Latency as Fast As Possible

Latency, the delay between an input and the corresponding output, can affect everything from gaming to driving your car. What causes it, what happens when latency is too high, and how do we fight it?

3 guys gaming on a mac? What reality was that photo taken?

[Raul]

The name of the video sounds weird.

Anybody else see what I'm trying to say?

[_RedEyeGaming_]

Why would they add Denis to the thumbnail and not have him in the video?

[sims.]

0:12 gaming on an Imac come on be real with the stock images

[cgme]

When I saw the title I giggled a little bit, because it says "Latency as fast as possible"... get it? Cause Latency is a delay... and because... you know what, never mind.

[WDCallahan]

A low latency explanation of latency. Very nice.

Fun fact: That delay in newscasts? More often a result of "Looklives" than actual satellite transmission on local stations.

A looklive is pretty simple, pre-record it and include a few seconds of nodding your head or gesturing in the video so they can break from live newscasts. (The dead giveaway is "Back to you" instead of "Back to you, <Anchor name>" But if it's a nightly newscast, they can even include the name since the anchor is the same.

Who else clicked immediately because of Dennis?

[jorty]

"BUT IT WAS A BOOM, HEADSHOT!" I love this editor

[itsdeonlol]

When is Dennis gonna do a Techquickie episode?

[SCRedstone]

I'm a simple man. I see Dennis in the thumbnail, I click.

TPCast wireless addon for the Vive adds less than 2ms latency (not possible to notice) due to the fact there is no processing (compression), all the data is transmitted raw.

i thought Dennis was hosting this one... I am disappointed

Audible is awesome.
I just wish that it could do more than just Audio books.
If you buy a book on audible you can ONLY use it as an Audio Book. Even if you wanted to, you can't read along with it.

I do have to say things are getting better. I drove a few cars with back up cameras years ago and noticed latency so when I bought a 15 impreza I thought it'd be the same(and that's fine, don't completely rely on just the camera) but it's actually got no noticeable latency. my dad's 15 Dart has a small noticeable latency but really good tbh and same with his truck. now if we could just get a switch to keep the camera on while driving, that would be great.

So glad I found this channel, you guys are so awesome

[jakehowell]

I was really hoping that Dennis did this video

[yurr]

Love that H3H3 reference at the end there Luke.

[TheTNTerminator]

Dennis needs to do a Techquickie video, it will be the best/worst thing ever.

[battlecattle]

Why is Luke in such soft focus, I thought I was on 480i until I saw the VR clip and stock photos
