Attack of the Drones - Duration: 29:17.

We often talk about artificial intelligence and robots on this channel, of the potential

impact of intelligent machines on our civilization, but it's possible that dumb machines, little

flying drones, might have an equally big impact, for good or ill.

So today's topic is all about drones and robots in future conflicts, be it up in space

or down here on Earth, in wide open areas or the tight turns and corners of a building

or space station.

This isn't such a futuristic concept anymore either.

The science fiction of the last century has been dominated by robots, be it humanoid androids

or inhuman machines, and yet drones are no longer even slightly science fiction.

So I thought we should discuss some of the challenges and possibilities ahead for us

with drones both in the short term, and for potential use far ahead in space, particularly

in warfare.

That's a good place to begin, as military applications are a big part of what got us

our modern drones.

This is often the case of course, swords turned into plowshares, and the reverse.

Science fiction also has tended to focus more on drones for military purposes too, rather

than one delivering your pizza, so we're already quite well versed in the problems.

Hollywood has burned the typical scene into our retinas, swarms of drones killing humans

left and right, and that these drones do so autonomously.

Your typical modern drone is remote controlled, but we want to minimize that, so that most

functions are automatic or simply require a quick command to do it themselves.

This is even more important in the future, since signal time is a major issue.

In the first place, a drone attacking an enemy spaceship might be many light seconds or even

hours away, and in the second, human reaction times are on an order of a second, while a

computer system might be in the nanoseconds.

There's simply not enough time for a remote human operator to react to changes in the

situation.

Drones fighting drones seems the most realistic scenario since drones versus humans will tend

to be very one-sided, even if they're remote controlled.

Even assuming it has no advantage on dodging shots and aiming on its own, it's much easier

to replace drones than people, so you can swarm over someone: quantity has a quality

all its own.

But they probably can dodge better and aim better, a remote controlled drone is weaker

than an automated drone if you have good enough computers, it can't be jammed and can react

at machine speeds instead of biological ones, which are further hampered by signal lag time.

This doesn't mean everything needs to be automated, but the more features you can automate,

the better.

One that can detect a bullet headed its way and see if it needs to dodge or will be missed,

then react in a precise fashion is not that complex to make, nor something that really

needs oversight, so you offload that control to the machine itself.

Picking targets and deciding the appropriate level of force during an escalating situation

is another matter, but also one largely irrelevant to drone on drone combat.

Collateral damage is always undesirable, but the reason why collateral damage is often

a euphemism for killing bystanders is because that's the only collateral damage that really

bothers us.

If it's just drones fighting drones though, they can't afford human reaction times since

everything is happening too fast.

They also can't afford to be big: bigger is slower to react in almost every way, even

mental.

Give a drone more brains for decision making and you are making it slower, it could lose

a fight with a cheaper and dumber drone, or a glorified smart bullet, simply because that

one does not carry the hardware and software to identify a human or pick shots to minimize

damage from ricochets or misses.

That smarter drone might only need a single microsecond more to decide, but it still gets

shot first, and even if it kills its attacker in the engagement, you're still out one

expensive drone while your enemy is out a cheap one.

In other words, it can be advantageous to be dumb.

It's an irony, because we call them drones as our earlier unmanned aerial vehicles flew

along dumbly on a preset path, so got likened to a male bee, a drone.

I'd imagine, since drones only have one purpose in life and die when successfully

achieving it, that it also fit a lot of early drone vehicle concepts that are basically

a guided bomb.

The swarm or hive notion is probably rather apt too, as when you have a swarm of drones

you probably want either a distributed consciousness or a more complex controller further back

that can make decisions.

You could potentially have a hive mind of drones that was fairly smart even though its

components were dumb, or whole tiers of controllers.

Imagine a human spaceship that was basically a carrier, it shoots out smaller ships with

solid AI on it that in turn have lots smaller ships on them with dumber AI, and potentially

so on until you've got a lowest tier that's nothing but a drive system and an antenna,

able to slam into things to destroy other drones or blocks shots.

You could have the flip side too.

Human ships have crewmembers, so a smart drone made vulnerable by time lag for decisions,

might have other AI inside designed for specific fast functions able to make those decision

autonomously, essentially reflexively.

Or an AI that had subconscious decision making.

That can be a strength and a weakness too, since even a fairly smart AI might reflexively

take an action, it ducks a bullet and slams into a building in the process, because its

reflexive systems kick in.

You could obviously program it not to do that, but every time you come up with another stupid

thing it shouldn't do, you're adding on layers of behavior it needs to verify before

acting.

This is your other trick too, you don't want people to be able to determine what those

flaws are, so you can introduce variations of actions or random decision making, but

you can also diversify it, having many species of drones, even under the same controller.

Some carrier full of drones might have a whole ecosystem of diverse drones of various sizes,

shapes, and functions rather than a single uniform type.

These biology analogies aren't accidental either, we've learned a lot about how to

improve drones by looking at nature and seeing how relatively stupid critters engage in fairly

intelligent group action.

