God, I am so with Grey on the tipping thing. It gives me SO much anxiety. Trouble is, I live in America, where everyone's bought into this utterly insane tipping culture. And on top of it, I'm just awful at basic arithmetic, so even the "straightforward" tipping at restaurants makes me nervous. It's like once it's time to go everything's on a fucking timer and I'm back in elementary school counting with my fingers under the desk so the teacher doesn't see. That's the real reason I only go to restaurants with other people: so they can figure that out for me. Literally, if I didn't have to tip, I'd go to restaurants alone all the time. I've tried being a dick and just not tipping, but that's even worse because everyone who expects tips make it super awkward, because god for-fucking-bid we live in a world where monetary transactions can just be handled verbally. No no no, let's pretend we *don't* want any money, but still expect the customer to pay via implicit cultural osmosis. People would actually rather not be tipped and just be pissed at you than debase themselves by stating that they would like a tip. CAN'T HAVE USEFUL COMMUNICATION HELP US THROUGH THIS TRANSACTION NO SIR - FUCK YOU FOR NOT BEING COMFORTABLE GIVING ME AN UNDISCLOSED SUM BASED ON RULES YOU'VE NEVER BEEN EXPLICITLY TAUGHT
While I agree with Grey that it is stupid, I do not think that participating in the tipping culture is a good way to make it better. Employers should have to pay their workers at least minimum wage and tips should be something on top people give to workers that they think truly deserve it., not just every single waiter every single time someone is at a restaurant. Laws need to be changed to stop this tipping madness.
I feel it. i usually dont tip depending on the job of the individual and how well they do it but when it comes to the math of tipping...i guess to the amount. Too lazy for math to tip the coffee girl the proper amount that early so i just give her money.
Tipping isn't a good practice in my opinion, especially concerning the reason why it has become such a "tradition" in the United States. (don't know about other countries except japan, who do not accept tips as it is seen as rude as they don't believe they need to be payed extra for just doing their job, and it comes off as pretentious for a customer to bestow upon them their pocket change) Tipping was first implemented during american prohibition, as the waiters and waitresses working in the illegal bars weren't able to be payed adequately, if at all. The patrons of these illegal bars would tip in effort to make sure the wait staff wouldn't starve to death at the time. When prohibition ended, this tipping system still happened, and even made its way into laws in various states and counties. Some of which declaring that jobs which may accept tips aren't affected by minimum wage laws. Which is horrible, as those waiters literally have to work their ass off even harder than anyone else you will ever know for less than minimum wage, just to try to ensure they get tips so they can eat top ramen in a studio apartment with a broken toilet and water pressure that makes a childs squirt gun look like a riot control hose.
Brady: "What are we gonna do after the vinyl episode then?" Brady: "I guess we're gonna have to get one of those cylinders" Grey: "You really are. Just wait. 44:00 Grey making accurate AF predictions.
What Grey and Brady apparently fail to realize about military airships is that the gas inside is a) lighter than air and b) not pressurized. Therefore, they can fly just fine even if they are riddled with bullet holes. They are also relatively cheap. These factors together make them an ideal observation platform which is either a) invincible or b) costs more to remove than it cost to build.
Love that there's a vinyl record for the video, of course it had to be, I wish it was the vinyl Hello Internet episode, but I don't think they have them yet, lol.
Last night I was sitting on my computer really, really mourning the fact that there was no new Hello Internet podcast yet (I thought it would make a great soundtrack to my Steam game). Shoulda just waited one day and all will be revealed!
This might be the 100th, maybe 10,000th time someone has said this, but water is (at least theoretically) so integral to the formation of life because it is a universal solvent. (This goes along with 5 other properties of water that make it so vital for organic interactions as we know them) It can interact with molecules with hydrogen bonds, or other polar molecules, or mostly nonpolar molecules that happen to have a tiny polar segment. It is especially effective on ionic atoms/molecules. It's a small polar molecule, meaning it could fit in to small molecular gaps to interact with something that it is able to interact with.
OMG. Now the Hello Internet COMMUNITY has such a wonderful chance to participate together with a tangible, physical incarnation of the HI FAMILY. Like breaking off a little piece of your children and handing it out to strangers!
It's weird that I'm IT "specialist" and I keep telling to my customers and friends that do backups. And I'm the one who recovers their data when their devices fail but then I don't keep any type of backups of my personal computers. But that also mean I don't have any real personal data that I want to keep. Makes fresh installs so much easier when you can just start clean,
My 1st vinyl record was a Van Halen Single,then like a week later I bought Van Halen 1984,I lot's of 8 tracks,a few vinal records,tons of Cassettes.I sort of skipped the CD format,I think I've bought maybe 15,then eventually to digital.
