That's all about the different styles of how you can hold the mouse.

If you have any experience with these style that you would like to share with other viewers,

or extra tips we did not add, leave a comment below!

All right, so far so good, now we get to the sensitivity and DPI settings.

Before we begin, please make sure that your Windows mouse sensitivity is set to 6.

If it is not, it will scale all values told here, so calculate accordingly.

You can change this setting under Control Panel > Mouse Settings.

When dealing with any mouse input, you need to make sure that you are as close to raw

input as possible.

We don't want any software to tinker with the values of mouse movement from the hardware,

so avoid mouse acceleration and pointer precision enhancements as well!

This is important to pay attention to!

One of the most controversial things about mouse settings is DPI.

Dot Per Inch or DPI is a property of your mouse.

It basically describes how sensitive your mouse is.

Higher DPI means that your cursor moves more on the screen with the same hand movement.

Gaming mice tend to have really high potential DPI values, however these are just big numbers

that are written on the product details to make you buy that particular mouse.

High maximum DPI therefore is only a sales tool.

You never really need anything higher than 2000.

Some sensors interpolate the movement above 2000 DPI, meaning that it is not an exact

representation of your physical movements.

We want to avoid that, as previously stated.

If your mouse doesn't support DPI switching, then skip the next part and adjust the Windows

sensitivity instead.

It is usually a good practice to find your DPI first.

Find a value that is comfortable to use for everyday tasks on your machine.

This really varies based on screen size, resolution, personal preference.

Start with 800 and work your way up.

Try dragging the mouse around the monitor and clicking on icons.

If it feels right, and you can hit all the intended clicks, that should be your preferred

DPI value.

This you won't have to switch between DPI settings when gaming or using your operating

system.

By setting the DPI first, you get a comfortable all around system setting for the mouse that

you can adjust in any game later.

If you play multiple games for example, you can have multiple sensitivity profiles based

on what fits you in that particular game.

Let's get to the topic of sensitivity and discuss the keywords and values that you can

find when looking for different settings.

First of all, let's discuss cm per 360.

This is a value that describes how much real physical distance you need to make with your

mouse to do a full turn in the game.

Lower values mean that less movement is needed.

This is a good value to describe sensitivity values and are often used for comparison.

There are calculators linked in the description which you can use to calculate this value

for different games.

Sensitivity in itself is not really telling you anything about a player's settings,

but cm/360 is describing everything that you need to know when talking about the topic.

The underlying DPI and sensitivity can change based on personal preference and you can just

say that you have 34.6 cm/360 and everybody will understand how quickly your mouse moves.

Your in-game sensitivity is a simple value describing your mouse movements.

This is the last value you need to find.

Different games call for different sensitivity values.

Quake style arena shooters use higher sensitivity, because you need to be able to turn around

quickly.

Counter Strike style games are favoring more precise controls over quick reactions usually,

meaning that you can play with really low sensitivity for precision.

Overwatch is a mix of both worlds, because you need quick half turns with some characters

and precision with the others.

We want to keep the same sensitivity for all characters, so it's recommended to find

something that is good for all styles.

How to find your in-game sensitivity There are a lot of ways to find the perfect

sensitivity for a game.

We will show our preferred method for Overwatch.

There are videos about other games out there, look them up.

We will use 800 DPI for this routine.

Load up a tutorial range or a custom map where you can practice without distraction.

Finding your sensitivity takes a little bit of time, and you need to practice in a live

environment later to make sure it fits you.

First of all, we need to find a base value.

We are using a guide that was created for counter strike, see the link in the description.

Find the sensitivity that completes a 360 moving of your mouse across your mousepad

from one end to the other.

That simply means that you need to find the sensitivity number that allows you to drag

the mouse from left to right and turns your character around perfectly once in the game.

Let's say that number is 2.5, take your identified value and multiply it by .5 and

write the number down, then take your 360 sensitivity again and multiply it by 1.5 and

write that down.

You will have 3 numbers like so:

Try the high and the low sensitivity for one quick play match each.

Use the same character for all the tests, just change the sensitivity.

Try to concentrate on aiming and landing your shots.

After the maps finish keep the sensitivity that you liked.

If that leaves you liking the higher sensitivity multiply it by 1.2, if the lower one, multiply

by 0.8.

Take your new sensitivity and add it to your 360 sensitivity and then divide by 2, see

the screen for the full calculations.

Now use these numbers as the new low and high and test them.

Repeat the same process until you feel you have the perfect sensitivity.

It will take time, but after that you can stick to a good setting that is comfortable

and fitting to use in every situation.

Alright, the last topic we cover in this video are mouse sensors.

These are the core of your mouse, the thing that makes it possible for the mouse to intercept

movement and transfer it to the computer.

You need this to be good if you are looking for a great mouse.

Let's see what you need to consider.

Optical vs laser First of all: optical or laser.

We are going bold here and state this as a fact.

Take optical over laser any time.