As a good comparison, bird flocks are often entirely controlled by the lead birds, you

might use an analogous approach with robot drone swarms, and you might be able to knock

such a swarm off kilter by identifying the swarm leader and destroying it.

And you might be able to identify that leader simply by observing the time lag on each one

responding to things.

By default you put your leader in the middle, but that being rather obvious, you might stick

it on one edge, but if every drone on that side reacted just a bit quicker than the ones

on the other side, you'd notice that too.

Thinking about counter-measures are important because your enemy always will.

For instance, very few wars are fought in a vacuum; Scorched Earth and total annihilation

strategies are not favored because if you employ them you have to worry about consequences.

You can galvanize your enemy, or cause dissension on your own side by being too ruthless, and

you generally have to worry about bringing neutral parties in on their side.

Being too ruthless, beyond its ethical issues, can add to your enemies, and as we said back

in Interplanetary Warfare, the First Rule of Warfare is to avoid recruiting for your

enemy, or causing desertion in your own ranks.

So it probably behooves you to have drones smart enough to be able to minimize collateral

damage.

And of course the other handy thing about drones is they don't rebel.

Unless they do of course, which we covered in the episode "Machine Rebellion", and

the problem is, the smarter you make them, the more likely they might decide to do just

that.

However you have to have some way of controlling them, and presumably a way the enemy or general

public can't access.

This is problematic because it means only a small number of people should have those

codes and as few as possible to minimize risk of them being stolen.

But not too small, because that's how you get dictatorships.

In modern times, without drones, you actually have to convince at least your own soldiers

to help out.

It tends to be hard to be a ruthless dictator if you haven't got ruthless soldiers, and

the problem with people like that is they often have rather fluid notions about loyalty

and ethics.

We might say that drones do not, but your default drone has no ethics at all and is

loyal to whoever has their command codes.

One the plus side, that might make them much more reliable about obeying laws and treaties

on warfare, like the Geneva Conventions.

On the downside, anyone with access to their code can use them as mindless, obedient killing

machines.

You are vulnerable to some master programmer with a narcissistic- god-complex, unless you

make them smart enough to review ethics, which leaves you vulnerable to a SkyNet-style robot

rebellion.

These concerns support the idea that there might be treaties regulating drones, possibly

banning lethal decision making.

But treaties limiting the use of weapons are fairly iffy things.

Treaties can't just depend on outside enforcement or on honest compliance.

There has to be a clear benefit from the terms of the treaty or a consequence to quietly

breaking the rules.

It's easier to ban weapons that require hard-to-conceal supply and manufacturing chains.

You're also more likely to successfully ban weapons that militaries don't actually

like to have around because they're as dangerous to their own side.

As I've mentioned before, you want to avoid using weapons that are likely to kill their

user, that's the first rule of warfare.

Biological weapons are traditionally unpopular with leaders and military commanders compared

to atomic weapons for that reason.

Nukes go off where and when you want them to, someone can beat on one with a hammer

all day long and they won't set it off, at most they might breach the shielding and

irradiate themselves.

Biological weapons on the other hand are very dangerous to research, develop, manufacture,

and store.

Any flaw may kill your own people, and once deployed, they are totally out of your hands.

Even if you have an antidote or vaccine, which is very dubious since viruses and bacteria

mutate, you know there is a high probability your enemy has it too, or will get it.

Such things take weeks to do their damage after all.

That's not much time to develop a cure, but plenty to get it from someone else who

already has one.

If someone infects your country you've got options on the table, spies to find the vaccine,

which ought to be easy since they'd need to have stockpiles of it ready to go, neutral

countries who might have developed it already or gotten it as a cost of neutrality, threats

by you to attack with your own strategic weapons, and probably a lot of angry people in other

lands or even the enemy's who might help or threaten vengeance.

In any protracted war, collateral damage can play into the hands of the enemy.

A very similar concept applies to weaponizing artificial intelligence, we tend to worry

about an arms race making people pursue it so fast and recklessly the genie might get

out the bottle and kill everyone, but the problem is, AI is also not a good strategic

weapon.

There is no reason to give it launch control over your strategic weapons and no matter

how many times fiction says otherwise, you can make a system unhackable even to a super-intelligent

AI, an ASI.

There are ways an ASI could get around some of those, it can't crack the safe in the

wall where the keys to a nuke are stored if it's not networked, but it could maybe crack

comms to trick the crew manning that silo or submarine.

None of which applies to drones.

If a country develops drones that violate a treaty, they can't deploy them and end

the war too quickly for retaliation to get organized, because drones aren't immune

to nuclear weapons.

So they may just be considered a form of WMD, or weapon of mass destruction, and fall under

the doctrine of MAD, or mutual assured destruction.

Additionally, a country that successfully makes a superior drone by reckless research

in violation of a treaty has to worry about that AI going off their rails if they screw

up, and they have to worry about being nuked if they succeed, and the entire time they

have to worry about one of the researchers or officials being a spy or having a conscience

and ratting them out.

You've also got deployment issues, because a drone obviously is subject to jamming and

hacking.

