This conversation is about how the demands on data centers are changing and what that means for the systems that support them. As AI and high performance computing continue to scale, cooling is no longer a background function. It is central to whether these environments operate efficiently and reliably. Liquid cooling is becoming more common because it can handle the heat loads that air cooling cannot. But as systems move in that direction, the margin for error becomes much smaller. These are precision environments. Everything has to work as expected, and small issues can have larger consequences than people anticipate. Valves are a good example of something that is often overlooked but plays a critical role. They control flow, manage pressure, and help protect the integrity of the system. If they are not selected correctly, they can introduce problems that are difficult to detect early but show up later as inefficiencies or risk. One of the biggest points Eddie will make is that these systems depend on exact specifications. Engineers are not looking for something that is close. They need a valve that matches the system requirements exactly, whether that is flow performance, pressure characteristics, materials, connections, or physical dimensions. If something does not match, it can create integration issues, reduce efficiency, or delay the project. At the same time, the pace of data center construction is accelerating. Projects are moving quickly, and delays are not easily absorbed. That means availability and lead time are part of the technical decision, not just an operational detail. If the right solution is not available when it is needed, it creates risk for the entire build. This creates a real challenge for engineers, buyers, and OEMs. They need highly specific solutions, but they also need them delivered quickly and consistently. It is not enough to have a product that performs. The supplier has to be able to meet the spec, support the application, and deliver on time. Another important part of the conversation is how performance is evaluated. Published specifications do not always reflect real operating conditions. Systems do not run at a single point. They run across a range of flows and conditions. That is where the idea of usable Cv becomes important. It reflects how the valve actually performs in the system, not just how it performs in an ideal scenario. There is also growing awareness around hidden inefficiencies. Pressure drop, turbulence, and potential leak paths can all impact system performance. In high-density environments, these factors can reduce cooling effectiveness, increase energy usage, and introduce long-term reliability concerns. What this all points to is a shift in how components are selected. Valve selection is not a secondary decision. It is part of the overall system strategy. Getting it right helps protect uptime, maintain efficiency, and keep projects on track. Getting it wrong can introduce risks that are difficult and expensive to correct later. The goal of the conversation is to give people a clearer understanding of what matters most as they design and support modern cooling systems. It is about making better decisions upfront so systems perform the way they are intended to over time.

They further explore approaches to mitral and aortic valve repair, the management of diseased leaky valves, and the advantages of the Stanford modification of the David V procedure. Dr. Malaisrie concludes the discussion by offering advice to surgeons on refining their valve repair skills and shares his prediction for the future of valve repair surgery. Joel also highlights recent JANS articles on age vs lifetime perspective on the transcatheter vs surgical aortic valve implantation, gene-edited pig cardiac xenotransplantation as a bridge to allotransplantation in infants, long-term outcomes of postoperative atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery, and a case on ice water drowning survival after 147-minute submersion and 7 °C hypothermic circulatory arrest. In addition, Joel explores double annular enlargement as an effective technique to overcome patient-prosthesis mismatch, reoperation for aortic root reconstruction, and normothermic treatment of an aortic arch aneurysm. Before closing, Joel highlights upcoming events in CT surgery.

We talk more about the FIFA World Cup and the matches I attended in Atlanta. Jersey Jack Pinball has announced a new pinball machine based on Sonic The Hedgehog, and the headlines once again focus on the high price of owning pinball. Find a pinball arcade near you and request it so you can play it for just a dollar or two! The Steam Machine has launched with a price much higher than Valve initially intended due to the RAM and storage shortages. Valve has released a new version of SteamOS that can now run on any AMD desktop - for free. Grand Theft Auto VI will not release with a physical edition on consoles, and it came out later that it will NEVER launch with a physical edition. Then we talk to Jamie from OLR IIDX about Transformers Pinball and the 24th anniversary of Orange Lounge Radio.

Valve's Steam Machine reviews are in — and the verdict is brutal: by most measures it's slightly less powerful than a base PS5 while costing more than double. We break down the benchmarks, why Valve went semi-custom on the chips, and whether "access to the entire Steam library" is worth the price of admission. Before that, we go deep on Escape from Tarkov's first-ever season, Cord Breach — the new seasonal character system, the Path of Exile-style trait modifiers, the Kappa protocol, and whether this shakes up the Tarkov loop for good. Then it's War Dogs: the alpha impressions are rolling in, the hype is real, and the only "complaints" are people mad about camping in a large-scale warfare game. Plus: Sony is killing physical disc production for new PlayStation games in 2028 — do you even own your games anymore? And one last Call of Duty story from our CoD heritage: Warzone's cheater problem has never been worse, to the point streamers are teaming up mid-match just to survive. Jake sees the upside, Raz calls it like he sees it. 0:00 - Intro & Happy 4th of July 1:26 - This Week In Gaming (the rundown) 2:33 - Tarkov's First-Ever Season: Cord Breach 9:22 - Breaking Down The Seasonal Traits 21:28 - The Kappa Question & Big-Ticket Perks 26:46 - Neutral, Season-Wide Modifiers 29:44 - The Negative Traits 39:18 - Verdict: Is Cord Breach Worth It? 39:32 - Seasonal vs. Permanent Characters 47:03 - War Dogs Alpha: The Hype Builds 1:00:31 - Sony Kills The Disc (2028) 1:10:26 - Do You Even Own Your Games? 1:17:06 - Steam Machine: Impressive Hardware, Baffling Price 1:22:26 - Benchmarks: Weaker Than A PS5 For Double 1:33:24 - How Chips Are Made & The Silicon Lottery 1:34:16 - One Last CoD Story: Warzone's Cheater Hell 1:39:55 - Landing The Plane _Note: timestamps may be slightly misaligned on podcast apps (but not on YouTube) due to dynamic ads._ The podcast is available wherever you listen to podcasts, and ad-free & early access versions - as well as bonus episodes - are available to all of our Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/thedropshot) supporters.

Following hardware price hikes across Xbox and Valve's new Steam Machine, Sony Interactive executives have hinted that their upcoming console may depart from the industry's traditional "loss leader" strategy. In a recent Q&A, the company stated it does not intend to sell hardware at "significant losses," while also dropping major hints that its next system could feature portable capabilities similar to the Nintendo Switch. Meanwhile, we look at the legendary indie title The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, which just set a new record for concurrent users on Steam following a massive 90% discount in the platform's Summer Sale, marking a historic win for a critical darling that has famously been snubbed by major awards for over a decade.

Valve has been trying to crack the living room for more than a decade, and the new Steam Machine is its best attempt yet. It's a little bit PC, a little bit console, and a lot pricy — starting at $1,049, it had a lot to live up to. The Verge's Sean Hollister has been testing the device, and shares his findings on whether the Steam Machine can hang with PlayStation and Xbox. He also explains why, despite a never-ending list of challenges, Valve is still trying to make this device work.