Optical is an older tech, but superior in both tracking speed and accuracy, and have

a much lower malfunction rate.

Just switch your laser mouse already if you want better experience.

Period.

Polling rate Polling rate is the rate at which the mouse

updates and sends information about its movements/positions.

The higher you can set this number the more precise movements will be registered.

This is usually around 1000 HZ for newer gaming mice.

Make sure that you set it high.

We don't really want to go in depth about mouse pads in this guide.

The most important thing is that you should get a big one.

As big as you can comfortably fit on your desk.

There are different variations in surface, choose something that fits your style.

Hard surfaces are good for speed as it allows the mouse to slide more freely.

If you are interested in more in-depth guides about how to choose a pad, see the link in

the description.

Project White Shark — Shark Fin-gerprints - Duration: 2:16.

Sal: There! There! There! Fin! Fin! Fin!

Sal: Nice! ID? You got the ID? Scot: Yeah

Sal: Each shark fin is like a fingerprint.

It has a unique series of notches and ridges along the trailing edge

that allows us to distinguish one shark from the other.

Scot: They're a visual predator. When they actually see a seal

it's a visual attack, so we've set up this situation where you have a decoy

that looks like a seal, and we float that on the water surface. When the shark sees it

and comes up to it, we pull it away from him so it doesn't bite it if we can avoid that

And then we can try and get still photographs as it's coming in. And then

underwater video of it next to the boat.

Sal: There it is--it's him again! Oh come on--no,no, no! You missed it! Scot: (Laughs)

There we go--alright. I got the fin now!

Sal: Some of the fins are more unique than others. Some have big sections missing,

or have distinctive notches. Middle Notch, who we saw the other day is one that you can immediately

identify. Sickle-Fin we saw yesterday

eating an elephant seal. And they earn their name usually by some unique

pattern on their fin. Middle Notch, Flat Top, Leno.

We've been able to show that the fins remain unchanged over decades. So if you

get a good ID of a shark, you'll be able to re-identify that shark 5, 10, 15,

20 years later. So that's the first thing that we do when a shark comes to the

boat, is really try and get a picture of the fin.

Scot: It might sound easy to do, but it's not.

The shark is unpredictable to a certain extent. There's always something that could go wrong.

Sal: When they [decoy camera] get eaten and swallowed!

Scot: Oh! Woo! You see that?

Sal: Yeah, ha, I saw the end of it!

The Untold Truth Of America's First Ladies - Duration: 6:22.

Landing the title of America's First Lady sounds like a glamorous gig, but the role

of FLOTUS isn't all that it's cracked up to be.

Louisa Adams once said,

"There is something in this great unsocial house which depresses my spirits beyond expression

and makes it impossible for me to feel at home, or to fancy that I have a home anywhere."

And she wasn't the only person to feel cooped up in the White House.

Here's a look at some of the most remarkable First Lady tragedies and triumphs throughout

the years.

Dolley Madison's piece of history

Dolley Payne Todd Madison, the wife of fourth President James Madison, was an enormously

influential First Lady, with a vivacious, fun personality.

She first had experience in the role of First Lady before her husband was elected president,

as Dolley was Secretary of State to the widowed president Thomas Jefferson.

When she became the official First Lady in 1809, she held the first inaugural ball.

And while in the White House, she created buzz by serving ice cream, a total showstopper

at the time, since there were no freezers yet in existence.

But Dolley's most memorable moment was during the War of 1812.

When the British invaded Washington, D.C. in 1814, she filled a wagon with White House

treasures — including the famous Gilbert Stuart portrait of George Washington — before

fleeing, leaving her personal items behind.

The British burned down the White House, but her courage is still fondly remembered.

Mary Todd Lincoln, shopaholic

Abraham Lincoln's wife became one of the most controversial First Ladies in history, and

was very unpopular for a variety of reasons.

Word quickly leaked about her "hellcat" temper and her crazy shopping sprees.

She was said to have rang up debt on ridiculous purchases, including 400 gloves in four months.

The death of their son Willie in 1862 due to typhoid fever sent her into a tailspin.

She was so grief-stricken that many people, including Lincoln himself, worried about her

mental health.

One year later, Mary would suffer the ultimate tragedy when Lincoln was assassinated in front

of her.

Her mental health would continue to deteriorate, and in 1875, her son Robert had her committed

to an asylum.

Eleanor Roosevelt's marriage arrangement

Anna Eleanor Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt were distant cousins who married in 1905 and

had six children.

She attempted to divorce Roosevelt after finding him in an affair with his social secretary,

Lucy Mercer, but his wealthy mother threatened to cut him off financially.

So Eleanor agreed to stay married barring that he never invite another woman in their

bed.

For the next 27 years, the two had a political partnership only.

Due to him becoming paralyzed from polio, she served as his "eyes, ears, and legs" throughout

the Great Depression and World War II.

Eleanor also had a very close friendship with reporter Lorena Hickok in the 1930s, which

appeared to contain romantic elements.