If you make it something that just turns on and acts autonomously afterward, to circumvent

jamming, then it needs to be smart or it's too simple to trick.

If you want central control, you're vulnerable to centralized hacking, and it's never harder

to hack that system than to find out who has the codes and stick a gun to their family's

head, which is not helped if those operatives can remind the programmer that his country

is violating treaties by making automated murder machines.

If you want local control, you've got a local operator who can be found by their signal

and bagged, and they are numerous, meaning you've been training them and your enemies

will know that.

So I don't want to dismiss a drone race, in fact I'd rather expect we'll have one

and arguably already do, but it doesn't seem likely to follow a doomsday approach.

Amusingly one way it could is if well-intentioned folks tried to put too many safeguards into

them.

If you're a regular on this channel than you're probably familiar with Isaac Asimov's

3 Laws of Robotics, the first of which is that a robot cannot harm a human or let them

come to harm.

That would tend to seem a rather stupid rule to use with automated weapons, but works fine

for drone on drone combat.

Moreover though, it would seem to just make sense to give drones ways to recognize people,

and a restriction on taking actions that would injure anyone other than its authorized target.

This is problematic, and we'll use the classic first law as an example.

An unmanned spaceship, a drone warship, can fire on other such warships but not a manned

vessel.

Obviously it would be pretty easy to stick a single human on each such ship so it couldn't

shoot those, though one of the big advantages of unmanned ships in space is they can pull

high-gee maneuvers that would turn a human into a puddle of goo.

But if your enemy can't shoot you, maneuverability is no big deal.

And for that matter your unmanned vessel can't actually be sure that an enemy ship is unmanned

just because it does such a maneuver, same as you can lie to it by claiming there's

a human on board when it's just bouncing a signal, you can lie to it and say you've

invented a cool new way to let humans survive high-gee maneuvers.

For that matter, it might assume the ship was manned because you can upload a human

mind to it digitally, one can assume drones and AI would generally tend to favor schools

of thought that viewed uploaded intelligences as real people.

Any system you set in place to help identify people is going to need to be refined in order

to avoid being tricked or making mistakes, and eventually need to have judgment capability,

which leaves it open to being tricked by anything smarter than it.

If you make it smarter than people though, then we're not really talking about drones

anymore, just the classic AI issue.

So, ironically, an effort to make them ultra-safe and foolproof might actually be more dangerous

than a race to make more dangerous drones.

We should also note that drones aren't all that dangerous at the moment, it's an important

topic to discuss for the future because this is something we should expect a lot of.

I can't think of any non-slippery-slope argument for their use that isn't a variation

of normal artificial intelligence concerns, and the need for size, speed, and expendability

make them a less probable pathway to something like a technological singularity.

These don't turn into Skynet, Skynet hacks them to use against you, and there are many

safeguards available against that.

They also have their limitations.

The first is power.

One of the big advantages of drones is that they can be made quite small, but small is

often not your friend for certain aspects of combat or engines.

A big tank as a drone can be a lot nastier than a modern manned tank, and carry significant

amounts of computing hardware on it.

It can also carry a lot of armor.

A small drone can't, as we've discussed before for space ships, the square cube law

makes armor more effective the bigger you get, because the surface area you need to

armor only rises by the square of size, while the volume rises by the cube.

A small drone just can't have 10 centimeters of armor on it and fly around.

Now, as an upside, it can dodge attacks much easier and it can hit that tank quite easily,

but that tank can also carry a number of even smaller anti-drone drones of its own, who

can both attack the small enemy drone and potentially intercept any ordinance it might

shoot at the tank.

It can also carry a serious internal combustion engine, those are hard to miniaturize and

the reason why you don't see them much on small objects.

Drones meant for constant use could probably get away with using Radioisotope Thermal Generators

or other atomic power sources, but it's hard to imagine many people being okay with

atomic drones.

Even that's not viable for the tiniest of drones, and we'd like tiny drones for non-military

purposes, like medical nanotechnology.

You could, however, beam them power.

We discussed that a month back in Power Satellites and it makes a very attractive option since

you can strip off any engine or battery supply, maybe just keeping enough for a minute of

operation without power.

This is very handy for commercial use, like deliveries, but problematic for military use.

This is the same issue we had with power armor when we discussed that, but still better to

have a smaller battery for backup if someone blocks your power beam than one for constant

use.

Particularly nowadays, batteries are very heavy as an energy source, and ones meant

for spacecraft needing to do high-gee maneuvers would be crippling.

However, if they can get their juice beamed to them from a bigger carrier ship a ways

back, it makes them much more useful.

That is one note on the idea that manned space fighters are an impossibility and you'd

always use drones.

This is true enough but some of the logic is flawed.

Drones are seen as nicer because in space, your only protection from energy weapons like

a laser is being small and fast enough that you can be in an unpredictable place by random

thrust.

The problem is, you must be doing that constantly, you're not dodging shots, you're preemptively

dodging so someone misses if they shoot you.

