i once had a very boring outdoors job and one summer our boss bought us a salt gun and let me tell u it definitely works and was definitely fun. we’d just spend hours shooting flies
Got myself a bug-a-salt years ago. Got a real gun laser sight attached (the one made for the bug-a-salt is garbage) plus a holster. Love the thing. Used it several times.
man! I didn't know that there is a third version of the Bug A Salt. I have the second version. I'm going to upgrade right away. Try using it against a sheet of aluminum foil.
Things you should know about CVS. First, a few years ago, it bought Aetna for $70 BILLION. Was it worth the price? Nope. Aetna has been bleeding money ever since. So what does CVS do? Two things. First, when you run your prescription through CVS, its computers automatically switch your insurance coverage to Aetna, even though you never had Aetna in your life. For example, I had a prescription with a $40 copay. But then CVS ran it through Aetna and the copay suddenly became $495. CVS said such a thing was impossible (though I had caught it doing the same thing in California several years ago). So it sent its regional manager into my local CVS. Same thing happened to him because it was intentional. Second thing. The Aetna folks convinced CVS to open Minut Clinics in most of its stores. Took a lot of valuable and profitable selling space and gave it to the clinics run by Aetna. What happened? No one used these clinics, so CVS lost billions of dollars nationally because it had given up valuable selling space. Now CVS has to convince its vendors to come back and restore things to the way they were, but the vendors are charging multi-millions to do that-and CVS has to pay. This is a company in a lot of financial trouble. So why should you be surprised if nothing you buy there doesn't work as expected. the new CVS goal is to take as much money from you as it can without actually giving you anything of worth.
As a non-American I need an explanation, I imagine that Insurance is something that you have to pay for. As in, someone has to _actually do a transaction,_ so how does one suddenly get to be automatically signed up for insurance?
I hated dealing with them the few times I tried getting meds there, and the prices on their other stuff is nuts. Use local or regional pharmacies if you can folks lol
Don't even have to get rechargeable AA's. You can buy packs that slot into the battery compartment and have a usb c. You can charge your pack and when the pack eventually dies (as all batteries do) you can pull it out and replace it with another pack. Xbox's implementation and using the batteries is by far the superior option. There's a reason why so many 360 controllers are still around and still in use despite being wireless and battery powered. It's because they gave you a readily replaceable option.
they literally could have put a charge port on the controller and included rechargeable batteries though. or if they dont want to risk someone charging it with non-rechargeable batts in, have a cheap wall or even cheaper usb charger separately from the controller
@@TheHenirik It's not Microsoft responsibility to make sure people use a certain type of battery or not. They give you the freedom to use what you want. And I mean they 100% did offer the plug and play charging kits. It's just aftermarket companies offered the usb c chargers after the fact. Which again is something that would have been impossible if they didn't allow replacing the batteries in such easy fashion. USB c didn't exist when 360's end of life came around.
@@exturkconner wouldn't be impossible but much easier with the Xbox system yes, it would really incentive people to actually use rechargeable batteries if it came with them though, and nothing stops them from having them as easily replaceable as they are
@@TheHenirik No it would have been impossible. USB-C didn't exist at the time. You can't retroactively put a port in physical item. Unless it's got a pack like the microsoft controllers.
1 bit dacs are actually very much a thing. They are in fact almost certainly in every audio device you use, even high quality ones. They are also called delta-sigma-dacs or pdm dacs. PDM (pulse density modulation) is somewhat simmilar to pwm, as in that it uses only two states or one bit to represent an analog value, but because of various math reasons pdm is better at recreating an analog signal than pwm when applying a low pass filter to it. The tradeoff is that you need a much higher output samplerate to compensate for the lost analog values but as it turns out, samplerates many magnitudes faster than what audio needs are easily achievable. So instead of outputting one single 16 bit sample we output a whole bunch of 1 bit samples (8 bit or 256 samples per sample is common and because of how audio behaves generally enough). Making the dac go faster is much simpler and cheaper than making it output more different values and turns out it is also much easier to make a dac that behaves linearly this way. Tl:dr 1-bit dacs are everywhere and unless your device speciffically says it is multi bit it is probaply 1-bit and that is perfectly fine. The fact they use that as advertising however is hillarious