When Franklin died in Warm Springs, GA in 1945, Eleanor learned that Mercer was with

him.

Not only did Eleanor feel another betrayal, but she was devastated to learn that their

daughter Anna had arranged some of his Lucy liaisons.

Ouch.

Jackie Kennedy's other horrible loss

Jacqueline Lee Bouvier met John F. Kennedy at a dinner party, and they married in 1953.

They wanted a family, but Jackie had difficult pregnancies with Caroline and John Jr., as

well as a miscarriage, and a stillborn child.

She had also had a troubled marriage, due in part to Kennedy's womanizing.

Happy Birthday Mr. President. Happy Birthday to you.

In 1963, Jackie was the first First Lady since Frances Folsom Cleveland to have a baby while

her husband was in office.

Unfortunately, Patrick Bouvier Kennedy had respiratory distress syndrome and lived just

two days.

JFK had grown up in a household where he was told that "Kennedys don't cry," but he wept

after little Patrick died.

Betty Ford's cancer

Elizabeth Anne Bloomer Ford was arguably the first truly modern First Lady.

She was a divorcee who studied and taught modern dance when she met future president

Gerald Ford in 1947.

They married and had four children as he pursued his political career.

In 1973, Richard Nixon named Ford as vice president.

Then, after both Nixon and his vice president resigned, Ford became the only president not

elected to office.

Betty Ford was outspoken on abortion, women's rights, and divorce.

She even slept in the same White House bed as her husband, which was shocking at the

time.

Shortly after becoming First Lady, she found out she had breast cancer and had a mastectomy.

Instead of keeping it quiet, as many women did back then, she went public with her struggle,

leading many women to be proactive with their health.

Michelle Obama's garden

Michelle LaVaughn Robinson was Barack Obama's mentor at the law firm she worked at when

they met in 1989.

They married in 1992, had two children, and moved into the White House

in 2009.

Michelle's "Let's Move!" anti-childhood obesity program encouraged kids to eat better and

exercise.

But even before it launched, she set an example for the nation by creating a vegetable garden

on the White House grounds in early 2009.

This wasn't the first garden in presidential history, but this was a much more ambitious

endeavor.

Michelle wrote in her 2013 book American Grown,

"It is my hope that our garden's story — and the stories of gardens across America — will

inspire families, schools and communities to try their own hand at gardening."

What will Melania do?

Each First Lady puts her own stamp on the White House, and on the position of First

Lady.

And many of the First Ladies have been incredibly popular — sometimes even more than their

husbands.

It is unclear where Melania Trump will fall in that spectrum.

According to the New Yorker,

"She is a model with the past of a nun."

She's the second foreign-born First Lady, as well as the first First Lady to be a naturalized

US citizen.

In 2017, she made her mark by revealing that she would not move into the White House until

the end of her and Trump's son Barron's school year.

And in her first solo speech during the campaign, she spoke about how she wants to be an advocate

for women and children.

It remains to be seen what else she will do to make a statement as First Lady.

But as we've learned, only FLOTUS knows what truly goes on just past the White House lawn.

How Badly Do We Need Other Creatures To Survive? - Duration: 6:40.

Hey there, and welcome to Play Noggin.

I'm Julian, your brain's Player Two.

Like most people, my blood is red, my mini wheats are frosted, and I'm a huge sucker

for adorable videos of animal buddies on the internet.

There's something incredible about seeing two different creatures working together in

the wild for each other's mutual good.

Without words, they've found a way to survive by helping one another.

There's a metaphor in there, something about world peace, maybe?

But I digress.

The point is, seeing creatures that are so different from each other work together is

heart warming.

There aren't a ton of games that explore symbiotic relationships to any extent, which

is one of the reasons Pikmin stands out.

In Pikmin, you're Captain Olimar, a tiny alien who crash lands on a strange planet

and only has 30 days to find all the pieces of his broken spaceship before he dies horribly

of air deprivation.

Just some real light-hearted Nintendo fun here.

To accomplish this, you have to rely on strange creatures known as Pikmin.

If that's all it was, then I'd be hard pressed to call it a symbiotic relationship.

More like slave labor, right?

But as it turns out, the Pikmin are nearly extinct, because they're apparently not

too smart and can't survive in their own environment without something else to lead

them, like a bunch of sheeple transfixed by the latest Celebrity iteration of an already-tired

reality show format.

Or something.

Anyway, what the Pikmin need is you.

Hurling hapless Pikmin into harm's way does seem a bit antithetical to the theme of mutual

good, but I assume their lives would be even worse if Olimar weren't around, ordering

them into battle with a bunch of grub-dog Bulborbs.

Still, it made me curious about actual symbiotic relationships -- some real-life examples,

how they work, and how they evolved in the first place.

I have a feeling tiny space men aren't involved, but who knows!

Did you know that you're in a symbiotic relationship?

Better update your Facebook status.

In fact, you're in several, with both plants and animals.

You player.