A typical rocket fuel, if you're mostly fuel and mostly using that fuel for dodging,

would let you do that for a few minutes at one-gee, that's what Specific Impulse of

a rocket is, how many seconds it can provide a one-gee thrust.

Some little drone's advantage is that it can handle a much higher acceleration, and

is assumed to be a bit smaller, so it doesn't need to move as much to be an improbable target

against a narrow attack like a bullet or focused beam.

You and I don't avoid getting shot by stepping two centimeters left, the bullet just hits

a different part of us, a tiny drone does get missed.

You also get more distance on a dodge by burning fast and short.

A drone that burns at 1000 gees for a millisecond covers 9.8 meters in the following second,

while one burning just 1-gee for a second burns the same fuel but only moves 4.9 meters.

If that's effectively a random burn perpendicular to whatever is shooting you, you can be in

an area 4 times larger, and thus 25% as likely to be hit by burning the same fuel.

But neither can sustain such dodging for long and the advantage is fairly minimal.

Ditto, size isn't that big of an advantage either, being small makes it easier to dodge,

but it also means you have less armor and they can just hit you with a wider and weaker

beam.

However, that advantage is massively scaled up if you have a beam of a power coming to

you, and you can arrange a pseudo-random walk that ensures your movements are unpredictable

to someone shooting at you but not whoever is powering you.

That doesn't have to be set either, there's lots of ways to appear random while still

letting your power source know where you will be long enough ahead for it to re-target power

there.

Not just power either, you could send particle beams for propellant or even reloads for weapons

or repair.

It's also a good way to feed self-replicators.

One of the more dangerous smart drone paths is basically a weaponized von Neumann Probe.

In those your space probe arrives and build more of itself to get exploring or colonizing

done.

In the weaponized version it comes in as a tiny probe and decelerates before entering

your detection window.

There is no stealth in space but it's all relative.

It would be fairly easy to miss some probe that was basketball-sized and decelerated

slowly when it got to your Oort Cloud, especially if it was timed to intersect a larger object

between it and your detectors.

It lands there and gets power beamed in from home, a tight narrow beam that the object

blocks, and uses that energy to replicate itself into an armada.

That's still detectable, there's a lot of heat involved in that, but it's stealthier

than sending in an Armada.

Of course you also have your defense right there too, since you could use the same approach

to seed every large object in your outer solar system with drones that just sleep until they

detect an intruder then build up their numbers to respond.

You could have some wild battles in your outer solar system with no one present as constructor

fleets, or deconstructor fleets, tear up objects to build more of themselves and fight.

And by no one present, I'm not necessarily excluding AI from counting as someone.

This doesn't have to be really high-tech smart machines or little nanobots.

Clanking Self-Replicators, machines that can build other machines, don't have to be small

or smart and would probably be the first kind we make.

Very little brains are needed for a factory robot to grab a metallic meteor, refine it,

and spit out some simple drone that targets anything moving non-naturally and not transmitting

the right friend/foe code.

One should never underestimate the advantage intelligence can give you in a conflict, but

also not forget that a dumb drone can be very lethal and as we said earlier, can potentially

kill a smarter drone in a straight up fight.

More brains only help if it lets you have more options or reach a conclusion faster.

And quantity has a quality of its own, that's the first rule of warfare.

As I mentioned near the beginning, drones are anything but science fiction, and are

increasingly used for work and recreation.

Lots of folks own one these days and use them, particularly for photography.

My friend Andy, whose Youtube channel recently hit 100,000 subscribers, and congratulations

Andy, does some amazing photography and filming with drones and we use some of that here on

the channel.

Needless to say there's a lot of skill involved and potentially a lot of employment in this

area, not to mention fun.

But it's not something most colleges are offering courses on yet.

That's true of a lot of technical skills, but fortunately we have options for learning

them like Skillshare.

They have a number of online courses on how to use drones for photography and other things,

among their catalogue of over 20,000 classes.

They are an online community with courses on everything from technical topics to fun

or practical ones like cooking or business skills.

So if you want to improve your skills, unlock new opportunities, and do the work you love,

you can get a Premium Membership and have unlimited access to classes on those topics

and many more.

Before we get to what's coming up in future episodes, a quick mention of some stuff we've

previously done.

I occasionally get asked if I could make the episodes available as audio-only and we do

actually have all the episodes posted to Soundcloud, both with and without music in the background,

for free download.

I don't mention it very often so it goes unnoticed, but those are always linked in

the video description and you can subscribe to them on iTunes as well.

There are a few additional short episodes exclusively available as audio-only too.

We've also got some videos that aren't on this channel, discussing topics like fictional

worldbuilding or game development, over on the Legion Tech Studios channel, I'm a writer

and consultant for their upcoming game Hades 9, and we use a lot of footage from the game

on the channel, especially on space warfare episodes.

I'll leave a link to that in the video description, as well as one to our official episode chronology,

which in addition to having a list of all the scheduled episodes for the next few months,

also has links to all the interviews, collaborations, and so on that we've made over the years.