I thought TIPS meant ''To Insure Prime Service''. That's why people would tip first while staying at a hotel so the staff would serve them better during their whole stay.
re: the strangers and tags thing: this seems regional in the US. Rural places or in the south this is more common than in big cities or the west coast, IMHO
Idk. I think the reason we haven't ever heard anything else out there is that we are unique. In the fact that we survived long enough to actually broadcast out there. I think intelligent life has existed, and probably exists still, but either died before they could get to the stage of broadcasting, or aren't at that stage technology-wise yet. I highly doubt many (if any at all) forms of intelligent life were destroyed by extraterrestrial interaction. More likely natural disasters or something like that.
Grey, I think the term "auto" will never catch on. And the simple reason is that this word is already reserved for normal cars in most countries that manufacture cars.
Vinyl is a no-go for me, but I'd be 100% down for a Hello Internet episode on a Game Boy Color cart. A few GBC games had digitized speech, but I'm not sure how much you could fit onto a cartridge. Perfect Dark and Dragon's Lair are some of the highest-end GBC games, weighing in at 4mb, so just squeeze down 90 minutes of podcast into a 4MB cart with a minimal interface and sell it to me, it'll be great
Sending a swarm of satellites to an unknown planet(like the one mentioned in the eposide) sounds like a really bad idea. If there was intelligent life on that planet and it sees us sending 100 or 200 of these things, it might consider it as an invasion attempt and consider us a hostile life. Honestly, I don't quite know if we are actually friendly or hostile towards the possible life in other planets.
grey the Fermi paradox is just stupid, its like going to the beach with a glass cup, scooping up some water and coming to the conclusion that there are no wales in the ocean.
abopfred then explain your reason for it not being so, people forget how slow light is compared to the size of the universe and the probability of live (as far as we know) is very very low.
The Fermi paradox isn't "stupid", but yes one of the possible answers is that life is *just* rare enough that we simply haven't stumbled across it yet.
abopfred The paradox is that since the universe is so large, the expectation is that life can't possibly be rare in an absolute sense of counting how much life there is (even if it's rare as a percentage of all the stars in the sky) So the universe should be a busy place, even if we're only a few million years into intelligent life being generally viable - and its entirely possible we're much further in than that. And it's been calculated that a lifeform that simply wants to maximize its diaspora could build self-assembling self-replicating probes full of embryos, send them off to the nearest inhabitable stars with instructions to send their next generation to the nearest inhabitable stars, and effectively colonize-by-proxy their entire galaxy in less than a 100,000 years. Which means timing is pretty crucial, because that's not even the most pessimistic take on what imperialistic intelligent life could do That's an extremely small and lucky window for us to be missing, considering our own evolution can be well-traced far enough back that artificial seeding is incredibly unlikely for us. So if we're not artificially placed here, and we haven't seen anything or heard anything yet, but statistically extraterrestrial life should have progressed far enough in enough planets to be well more advanced than us...where is everybody?
To be honest, the first aliens we'll meet will probably will be AI. God, I hate thinking about that because at least there is mantle of humanity involve to computer science. It's base on human logic even if robot start reprogramming themselves they can't get rid of this humanity. Alien AI would be base on their creator mantle. It's terrifying to think we won't share an origin with this AI. Human AI now gives me a warm feeling though.
So the first time we emitted so message in space was approx 70 years ago, and light speed really is fucking slow on a space scale, so it's really no wonder nobody received our message, and that there is no message that came to us. Really I don't understand the fear you have about that.
The most likely solution to the Fermi Paradox is that humanity is alone in the universe. We're almost certainly the only civilized species in our galaxy, and quite probably the only one in our observable universe. The conditions for life are rare, the conditions for multicellular life are rare, and the conditions for the rise of civilization are rare, so when you multiply it all together, you get a number that roughly cancels out the number of stars in the observable universe and leaves just us. There are no monsters in the skies, just the monsters in our hearts. Our destiny is in our hands. Isn't that scariest of all?
What the hell its only been announced for an hour and their sold out already? and you put a notice on your website but not an annotation into the video? Its a big time waster :/
It hadn't only been announced for an hour, it's been announced for over a week now. This episode came out on the 30th of Augest. If you listen to the podcast on TH-cam, you are always going to be listening to the podcast late cause it comes out on podcast players before it comes out on TH-cam.
Skywise Minecraft No I'm not, you just have to accept the fact that you're going to hear about news late if you listen to the podcast on TH-cam. That's your own fault.