For example, agricultural varieties of corn can't grow on their own, because over time,

they've lost the ability to expose their fruiting structure.

While that sounds gross, it just means that the sheath doesn't open on its own, and

its seeds don't separate easily.

They're symbiotically reliant on you, and we really enjoy eating them, so… relationship!

Domesticated dogs and cats, too, rely on humans for survival.

And in turn, they give us animal videos to put on the internet.

And lifelong companionship, I guess, but mostly the videos.

The number and variety of symbiotic relationships between other creatures is pretty astounding.

You've got oxpecker birds riding zebras to pick ticks off their skin and warn them

of approaching danger; you've got goby fish and snapping crabs working together to build

a den, the crab doing the lifting while the fish guards its blind buddy; you've got

three-toed sloths climbing down out of the safety of the tree canopy to poop on the ground,

so their buddies the moths that live in their fur can lay their eggs in said poop.

Yeah, animals are weird, but isn't that cool?

There is actually more than one type of symbiosis.

The kind we're generally thinking of when we talk about symbiotic relationships is mutualism

-- both species receive benefits from the relationship.

Then there's commensalism, in which one organism benefits from the relationship while

the other isn't affected much one way or the other.

And there's parasitism, which, as you might imagine, involves one organism benefitting

in a big way while the other is hurt.

There's also facultative symbiosis, in which both parties benefit, but it's more of a

nice-to-have -- they'd both be fine without each other, too.

Captain Olimar might seem to be getting more out of the relationship with the Pikmin -- after

all, he gets to not die of asphyxiation on an alien planet -- but their relationship

seems closer to obligate symbiosis, a type that means the organisms are essentially relying

on each other to not die.

Without Olimar, the Pikmin would probably just march off a cliff, Lemmings-style.

The game Lemmings, not the actual animals.

The idea that they run off cliffs en masse is an urban legend from a 1950s Disney nature

documentary.

There's a fun bonus fact for ya.

So, how do symbiotic relationships start?

It's a compelling and complicated question, and it's one that evolution deniers frequently

bring up as an argument against evolution.

As complex as multi-cell organisms are, how could they have simply evolved to cooperate

with each other naturally?

Well, the answer to that is, because that's how natural selection works.

See, some animals are born with traits that make them better suited to an environment.

In areas with significant population pressure, which is a term for circumstances that make

survival more difficult, you're even more likely to see organisms with better traits

surviving.

If an organism is able to take advantage of another organism in order to do that, they've

got an even better chance.

It's believed that most symbiotic relationships began as facultative, but over time, as natural

selection continually gave the thumbs-up to those organisms' way of life, the cooperation

became much more mandatory.

In fact, many scientists believe in a theory called symbiogenesis, which suggests symbiosis

is the key to complex life existing on this planet.

Without cooperation, extinction could be the only outcome.

This might sound a little out there, and maybe it is, in some respects, but some people even

hold to the idea that the Earth, itself, is a living organism existing in symbiosis with

all the creatures on its surface.

It's called the Gaia theory, and if it sounds a little New Age-y, well, I get that.

But it does check off some important boxes.

It provides an explanation for the fact that the temperature, water and food levels, atmosphere,

and other vital ingredients for life tend to hang closely to stable mid-ranges, despite

seeing fluctuations over time.

Plus, one of the most commonly accepted definitions of life holds that, for something to be considered

"alive," it must be able to reproduce.

While we haven't walked on another planet yet, we're rapidly approaching the point

where we could begin colonizing another planet, thereby creating a cute little Baby Earth.

In this analogy, we are the seeds being spread to create the next generation of planet.

Yeah, okay, maybe it's a stretch.

But it highlights humankind's acknowledgement that symbiosis is such a vitally important

part of life on this planet.

And it's a good reminder that we have a responsibility to care for the planet.

If not, I wouldn't be surprised if the Earth decided to chuck us at an invading Bulborb,

Olimar-style.

How to install Replay Mod and FFmpeg for Minecraft 1 12 - Duration: 6:06.

Hello and welcome. My name is Jay and I'll be your guide in this tutorial

This time we'll have a look at replay mod

which is a mod that allows you to record your game play to then edit it in any way you like

We'll have a look on how to install all components to make it work so lets get right in to it

First things first. Make sure you have forge 1.12 installed for this tutorial

If you don't have forge installed yet, then follow the 'how to install forge' tutorial

which is linked on screen and in the description bellow before going on with this tutorial

when you have forge setup properly, we have to first install a tool called FFmpeg

This is needed to use the rendering feature in replay mod and replay mod will not work without it

So this is quite important

To install FFmpeg we need to download 2 things

The first one is the latest FFmpeg static build for your operating system which you can find on this link

Once you are on the page, under version choose the first one

Under architecture, choose the one that matches your system

If your not sure, right click 'my computer' in the right pane of your documents or in your start menu

Choose 'properties' to open your system window and under the system section you'll see if yours is 32 or 64 bit

Under linking, choose static. After that you can click the download button

Make sure you know what folder it is downloading to because we will be using all these files in a matter of minutes

The second thing we have to download is a batch script to quickly install FFmpeg

Using this script, ffmpeg will also be used by other programs with rendering features, and not only this mod

For example Blender

Go to this website and the download will start instantly. You won't have to click anything.