Okay, we spent some time out in space today and we'll be back there next week to continue

the Outward Bound Series with a look at Colonizing Neptune and see some fun new colonizing options

for Neptune and other Ice Giant planets.

We were also talking about how people can control drones today, and two weeks from now

we'll be looking at some ways we might turn people into drones, and how we might be able

to safeguard against that, in a look at Brainwashing & Mind Control.

The week after that we'll be coming home to Earth for the first in several episodes

looking at some ways to further colonize our own planet, and we'll begin with a look

at Seasteading & Building Artificial Islands, as a prelude to looking at Colonizing the

Oceans.

Toys in School! Pretend Play DIY Slime, Squishy School Supplies Pranks. - Duration: 17:43.

Bringing toys to school sure sounds like a ton of fun.

But if you make these epic toy school supplies make sure to only use them during breaks.

They will bring a lot of joy to you and your classmates for sure!

First candy, then makeup and now this?!

Both of you the principal now!

You as well!

Who doesn't love squishies?! I adore them!

They are so satisfying!

But you know what I love even more?! Squishy pens!

They are so easy to make and super affordable.

Take an inexpensive pen of your choice.

Any pen or pencil will work great.

Open up your pen and take out the ink tube.

Time to grab your favorite squishy.

I love this cute ice cream one!

It also has the perfect shape, so let's transform it into a pen.

All we have to do is push the ink tube inside the squishy.

Don't push it in all the way though, we need to leave the tip outside.

Here we go, the easiest and definitely the coolest DIY pen ever!

It's so squishy, satisfying and works amazing.

And on top of this it looks like a kawaii ice cream!

I mean it really can't get better than that!

When we have high tide the sea level goes up.

When we have low tide the sea level goes where?

It goes down.

Sara!

Oh this?

This is a pen.

See!?

This awesome slime pouch will keep your slime clean and protected!

And since it looks like a pencil case, your teacher will have no idea what you're hiding in there.

Take a zip lock bag.

I'm going to tape the bottom part up to give it more a pencil case shape.

Next grab some washi tape or duct tape.

I am using these washi tape sheets but any kind will work great.

Stick as many pieces of washi or duct tape as needed to cover it completely.

Then turn your masterpiece around and glue the washi tape or washi sheets on that side too.

This looks like a usual pencil case, but we're going to use it as a slime pouch!

I have this beautiful rainbow slime, that is so stretchy and satisfying, I love it!

If you put your slime in the normal pencil pouch, the slime will get all dusty and dirty

from the fabric.

Our pouch on the other hand, is air tight and has a plastic lining which will keep our

slime clean and fresh!

Who would have thought that school could be so exciting!

When I'm bored I like to grab an activity book.

They're so therapeutic and fun!

Also, sneaking them in class is a piece of cake!

Come on, I'll show you!

Take a notebook that is of similar size as your activity book, and open it up in he middle.

Stick a few pieces of double sided tape on the right and on the left page.

Grab the activity book of your choice – this one has so many fun things inside and I love

how colorful it is.

Stick it inside the notebook and we are all done!

How flipping amazing is this notebook that has a built in activity book.

I Love it!

Say goodbye to the boring hours in school!

Chemistry is the branch of science that studies the properties of matter and how matter interacts

with energy.

Chemistry is considered a physical science and is closely related to physics.

Instead of activity book you can sneak in a coloring book, a crosswords book or even

a favorite magazine.

I love taking these things to the beach when I'm on vacation.

So with this hack you can bring some of that summer holiday feeling to school as well!

Very sneaky and super entertaining!

These little squishies are so adorable!

I could play with them for hours.

Yup, I think is only fair that we sneak all of them to class.

Grab your first mini squishy and a super glue.

Apply a drop of glue on the bottom side of your little friend.

Take a small magnet like this one and place it on top of that glue.

Wait for a few moments for the glue to harden and pop the squishy on the tin pencil case.

Do this with all the other members of this epic squad.

The magnets stick firmly to the tin pencil case so to your teacher and schoolmates this

will look like a normal animal pencil case.

But you can actually detach your squishies off the case and play with them separately if you want.

Then you can place them back on and they will hold to the case firmly again.

How smart.

When you get a bit bored during classes simply reach for your squishy friends and time will fly.

They are just the cutest little bunch ever!

Tic Tac Toe has always been one of my favorite games to play with my classmates.

But instead of playing it the usual way I decided to upgrade and make the game a lot

more convenient and sneaky.

Take a plain solid colored notebook.

From a piece of paper cut out a big hashtag sign like this and stick it to the notebook.

Below stick any other word in smaller size – like love for example.

Can you see the trick already?

All we need are some paper clips in two different colors and we are ready to play the Tic Tac

Toe game an infinite amount of time without leaving any traces at all!

Because to the teacher this notebook will look like the usual one with a #LOVE design,

which by the way I love so much!

And paper clips are a normal school necessity so you can have them on your desk without being worried.

I think this idea is so smart and will bring a ton of fun to you and your schoolmates while

sitting in class.

Are you a fan of shopkins?

