The 8bit guy gag in the recent LGR Computer Reset video was pretty funny. I’ll take back one or two things I said about the guy.

Oh no, he’s still a dingus with questionable views but a dingus that is self aware enough to know he is a dingus is a slight improvement vs one that isn’t. I said “one or two” not “fully vindicated”.

I thought 8BitGuy was kind of a dork, then I saw the open carry at Home Depot video and thought less of him. Then I saw a video where he articulated that he doesn’t give a poo poo about other people he doesn’t know dying to gun violence, and thought even less of him.

I like guns just fine but I loving hate gun nuts. You’re not the hero of an action movie and guns aren’t a replacement for a personality you douchebag.

If you haven't seen LGR's new Computer Reset video, there's a joke in there where the 8bitguy does a joke very much at his expense, which is far more self-aware than I ever expected he would be.

I’ve been slowly chipping away at the video. Nothing wrong with it but it’s not holding my attention for more than 5 minutes at a time. I want to see if 8BG is actually being self aware or just trying to roll with the punches.

I did go and immediately kickstart that device Clint made a video about this morning. I’ve been wanting something like that forever.

I will clear a space on a brain shelf and place this there, where it will remain and being me joy for many, many years.

That LGR vid was kinda lame otherwise. Good on those people and amazing how much time and effort they’ve sunk, but there was really nothing but trash left.

I’m glad he enjoyed himself but the video wasn’t super interesting to me because it was clear the warehouse had been emptied of everything besides pallets of productivity software and broken CRTs

for reasons I can't understand, I took my dad's old smoke-stained G4 Mac Mini without a working optical drive from 2005, dropped a 64GB SSD and 1GB of RAM in it and installed Leopard. WHAT NOW I ask you.

I use one to this day in my pickup. I also keep the glovebox full of tapes.

The truck originally had only an AM/FM radio but I found a cassette version for $5 at a thrift store.

I liked watching it and thinking about the dozens of new YouTube channels springing up to show off the literal tons of equipment some people picked up from there over the past couple of years

I also could not help but think he was missing a real opportunity not to volunteer to dig into one of those mentioned still unsorted piles. Or maybe he did and it was boring and he just moved on

Regardless that video ALSO did a great job helping remind me that I want to sell off almost all of my retro computer stuff lest I too end up with an overflowing warehouse someday

at first I was like "those can't boot OS 9!" and then I looked it up to find that there are now modified ISOs that let you boot OS 9 on all kinds of unsupported macs, including the Mac Mini.

Now I know what I'm doing this weekend.

I used a cassette adapter until 2016 or so when the tape deck in my car broke and I had a new stereo head out in. Then I got a new car in ‘19 and Toyota was on the verge of putting Android Auto in cars, but never went back and did my model year. Which made me switch to iPhone last year to get back the level of functionality I had with my aftermarket stereo head in a 2003 car.

Those don’t always work with full hardware support. Troubleshooting driver issues on a platform that just isn’t meant to have driver issues is fun.

The paperclip wasn't the only gag in that Computer Reset video. At the part where he's showing the box of random cards and saying that chances are they won't be worth anything to anyone, take a close look at what he's holding.