OH THE VINYL EPISODE!!!
The whole time I was thinking it was the "Final Episode", now I can stop sobbing.
I couldn't stop laughing at about Grey's tip anxiety. It's too true
I was literally finishing up #67 yesterday and being like, "Man, I have to wait so long for a new ep," and then I saw this in the related vids. Bless

+CoolieCoolster agreed
Tips are to be earned.
I feel it. i usually dont tip depending on the job of the individual and how well they do it but when it comes to the math of tipping...i guess to the amount. Too lazy for math to tip the coffee girl the proper amount that early so i just give her money.

The cover art for the record looks awesome.
the final version, or my original drawings?
they both are good but yours has heart
Both.

Lol
Haha that's hilarious. I can't wait do listen to the pirated mp3.

51:29 ...Aside from that one episode where the incident was the controller making two planes fly into each other.
Love that there's a vinyl record for the video, of course it had to be, I wish it was the vinyl Hello Internet episode, but I don't think they have them yet, lol.
a couple of days after filing this, I did receive the "test pressings" but not got the finished product yet.
Ah, nice, well know you have a 100,000 subscribers, so you'll get a silver play button!

What brand of record player was used in the video accompanying this?
Last night I was sitting on my computer really, really mourning the fact that there was no new Hello Internet podcast yet (I thought it would make a great soundtrack to my Steam game). Shoulda just waited one day and all will be revealed!

Brady's artwork is actually impresive
Wth? The video says 135 views, so I clicked the link, but it's already sold out.
podcast went up sooner than youtube this time. Check out the subreddit for the releases
It came out on podcast players and their website etc on the 30th of August and the vinyl sold out incredibly quickly
There will be another chance soon - watch for advanced notice... There will be advanced notice.
Finally in TH-cam.
im exicted for the next episode: ex machina.
Indeed. I've already done my homework twice! :D
Fuck yeah! Vinyl master race. I'd love that.
Going through the back catalog, it's great to hear them joke about a wax cylinder
OMG. Now the Hello Internet COMMUNITY has such a wonderful chance to participate together with a tangible, physical incarnation of the HI FAMILY.
Like breaking off a little piece of your children and handing it out to strangers!
I actually own a USB record player, but "ripping" it would feel wrong if it is exclusive to vinyl :/
Unfortunately it is sold out already :(
It's weird that I'm IT "specialist" and I keep telling to my customers and friends that do backups. And I'm the one who recovers their data when their devices fail but then I don't keep any type of backups of my personal computers.