I must admit they are truly adorable!

I decided to turn this Shopkins surprise jar into a pencil sharpener and smuggle those

cute buddies to class.

Take the shopkins out of the jar.

I got a broccoli, a toast and icing sugar!

Take the paper wrapping off the jar and save that plus the lid for later.

Now take a pencil sharpener and a pencil and let's produce some of that pretty sharpening residue.

Use different colored pencils to make it even more interesting and fun.

Take a picture of that residue and print it out.

Roll it in a cylinder shape like this and place inside the shopkins jar.

Next, fill the jar with a bunch of your favorite shopkins characters.

I'm taking my entire squad with me to school, so in the jar they go!

Lastly, glue a simple sharpener on the jar and we're all set!

Ta daaa this appears like a normal pencil sharpener, full of colorful sharpening residue,

but our Shopkins squad is hiding inside instead.

And the best part is that your sharpener is still completely functional!

If you love collecting and playing with these cuties, I am sure they will bring you a ton

of joy during classes.

I don't care if fidget spinner aren't as trendy right now as they were last year, because I

still find them extremely entertaining.

Check out this epic idea to sneak it in class.

Grab any kind of notebook.

Now print a picture of a windmill like this one and stick it on the notebook cover with

a bit of double sided tape.

Right here, where we have the spinning part, we're going to stick our fidget spinner.

So apply some hot glue to the center of your fidget spinner and glue it to the notebook.

How clever right?!

The fidget spinner somehow connects with the notebook background and together they

look like a normal notebook, not at all like toy.

So the teacher won't have anything against it for sure.

Meanwhile, you can play with your spinner, which is also a perfect stress reliever if

you are feeling a bit tense.

What a cool DIY notebook idea!

I've always found soap bubbles so entertaining and fun!

Something about them just makes me so happy and I could watch them float around in the

air all day!

There's definitely something magical about them!

But did you know that you can make real and epic soap bubbles with a normal marker?

Yes and I'll show you how!

Open up a marker, and remove the tip.

Now grab a knife and very carefully cut off that narrow plastic bit at the tip.

Next take a pair of tweezers and pull out the ink tube out of the marker housing.

Leave this aside for now and get a piece of wire ready.

Wrap the wire around any rounded object to get a loop.

Twist the ends around each other and as you can see we got the same shape as with

store bought soap bubbles.

A perfect bubble making machine.

Take some super glue and apply it on the tip like this.

Simply glue it to the inside of the marker lid and we are all set to make some bubbles.

Well, almost!

We still need to prepare the soap and water mixture.

Open up a bottle of soap and squeeze some into the marker housing.

That's enough, now all that's missing is a splash of water and we're ready to make loads

of beautiful and magical bubbles.

I think this idea is straight up epic!

Making soap bubbles with a marker, I mean it doesn't get more insane than that!

And the truth is it works so well!

Look how many bubbles it makes in one go.

I almost can't believe my eyes!

I think we all agree that this cool invention calls for a little prank on the teacher.

Lighting happens when ice and water particles bump into each other inside the thunder clouds.

Who did this?!

Who did this?!

LUDO is a good old favorite board game for so many of us and sneaking it in class is

easier than you think.

Grab a larger notebook and open up a front cover.

Print a LUDO template from the internet and stick it to the notebook with some double

sided tape.

Take sixteen paper clips in four different colors.

Lastly we need a dice and I was lucky enough to find an eraser in a form of a dice in a store.

You can also DIY it yourself – all you need is a dice shaped eraser and you can draw

the dots yourself.

Anyway, as I told ya - sneaking a LUDO board game in class is literally a piece of cake!

In a similar way you can sneak many other board games to school as well.

You and your desk neighbor will have so much fun.

Just be careful so the teacher doesn't see you!

School can be extra stressful sometimes, so having a stress ball on hand can be very useful.

Take a plastic balloon holder like this one.

Now grab a stress ball.

Mine has this little handle, which is perfect to wrap around the balloon holder.

Otherwise you can just glue it on.

Take a glue gun and apply some hot glue on the plastic end.

Now choose any pencil you like and stick it to the stress ball.

Voila! Our stress ball pencil is all done – it looks phenomenal and feels very satisfying.

I love this idea with the balloon holder, because if you want you can still take the

stress ball off your pencil and it is completely intact.

This little guy is so squishy and fun to play with.

It will definitely take care of all the stressful or just a bit boring hours in school!

Yes I made another one because I'm that obsessed and want to make even more because these DIY

stress ball pencils are simply adorable!

If you're a fan of plushy animals this DIY hack is perfect for you!

Take your favorite mini plush friend and attach it to the zipper of your pencil case or school bag.

Now your beloved toy can go with you to school every day.

And no one will ever think that this is weird, neither will teacher give you detention for this.

You and your cute little friend are perfectly safe!

Should we sneak more slime to class?

I think we should, because there's no such thing as too much slime!

These glitter glue bottles will work perfectly but instead of glue, we'll carry glitter slime inside.