If you get a security message, click to ignore it so the download starts. Its safe and it is required to use this mod

Before we start installing anything, we will also download the minecraft 1.12 version of replay mod

Go to this website and download the replay mod V1.12-2.0.0 file under minecraft 1.12

Click the download button to be redirected to an add page

Wait for the timer to run out in the top right and click 'skip add'.

You'll get a security message on the download. Click to ignore that so the download starts

The file is 100% safe. I am actually using it for nearly all the tutorials on the channel so your safe.

Now if you did everything correctly, you should have these 3 files in your download folder

Before we continue, make sure you have a program installed to unzip the FFmpeg.zip file

I'll link the different ones in the description bellow

Alright. With the 3 files ready, what we want to do next is right click the FFmpeg.zip file

And then extract it in this folder, where you downloaded the file to. 'Extract here'.

You'll get a new folder here and we'll rename that folder to simply 'FFmpeg'

So you can remove all that like so

Then in a second documents you open up your C drive where your operating system is installed to

If its D or E drive then pick that one. You basically want to have the one where your operating system is installed on to.

And then you just want to copy the FFmpeg folder in to this one so its right there

Open up this folder and then you want to drag the 'FFmpeg path installer' in to here

And double click it. You'll get a DOS window and when it says SUCCESS it means it successfully installed

Ignore this part. Its because I installed it before so it basically overwrites all the characters

This is what you'll get, without the top line

Then press any button to continue and the window will close and that installed FFmpeg

Next we want to add our Replay mod to our minecraft

so we'll type %appdata% at the top here

Then we'll open up the .minecraft folder and go in to the mods folder

If you don't have this folder yet. Right click in the white area, choose new, choose folder

and then name that folder 'mods' like it is right here. In small letters.

I'll just remove this one like so

Open up the mods folder and just drag the replaymod.jar file in to it

I already have the mod installed, its the same file, but yeah, you just want to drag it in there

And that basically adds it to your minecraft

When you did that, open up your mineraft and make sure here, in the drop-down menu, you choose forge 1.12 and then press play

I already opened it to save the whole loading time but as you can see, the mods, replay viewer and replay editor are right there

Now i'll go over over all the details on how this mod works in a later tutorial

But just to show you quick that its working. These are some of the recordings I already made for the pixel art 225 special we did earlier for you guys

But if I load this up, you will see that it actually works completely

There you go, that is the pixel art that we recorded

And as i said before, we'll go over how you can make recordings for your video's in a later tutorial

A detailed tutorial on how this mod works

And there you go, now you have replay mod installed and you can start recording and editing your game play.

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and if you did

Hit that like button down there and share it with your friends

Don't forget to subscribe for more mod and build tutorials

Thank you guys for watching and all your support

I will see you in the next tutorial. Byeeeee 'waves'

Things Die Hard Fans Don't Even Know About Jackass - Duration: 4:33.

With their crazy stunts, death defying feats, and general, all around stupidity, the cast

of Jackass have passed into the realm of urban legend.

"Hi, I'm johnny Knoxville, welcome to Jackass!"

With all the tall tales and crazy stories surrounding the gang, it's hard for people

to know what's real and what's nonsense.

Sometimes, though, truth really is stranger than fiction.

Here's a look at some things die-hard fans don't even know about Jackass.

Imitation is the deadliest form of flattery

Despite the warning at the beginning of every episode as well as the subsequent spinoff

movies, people repeatedly tried to duplicate or create their own versions of dangerous

Jackass-style stunts.

On top of multiple stories of horrifying injuries — one 14-year-old boy reportedly "burned

over 65 percent of his body" after imitating Johnny Knoxville's "Human Barbeque" stunt.

There are tragic incidents where people also lost their lives.

According to The Lubbock Avalanche Journal, in 2002, a 15-year-old from Albuquerque died

after being thrown from a car and dragged underneath it while practicing what police

believed was "a stunt he and a friend had seen on the movie Jackass."

In Maxim's oral history of the show, then-MTV President Van Toffler stressed the safety

precautions taken by the network, saying "We took tons of precautions on set.

We had safety people there all the time.

We never wanted anyone to get hurt.

It's really sad and unfortunate when stuff like that happens.

I'll leave it at that."

Senator Joe Lieberman killed the show

After a Connecticut teen also suffered burns imitating the "Human Barbeque" stunt, Senator

Joe Lieberman issued a statement publicly calling for MTV to get control of its controversial

stunt show.

"It is irresponsible for MTV to air these kinds of stunts on a program clearly popular

with young teens.

I recognize the program is rated for adults and comes with general disclaimers, but there

are some things that are so potentially dangerous and inciting, particularly to vulnerable children,

that they should not be put on TV."