Those batteries in PS4 controllers, especially 3rd party ones, die. May as well have rechargable double AAs you can switch out when they die, or even charge while you play if you want with their pack. Options. I like options.
There actually are 1-bit DACs. Including on audiophile CD players, so no, this isn't just for NES and Atari audio. They actually can handle regular 16bit audio, they just make it work harder but the sound is generally smoother than 16bit DACs that are technically better but have that sharper sound to them that people tend to associate with digital audio. Think of it like how a 64core CPU is not necessarily better than a really good quad core on just gaming.
No joke... The situation that Austin described... Happened to me... I installed wow on my grandma's computer and pretty much locked myself in their office to avoid my cousins...
I had those exact same sony earbuds as a kid. Dankpods just had them in a video as well. It's crazy I spend hundreds of hours using them, loved the transparent blue but that's about all they have going.
I have the same mouse pad. I thought mine was defective until I saw it in the video. It's not defective, it's just bad. I just don't plug it in. It doesn't deserve a USB port.
4:46 Coby was my first CD player, I ever had. It's sensitive to bumps, and worked for years. This is what I used on the school bus, before MP3's,IPODs, and after cassette player's. Although I've never really owned a IPOD since they came out, I'm always under the impression that,"Apple products are EXPENSIVE." that is by no means an excuse to not get them that is just my impression of them. I'll get a apple product someday. Great video Matt and Austin.
that mouse looks like the exact mouse I got at a dollar store in Canada .. it was $4 canadian .. super light ... cheap plastic .. but actually works well ... well worth the $4
1 bit dac is fine... Simplified explanation is It takes a 16bit 44.1khz pcm signal from the cd converts it digitally to 1bit and something in the 1.4+Mhz range which is fed to the dac... The resulting output due to the oversampling and noise shaping is going to be more than capable of quality reproduction of the audio The circuitry is simpler and cheaper to produce than an equal quality multibit dac I'd bet every portable and even not so portable cd player I've owned (most of which have all been from a major brand like Sony or panasonic) have used 1bit
I got an A-Salt Rifle for my birthday, and I really just need the safety removed. It is too hard for me to move it and the bug flys away before I can disarm the machine. :(
I wanna know what you're supposed to do if the hand massager dies while you're using it and it's completely pressed down on your hand do you just live the rest of your days as megaman?
If you are buying high end batteries you might aswell grab a battery charger for $10 and pay the little extra for rechargeable batteries and save money and waste for years to come
Rechargeable NiMH batteries are only 1,2v instead of the 1,5v alkaline or these Li-Ion AA's have. Also, NiMH have a far sharper voltage drop when being in use, making them inferior batteries.
For under $20 bucks I have a pair of rechargeable battery packs designed for the Xbox 1 controller It's a direct drop and fit battery pack, you get 2 so when one starts to get weak you just swap it out. Currently at Walmart for $15.88 when purchased online (can pick up in store)
My gf made so much fun of me when I got a bug-a-salt for camping. Guess who had to buy her one of her own after our first trip? Especially when she found out there was a pink one.
You can tell that Austin was raised to respect firearms. Much respect, the only time I have ever struck another person was when my bestie decided to peep at me through the barrel of his double barrel breach stock. I wouldn't have reacted badly had I not been working on his PC behind the desk and saw a double barrel pointed at my face when I popped back up.
Ok the hand massager is actually a good thing to have. You spent waaaaay too much though! I got one off Amazon for $39 (I have EDS so no collagen in my body, and my hands hurt really bad). It actually helps me a lot 🤷🏻♀️.
You don't have to get rechargeable batteries for Xbox controller, you can just get a rechargeable pack. You can usually get one with a charging dock and an extra pack so you can swap packs on the fly. I did that for like 10+ years on xbox before I switched to pc
They sell Xbox battery packs In pharmacies? Oh they don't. That's why they did not get one. They were just mentioning it could be used for that. Could also go for remotes. Rc cars, ect. If they mentioned everything it could be used for we would be here all day
Isn't Mace a brand of pepperspray and is not actually pepperspray itself? so they can name anything of self defence products under the brand name Mace right?
Honestly, I wouldn’t work around anyone that can’t get it in their head to not point anything remotely looking like a firearm near or at people. “but trigger discipline” don’t mean jack. My right ear has about 20% hearing left after a Swiss K31 went off 2 feet from the ear. the owner of said firearm was “practicing good trigger finger control” and that accident still happened. +5 to Austin. ok rant over.