Wash your glue bottle thoroughly, if you want

you can even remove the sticker as I did and set it aside.

Grab some green slime and let's make it all glittery so it will look exactly as our glitter glue.

Pour lots of that sparkly magic on the slime.

How gorgeous is this!

Remember how I used to be obsessed with glitter and mixed it in absolutely everything?

I miss those times!

I tried mixing the glitter in the slime with a stick but it wasn't that easy.

So let's roll up the sleeves and get our hands in there.

Play with it for a few moments and the glitter will incorporate all around the slime evenly.

Alright our glittery slime looks exactly like the glitter glue so it's time to put it in the bottle.

The easiest way is to go bit by bit and throw pieces of this sparkly slime inside the glue bottle.

Screw the lid on and look at that!

They look identical so we are completely safe and can sneak our slime in class!

Do you guys know that this is the first time me properly playing with slime?!

I know where have I been!

This is so satisfying!

You can make glitter slime in all the possible colors and they look so pretty.

I want to try mixing in a ton of colorful glitter one day, I bet it would look epic!

What is Katie hiding inside her pencil sharpener?!

Wow what a cool slimy hand!

Fun fact, there was a time in our primary school, when these slimy hands

were so extremely popular!

We used to get them as a gift in a bag of chips and literally everyone in school had them.

I'm not surprised they are really fun to play with!

And a pencil sharpener is a perfect tool to help us smuggle this awesome toy to school.

These slimy hands are sticky and very stretchy!

They will stick to any kind of surface like windows, tables and so on.

You can kiss boring school hours goodbye because these sticky toys will provide an infinite

amount of fun during school classes for sure!

Just make sure they don't go out of your control!

Literature, most generically, is any kind of written works.

Literature writing is considered...

Uh-oh.

Candy, makeup, toys – what else could we sneak in class?

Comment bellow!

No seriously, school is very important guys so stay focused and listen to your teacher.

I wish you all an amazing school year.

Mwah! Love you bye!

Kevin Hester & Rob Seimetz: Conversations At The End Of Time - Duration: 9:19.

