YouTube is a minefield of April Fools videos today… I also released a video today that some might think is a joke, but it’s actually a video I made to help me reassemble my PS2 by playing the disassembly backwards. Maybe it might help you, too. youtu.be/_g1oKG0T6hI

I wanted to build one DOS PC.
I ended up with a pile of 486-era parts, a lesson in 5V vs 3.3V CPUs, and a reminder of how fast everything changed in the 90s.
This one’s less about specs… and more about the feeling.

I’m postponing tonight’s stream because I need to take a few days off. Next stream will be Friday. (Unusual day for me, I know, but I also don’t usually work on game consoles.)

I’m having Internet trouble tonight, so I’m postponing tonight’s stream to Monday the 29th. (This means tonight’s postponement won’t affect next week’s schedule.)

@TeamYouTube is it possible to flag incorrect Content ID matches for review? For example, if I boot a PlayStation on stream, and it gets matched to a song that I did not play (but in which the artist sampled the same sound), how do I request a match correction?

After all, when washing machine jingles were incorrectly matched, you took action… and the artist in question did not create the PlayStation startup sound.

I have something that needs to be done tonight, so I need to postpone tonight’s stream to Thursday and Thursday’s stream to Monday of next week. (Next week will be Monday/Thursday.)
Also, streams the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s will be on Monday/Tuesday.

It’s… a Mac Classic. It was outdated when it launched and it’s not going to turn heads. But is it finished as a computer? Let’s recap the analog board and find out, live tonight starting at 8PM EST! youtube.com/live/swwctoG_3Es…

Sometimes you have to revisit former regrets… For tonight, we’ll be looking at some of my former repair successes that started as online purchase fails. And hopefully I’ll get a more than regrettable amount of bandwidth. Live tonight starting at 9PM EST! youtube.com/live/fQR7roqL7aw…

Younger me tried to win one of the model computer inside this Big Bad Box in a contest back in the day. Today me will see just how good - or bad - said prize would have held up over time. The unboxing will commence live tonight starting at 8PM EST! youtube.com/live/5Lljyo0AVQ8…

I fixed several bad traces on the Chips & Technology 286 motherboard. Did I fix them all? Does the motherboard even work? And will it throw a temper tantalum? Answers to all these important questions tonight, live starting at 9PM EST! youtube.com/live/8VeQHLmy7QU…

I am not feeling well tonight (something I’ve eaten is not agreeing with me). I’m postponing tonight’s stream to next week, instead of shifting streams, for reasons that will become apparent next week…

Let’s take a look at some former regrets, and see if I can’t finish them. Yes, this is the Mac Plus from Mercari and the 25MHz IIsi… Live tonight starting at 8PM EST! youtube.com/live/fQR7roqL7aw…

My Quadra 700CD needs more VRAM so I can enjoy 16 and 24-bit color at more resolutions. Instead of buying VRAM SIMMs, I’ve decided to build them. Time to make the VRAM, live tonight starting at 8PM EDT! youtube.com/live/BhMfXt_T_c4…

Hey @kofi_button I’m hanging trouble with stream alerts in OBS and YouTube chat. The test button works (and I see and hear my configured alerts), but when I receive a tip, there is no alert (neither audio, nor visual, nor in the chat). Any suggestions?

The IIsi is not a beginner-friendly computer. Maybe it was when it was new, but the tolls of time have caught up with the ones I own… IIsigh. Let’s continue trying to troubleshoot the Sad Mac (without lifting pads 🤞), live tonight starting at 9PM EDT! youtube.com/live/xykoKhJBmwM…