Amazing how every video always has that one insufferable know it all copy pasting Wikipedia paragraphs like they’re a genius.
Was literally going to say it's a movie not a band
“Who’s the 10% that don’t use their hands every day?” Amputees, quadriplegics, comatose patients, people born without hands, and Dwight Shrute.
Austin: Who's the 10% who doesn't use their hands daily?

There is now a CO2 powered pistol, made by Bug a Salt.

@@epicgaming11195 weird glitch
I was going to say the same thing. 1-bit is basically all you need and is pretty much the go-to for audio.
LG loves to put quad dacs in their phones.
yo Austin your shirts sick , love the gym badges design.. keep up the good work the channels sick and your crew is dope too. great job dog
Lol now I'm curious if the mouse pad actually worked before having the cheap wiring and plastic slammed (flapped) down on the table lol
i have it and it works fine, pretty sure austin broke it lol
Duluth Minnesota is a very nice place MATT
17.99 for those headphones? bruh for 2 bucks more I can just get some KZ ES4s
“I did go to the corner of happy and healthy. Unfortunately I am neither of those things.” Love it
I really enjoy the Dynamic Duo of Austin and Matt and of course when Kyle shows up. It gets even more entertaining.
Those batteries in PS4 controllers, especially 3rd party ones, die. May as well have rechargable double AAs you can switch out when they die, or even charge while you play if you want with their pack. Options. I like options.

I had the exactly same coby cd player when I was in high school burning my own audio cds.
😂😂😂 Duluth MN. How do you even know! 😂💀
I'm a Kentuckian and proud of it! Thanks for the shout out.
The folksman were a spoof band that the guys from Spinal Tap played as. Sometimes they were their own support act.
A Mighty Wind is great, so funny.
Great as always - love this channel. Boop it on the snoot!
literally started the video with bug assault and battery
It's a good days when This Is uploads!

Just a heads up A Mighty Wind is a fantastic flick from the team behind This is Spinal Tap!
Never saw the movie but I think Never Did No Wanderin' is legitimately a great song (about going nowhere).
I’ve never fought an elf before but I will fight Austin.

That last product : ... "hear me out".
Gotta send those AA's to Big Clive.
A 1 bit Dac just means an on/off switch for analog to digital audio so while it's technically a dac there's no real processing happening
Mace is a brand name just like VELCRO or Kleenex. Mace made pepper spray a mainstream thing in the US and is actually illegal in Canada for no reason.
I don't know if you buy these in the US but we have AA batteries rechargeable with USB port built-in the positive end
That gaming mouse is rebranded more than Amazon products. They sell it for basically 40$ at Dave and busters

Oh my lord, the way Austin leans in to shoot the bug assault hurts my eyes!!!
I always thought it was weird CVS has carpeted floors. It always feels unclean when I go to a CVS.
Hahaha love you guys!!! 🤣 and This Is love!
why did you say Duluth??? Duluth is a city; a decently large one
Was Matt shooting a lemon? I slowed the video down and still can't figure out what it was
👀

Mace isn't a product but a brand. People call pepper spray mace because it's the most popular brand of Mace available. The two became synonymous.
I live in Duluth, MN and I’ll have you know we have a Best Buy thank you very much!
Damn that cd player took me back. I remember the sony g-shock walkman cd player was the one to have.
I have the bug-a-salt and I must say, that was one of the best things to have in the pandemic, my house was a warzone against flies.
Mace isn’t a product it’s a brand. They just happened to be the main producer of pepper/teargas self defense spray.