ROB SEIMETZ: And I think I think now more and more

people are waking up to the fact that

the world is falling apart and I see it

even within the community that knows how

dire the situation is one thing I'd ask

both of you is don't you feel like now

these past couple months seem it seems

like it's been more desperate than it

ever has before and it's really gone

exponential compared so where people's

mindset was maybe three or four months

ago

KEVIN HESTER: There is a quote from Albert

Bartlett one of the greatest

shortcomings of the human race is its

inability to understand the exponential

function I think we're all packed

bearing witness to nonlinear change

every day you wake up and something

radically new has transpired that's how

quickly it will unravel if we wake up

tomorrow morning and twenty five

thousand people have died in Karachi or

in Tehran from a heat wave people will

realize that that's gonna get better

it's gonna get worse quicker

everywhere it will be very very easy for

the whole society to collapse

you know the whole banking system is a

Ponzi scheme that's based on 30-year

government bonds if you can't sell

30-year government bonds because you

haven't got 30 years that's a big that's

a big cornerstone of the economic system

removed things can unravel and will

unravel very quickly in my opinion

LBW: Yeah I think it's hard to sort of

conceptualize it I I once had a dream

and that really shaped really influenced

me when I had it but it was a dream

where I realized in it that that an

asteroid is about to hit the planet and

we all knew it there was just announced

on you know the media the the television

or wherever I heard it in the dream the

mission to save the Earth from an

asteroid failed we have three days left

and so the rest of the dream was me

thinking and contemplating and

recognizing that not only was you know

what was I gonna die

but everybody in my life that I knew

that was gonna die and that everything

that human civilization everything that

human beings have ever created and all

the life on this planet would disappear

as a result of this asteroid impact and

I had this just dream where I delved

into the emotions of that feeling and

towards the end of the dream I

experienced the impact and you know it

was a very strange dream because at the

very end I continued dreaming after I

died which was really surreal but the

point of it is that I I think when you

start to contemplate and I've been

contemplating this the scenario we're

discussing this predicament where we

are in for years and when you had time

to if you've been lucky enough I would

say that if we've had enough time to

contemplate it what I'm worried about

are the people that don't know jack-shit

about any of these things that either

one if they know anything about it they

may be in denial or they may be what

they call themselves as skeptics or

or what we call them as denialists

and I know people like that in my life

but as these things happen and as it

really hits the fan how are those people

going to react and what duty do we have

as people who know about this subject to

you know tell them and to try to bring

up the subject when they don't want to

hear it and I think that as again as

things get weirder as things get more

dire I'm worried about the people around

me that don't know anything about it or

don't want to know anything about it

ROB SEIMETZ: I think you have to accept I think one

thing that's hard is we have to accept

that one of the flaws in the human

species is and and what's kind of

brought us to the situation that we are

in today is part of the reason is we are

so welded to systems ideologies and

institutions that have been going on for

generations well before any of us were

born and when we hear that some of these

systems these institutions have flaws

and there's some horrors that involve

these institutions and systems we get in

denial because we're so comfortable with

it we're so we so weld ourselves to it

that we try to

justify it and I see it a small example

would be you know these these priests in

Pennsylvania that molested a thousand

children and that has been going on

since the 1940s they were raping them

and sexually abusing these children

making them say confessions while they

were doing it and if if I were

to tell you there is there's an

institution out there that has a history

of child rape and abuse that promotes

patriarchy and white supremacy a lot of

people would say let's get rid of that

that institution right now we got

to take it down and then if I said well

what if I were to tell you that's the

Catholic Church a lot of people would be

in denial and try and and and rush that

away and that's what a lot of humans a

lot of us that's what we do as humans

and we and this is just a larger scale

of it and that's why it makes it such a

difficult conversation to have sometimes

and and also I think you have to know

when to walk away from that conversation

say look I did what I could I I told

this person I care about them deeply and

I told them but they're just they're not

they're not gonna you know engage in

this and you gotta you just gotta walk

away from it

LBW: Yeah I guess it's not our responsibility to convert people

like we're some kind of weird religious

doom cult trying to convince people that we are all

fucked you know that's not our

responsibility and that's not what we

should be trying to portray I think in

our in our work or activism or

conversations or whatever you know I

think that I know that I know like for

instance Guy McPherson has been accused

of running some kind of doom cult you

know and I think that when we start

talking about the subject of people they

they may assume the worst of us by even

bringing up the subject it's a weird

balance to play I guess you just have to

try to do it with those that you love

right those that you trust that trust

you and speak honestly and frankly with

them as you would with anybody you loved

and we're friends with

ROB SEIMETZ: And you got to be delicate

about it too I think and you know one

thing that I've said on my radio show

that I would say here is that I just my

goal is you know I look at someone's

ideology as a recipe right and I just

want to get into that person's recipe

whether it's a teaspoon or whether it's

a full cup I don't care I want in there

and if I can just convince somebody one

little thing is bullshit then maybe I

can lead them to the greater thinkers

like that's the way I try to look at it

like I'm trying to be a front person so

that way I can lead them to Kevin Hester

I can lead them to Guy McPherson

Derrick Jensen some of the other people

that I admire and really look at Dahr

Jamail I mean that's what we can try to

do and know your opportunity when you

see it and be delicate about it that

would be my advice I mean one thing I've

said to people if someone will say you

know they'll bring up climate change and

yeah you know it's really getting warmer

and I'll say to them this and this seems

to engage people I say and a lot of

people think we're already past the

tipping point that we crossed the point

of no return and then it's oh really

well then they want to know more you

know you can't just say we're gonna

you know we're gonna go extinct in five

years like after that people look at you

and be like well what the hell are you

you're crazy you've gotta lead them into

where things are going step by step and

and piecemeal it

ROB SEIMETZ: Yeah that's a good that's good I agree

with you definitely

KEVIN HESTER: My role in doing that is coming to an end one of the

reasons why I wanted to have this

conversation is because we were gonna

talk about having children and this time

because I think it's if no one's

prepared to kick off that conversation

we should at least do that but I'm

really coming at the end of my run

about doing this sort of work

because the evidence is clear it's

staring us in the face

anyone who's paying attention and can't

see it is for some reason and denial and

I'm not interested in arguing with people

I'm not interested in any of that

negativity I'm prepared to just lay out my position that's what I think

like it or lump I'm not forcing it down anyone's throat

Playable Ads are Literally a Game Changer! - Duration: 1:53.

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen to another episode of ASKyH, and this is

the Guy Bauer Power Hour, and I'm your host - Guy Bauer.

This is where you ask and we answer it.

This episode, we're answering your

questions about playable ads. Why? Because I said so. Let's get into it!

We've all seen ads for games pop up on our Facebook newsfeed or

watched the game being played, but we haven't actually had the control

to play the games ourselves. After some beta testing, Facebook is changing the game

once again with its announcement of its new playable ads.

When these new ads appear on the user's screen, the user will

finally have the opportunity to interact and test the game out themselves.

We at yellowHEAD have been running playable ads for quite a while

and here's what we know so far. A user will see an ad on

the newsfeed, click on it and will be redirected to a playable ad.

The playable ad is an html5 based ad unit, basically an interactive video that allows the

user to play a small demo of the game even before landing on the store page.

So how does another stage in the user's funnel help us? We allow the users to

engage with a mock interface of the game even before downloading it.

This makes the users who eventually install the most engaged users who

really love the game. The main goal here is to drive more quality users: engaged,

intent-based users who have already gotten a glimpse at the game and are eager to play it.

From our experience and what we've seen so far, these users deposit

more and drive higher return on ad spend or, as we call it in the biz, ROAS

starting day 0 and until day 30, resulting in twice the ROAS working with playable ads!

Want to find out more? Then feel free to shoot us your questions in the

comments section below, or check out our blogs in the link over here. Don't forget

to Like and subscribe to our channel for new content. Thanks for tuning in and

we'll see you next time on ASKyYH!