Combined with a growing list of lawsuits, the attention from a senator was apparently

enough for MTV to start tightening the screws on the crazy crew.

Johnny Knoxville quit in response, saying that the new restrictions were creating "a

watered-down version of the show."

Van Toffler told Maxim, "We were symbolic of authority.

They didn't like us drawing lines, which ultimately led to the demise of the show."

But there was a silver lining: the cancellation of the show freed them up to do the movies

instead.

Steve-O is a total clown

When Jackass first introduced the world to Steve-O, he seemed like a guy who lived on

a couch in someone's trailer who you could pay small amounts of money to do practically

anything.

"it's the story you were never supposed to hear.

About the time I tried to shoot my nipple off with a BB gun."

And while at points in his life that was possibly true, Steve-O actually has a formal education

as a circus performer, revealing to Vanity Fair "I was a professional before Jackass

ever started.

I graduated from Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Clown College."

One of his old clown college classmates backed him up in a Reddit AMA, saying "I think Steve-O

probably took away many things and learned a lot, which is a layer within what he currently

does.

I have a feeling he learned a lot about timing and reactions at clown college.

And, anyone that leaves clown college is funnier than when they went in.

I can't see much else that Steve-O does that reflects anything about clown college, though."

Lingering effects

While it wasn't unusual at all for these knuckleheads to hurt themselves, most of their injuries

weren't permanent.

Unfortunately for Steve-O, whose stunts often involved him bringing up his lunch, this wasn't

the case.

In his Reddit AMA, he said he contracted something called Barrett's Esophagus, which he described

as "a pre-cancerous condition in my throat/esophagus for which I blame all of my vomiting, drug

abuse, and generally s***ty living in years past."

Johnny Knoxville also suffered long-term effects after famously rupturing his urethra while

trying to backflip a motorcycle during a stunt for MTV's 24-hour Jackass marathon special.

"why couldn't I get a broken arm or leg, or a broken coller.

But no, I got blood shooting out my pee pee.

I injured the only body part that has meaning to me."

Part of his healing process involved him cathetering himself twice a day for three years with a

tube the size of a number two pencil, just "to keep the scar tissue from constricting

down there," he told Vanity Fair.

He also described his unfortunate appendage as "a dog's chew-toy" and "like a sock that's

lost its elasticity."

There's more, since he talks about it a lot, but… we all kinda get it at this point.

That bites

When it comes to telling stories about injuries, Bam Margera has a whopper of a tale about

the one that got away.

In an interview with IGN, Margera said he came up with the idea to have boxer and notorious

ear-biter Mike Tyson bite off his ear — which he was willing to do because of how much "street

cred" he'd have.

Amazingly, the production company for the films actually contacted the former heavyweight

champ and asked him if he would do it.

As Margera recalled, "Paramount contacted Mike Tyson and he got offended and he said

no."

It's a pretty amazing scenario when Mike Tyson comes through as the voice of reason.

Alyson Neaves | 2017 Terry Bryant Scholarship Winner - Duration: 14:39.

Good afternoon.

My name is Cindy Speaker, and I'm delighted today to have a special guest.

Her name is Alyson Neaves, and Alyson is the- Hi.

Hi, Alyson.

Alyson is the 2017 Terry Bryant Scholarship winner.

Alyson, thanks for being here.

No problem.

Thank you for having me.

Yeah.

Well now, tell us where you're from and what high school you went to.

I was a senior at Perry High School, which is located in Chandler, Arizona, which is

a suburb of the Phoenix area.

I graduated in the class of 2017.

I am familiar with the Houston area as I applied to a school in that area, but I will be attending

Arizona State University in the fall with The Barrett Honors College to study mechanical

engineering.

Oh, excellent.

Mechanical engineering.

Yes.

Okay.

Yeah.

Very good.

Very good.

Well listen, I've watched your presentation.

We're going to actually show a little bit of it later on, but I think it's phenomenal.

Oh, thank you.

You talk about the inherent dangers of distracted driving.

Tell me a little bit about why that topic resonated with you, and I say that for this

reason.

Because there's a lot of passion in that, especially at the end.

We'll see the end and talk about that, but tell me why that topic resonates with you,

maybe any personal experience you have with it.

Well, for myself, I've actually been involved in a car accident where a distracted driver

hit me.

Wow.

He hit the side where my younger sister was on, so I personally felt ... Fortunately,

everyone was okay, but the car was damaged severely.

For myself, I wanted to make a presentation and speak out about a lot of people are driving

and are unaware of the effect they can have if they're not focused on it.

When you're driving, it requires your full attention.

If you're not willing to give that full attention, then you shouldn't be driving.

Yeah.

That's why I wanted to speak to that and help others see that point of view.

Yeah.

You know, I thought there might be a personal story there because your presentation had

a lot of passion in it.

Yeah.

I could just feel the passion in it.