tipping in america gives me anxiety even when I listen about it casually living my life as a student in ukraine
Brady, you are awesome. Love you both.
When he mentions '...or on wax cilinders' there at beginning... Little past Grey, not knowing what awaits him.
new podcast, sweet!
...oh, i already caught this on the website. :(
congrats on 100k subscribers
You were in Jackson Hole? You might have just had 2000 people watching you as you passed through the town square ;D.
just looked on discogs... the LP now sells for roundabout 200 dollars
Just getting caught up. Did I miss the second sale? I sure more people than me have missed out.
I thought TIPS meant ''To Insure Prime Service''. That's why people would tip first while staying at a hotel so the staff would serve them better during their whole stay.
That doesn't make sense - Ensure perhaps, but not Insure, these are two completely different concepts. Instigate would be a far more appropriate word.
I think that Brady has made Grey a real Softie. He used to be much more of a hard-ass in the early episodes.
there is ISR that are blimps, used to live under one in Afghanistan in 2011.
Damnnet! I wanted to get thats album!!!!!
REPRESS REPRESS REPRESS
lets get a movement going for a repress!!!!
Guys, vinyl record players are just under £40 ($45, $50) so definitly worth it for this!
a deck is, but the actual record of this episode isn't.
It's not this episode that they're releasing on vinyl
Marcos Pereira we know.
BTW the eerie feeling you are describing is called kenopsia.
The ball of dust on the needle in the footage caused me physical pain.
re: the strangers and tags thing: this seems regional in the US. Rural places or in the south this is more common than in big cities or the west coast, IMHO
The fact that we can't find life outside of our universe could lend to the idea that we are in a simulation. THINK ABOUT THAT!
In Which episode did they talk about AI?
Idk. I think the reason we haven't ever heard anything else out there is that we are unique. In the fact that we survived long enough to actually broadcast out there. I think intelligent life has existed, and probably exists still, but either died before they could get to the stage of broadcasting, or aren't at that stage technology-wise yet.
I highly doubt many (if any at all) forms of intelligent life were destroyed by extraterrestrial interaction. More likely natural disasters or something like that.
I think the Wyoming flag should have the ratio of the Wyoming state border
Grey if you were King what would our Taxes be?
MAKE ANOTHER BATCH, I DIDN'T GET HERE SOON ENOUGH!
Grey, I think the term "auto" will never catch on. And the simple reason is that this word is already reserved for normal cars in most countries that manufacture cars.
Airships as a concept are flipping amazing, most of the ones built were kind of terrible.
I like the idea but I want to listen to this and I'm 14, I'm not getting a record player so how am I supposed to listen to it
freebooting is your friend
tip isn't the incentive.
Actually getting customers is the incentive
Someone needs to replace the Nail and Gear with Flaggy Flag in the setting sun
NOOO!!! RECORD IS SOLD OUT!!
Vinyl is a no-go for me, but I'd be 100% down for a Hello Internet episode on a Game Boy Color cart. A few GBC games had digitized speech, but I'm not sure how much you could fit onto a cartridge.

Record players are kinda popular in Europe. At least I know many people who have them. And I have one... Weird I guess.
Well I was gonna go to bed after the last video.............
I want to know what's on that vinyl. I won't buy it and i might pirate it eventually. Still you're great!
Ex Machina is my favourite movie.
You would be surprised. I have a record player and I am 17. Inspired from no such thing as a fish.
how have you guys not watched Ex Machina!! its so up your allyways
The vinyl is already sold out -.-

I listened to Hank and John Green's Podcast and Hank had a similar idea. so odd.
i'm not the only one who owns a record and actually uses it right?
Jesus Christ stop scaring me, now I'm afraid of Space.

The civilization talk made me think of Wakanda choosing to stay hidden.
Canada borders Greenland which is Denmark.
Anyone else super bothered by the bit of lint on the needle?
it's stressing me out, even more so than seeing a vinyl on a Crosley...
It's look like heavy metal record.
My dad loves mayday.

When Brady was saying winker it sounded like wanker. LOL I'm a few levels below a wanker. It takes charisma to be a wanker.
What the hell its only been announced for an hour and their sold out already? and you put a notice on your website but not an annotation into the video? Its a big time waster :/