As I said, especially at the end when you talk about statistics ... You come down to

the end, it's pretty powerful.

Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Thank you.

Let me ask you this because as a ... I'm confident, and especially now in meeting you even though

briefly, I'm sure that you're a role model to a lot of people.

Thank you.

What do you have to say to maybe younger people that are tempted to drive distracted?

What advice do you have for them?

My advice would first be that your life and your ... Even if it's not so much your life,

because not everybody loses their life, but you want to avoid a car accident at all cost.

You don't want to injure anyone else.

We're all on the road together, so you have to hold accountability for yourself to be

a responsible driver.

I know a lot of students who get their driver's license.

They're new to driving, and they don't have the experience that older drivers do.

They'll get in car accidents because they'll do things that they see experienced drivers

doing without having that experience, such as texting and driving or driving if they've

been drinking, which you should never do either of those.

Because at the end of the day, you have a responsibility every time you get behind the

wheel to drive to the best of your ability.

If you're impaired or if you're distracted, then you're not driving to the best of your

ability.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Absolutely.

Let me ask you this because this is a little bit of a more difficult situation.

If you're a passenger in a car with a peer and they're distracted in some way while they're

driving, how do you address that situation?

Or do you address it?

Well, you should always address it.

Because at the end of the day, not only is it yourself in danger, but your friend.

If you care about your friend, then you should help that they are driving responsibly.

Yeah.

I have been in this situation myself, personally.

I think every teenager has, and the best thing I've found is to tell them, "Hey, if you're

driving, then you should be focused on driving."

If they're texting, maybe offer to send the text for them, or take the phone away.

Just some things that they don't have to worry about whatever's going on on their phone and

that you can help them out.

Because at the end of the day, you're both trying to get there together safely.

Helping them out to realize that they're not being safe in that moment might be difficult,

but ultimately you're helping both of you.

Right.

Right.

How difficult is it to deal with what can potentially be peer pressure in a situation

like that?

It depends also on the type of friends you have.

Like, if you have a friend who you're very close to and they are aware that you guys

are best friends, then it's a lot easier to say, "Hey, I really care about you.

This is not safe, and we need to address this.

We can't be doing this while we're driving."

If it's a newer friend, you might want to step back and don't want to step on their

toes, but, like I said, if you're in a vehicle with this person and they're going to be responsible

for your safety, then you have every right to address if they're not driving safely.

Yeah.

If they're not, you have to be able to stand your ground and say, "Hey, I'm not going to

let you make me back down from this.

This is not right.

I would rather drive myself or drive separately."

That way, you're not in that situation again if they're not responding to you.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think that's great advice, and I think that young people have to do that.

Because it's like you said, I mean, both lives are really at risk in those situations as

well as other drivers, potentially.

Mm-hmm (affirmative).

Yeah.

Of course.

I mean, we're all driving here together.

We can never be responsible for what other drivers are doing, but we can be responsible

for ourself and be more aware to avoid dangerous situations.

Do you see this as a big problem with young people today?

Oh, yeah.

Definitely.

Of course.

I would say so.

I mean, even with myself there's times where it's like I'm in the middle of a text conversation

and I have to drive somewhere, and it's like ... I really have to work to say, "Hey, I

got to go right now.

I need to go drive."

You have to kind of put your effort into it and say, "I'm going to make a commitment to

myself and to the other drivers on the road to drive safely."

I think it's really prevalent also with social media and notifications on your phone.

Because even people who get notifications I see won't even go to respond to them but

just to check them.

It's like, that's still two seconds that you have your eyes off the road.

That's right.

You need to have complete focus.

Right.

Right.

I think it's definitely something we need to address more.

Yeah.

Well, Alyson, let's watch a little bit of that presentation right now.

Okay.

Yeah, let's do so.

Well, as I said, and for those of you that just watched that, that end is very powerful

when it talks about zero.

I wrote it down.

Zero, that's the number of excuses there are for being a distracted driver.

Yes.

That's a great message to all of us because I don't care what the reason is, there are

zero excuses for being a distracted driver.

The odds are just too great.

Yeah.

I think- I mean, your safety is important above any

conversation, social media post.

Your safety comes before anything on your phone.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Now, I believe you said- Or not even on your ... Oh, sorry.

No, go ahead.

Or not even on your phone, but also what's going on in your vehicle.

If you have a passenger or something and they're trying to distract you, you need to have a

conversation with that passenger to say, "I'm trying to get us both to where we need to

be safely, and I care about you, and I need to focus on the road."

Yeah.

It's not even always phones but just all the other distractions we have.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Now, how did you come to find out about this scholarship and apply?

What was the process?

Were you just searching online, or how did it come about that you knew about this?

Well, I was searching online.

I was using a specific app, that's Scholly, which offers a lot of scholarships.

Okay.

I went through Scholly.

I saw the Terry Bryant Scholarship, and I realized that it was about distracted driving.

Oh, excellent.

That was something where I had already done presentations on then, and it was something

that I personally had some knowledge of.

I figured I could share that, and if I happened to win the scholarship, it would be a great

thing for my family and I to go to college.

Yeah.

Oh, that's terrific.

That's terrific.

What is your thoughts about what ... Mr. Bryant, and I think you know a little bit about his

firm.

Mm-hmm (affirmative).

They deal with the unfortunate results of accidents just like this where there's been

a distracted driver, someone is injured.

What is your perception as far as that type of work and that business.

I'm just curious about what you might think as a young person.

I mean, obviously, I don't have much experience with the law or anything like that, but I

do think it's important to bring justice.

I know for myself when I was in my car accident, my car was nearly totaled.

We had to go through a lot of stuff with who was being cited.

They were ultimately cited with everything, but in that moment, I knew it was nice to

have somebody on my side who was going to make sure that my car wasn't going to be lost

or that I wouldn't lose any of my privilege for somebody else's actions.

Yeah.

It was nice for me to know that somebody was there to help me out in that situation.

That's good.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I think it's valuable work also to bring more attention as well to the situation, to say

if you've been involved in an accident, you don't have to be silent and you don't have

to just let it go.

You can make sure that justice is given, you know?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Because of that work and what Mr. Bryant deals with, and that's part of why he developed

this scholarship, to address this problem and try and create more awareness ... There

is a lot of awareness, but it's almost like you can't have too much awareness because

this is truly a pervasive problem.

Oh, yeah.

It's something that everybody experiences every day.

I mean, I think everybody has had an experience where they're driving down the road on a busy

highway, and they'll look beside them and see somebody on their phone.

It's almost like, "How are you driving and doing this at the same time?"

It concerns you because it's like, "I'm on the road with this person who is being irresponsible."

Right.

If you have that concern, then it's your responsibility to make sure that you're not concerning others

and that you're being responsible.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That's my personal opinion of it.

Yeah.

No, that's great.

Alyson, you're quite an impressive young lady.

You truly are.

Thank you.

You mentioned, I believe, that you said you want to ... Did you say you want to be a mechanical

engineer?

Yes.

Okay.

I'm going through mechanical engineering right now.

Tell me exactly what that role is.

I'm not completely sure what a mechanical engineer does, and why you chose it.

Well, for me, I chose mechanical engineering because I looked at many different disciplines

of engineering, and I found that there was not one specifically that called out to me.

I liked a little bit of everything.

Okay.

I looked at mechanical engineering, which focuses a bit more on the process of engineering,

as well as how we can improve systems and how they can work more effectively, while

also combining chemistry and physics, which are my favorite class subjects.

Wow.

Wow.

Wow.

On top of that it's more math heavy.

I've always been that weirdo who loves math, so I would love to do a job where I could

work with math and calculus.

Give me a specific application of maybe the type of thing that you would hope to do when

you graduate.

Well, I know for myself, I did a job shadow with Air Products, which is a company that's

national, but they have a campus here in Arizona.

Okay.

I went and I job shadowed the plant engineer, which was very interesting to me because his

job was basically looking at their distribution system and seeing how they can improve it,

how they could work more effectively and basically provide people their services easier and faster.

Yeah.

It was a lot of math.

It was also a lot of hands on, where he was out in the campus actually working on the

units, which is another thing I like.

I like being able to work with my hands, so for me, having that experience and talking

to him was something that inspired me to go into mechanical engineering.

I think after I graduate, I would hope to go into something similar to that, working

with a plant, or quality review, or something like that.

Excellent.

Excellent.

Well, I know that you have a bright future ahead of you.

Thank you so much.

Go ahead.

I just want to say thank you for interviewing me and for being able to allow me to share

my opinion on this.

I was so honored to win this scholarship, and I would love to help bring more awareness

to the issue.

Oh, well you've done that, and that's awesome.

What a lovely young lady.

Is there anything you want me to pass on that you'd like to say to Mr. Bryant personally?

I would love to thank him for the opportunity to have this scholarship.

I can't tell you how much it means to my family and I. I'm the first child, and I ... Well,

I'm the first child in my family to ever go to college, so we've been struggling with

how are we going to pay for all this when scholarships are available but it's difficult

to win them?

So, I would like to thank Mr. Bryant for giving this opportunity to more students and allowing

it to be something where not only are you able to help pay for school, but also to help

your fellow peers in awareness.

I myself learned stuff that I didn't know about distracted driving, so it was a valuable

experience.

I'm very glad to have applied for this scholarship.

Thank you so much.

You are a delightful young lady, and honestly, I thank you.

It's our privilege to get to interview you and talk with you.

I think you have ... Not only did you do a powerful presentation, but you just gave a

powerful interview that I think- Thank you.

... will live on through video and digital media and inspire other young people.

Alyson, thank you so much for being with us today.

No problem.

Thank you so much for having me.

Okay.

Best of luck to you.

Thank you.

Best of luck to everyone at Terry Bryant and all of their customers.

Thank you.
