Nostalgia Nerd has gone off a cliff for me. He did that video complaining about the algorithm and then continued to push out stuff with clickbait titles and now he's shilling crypto. He was already taking the piss with titling videos "GBR Thrifts" piggybacking offve LGR's thrifting episodes (and we don't even call it loving thrifting here anyway). I've given up clicking on his stuff now.

I stopped watching as well, but the last two videos on Rise of the Robots and now Bandersnatch have been particularly well-researched and interesting. He’s still got it, it’s just the everything else being garbage. It’s like watching the 8bit guy. That’s what pissed me off about the crypto ad, normally you can just ignore that poo poo but he hit you with it with no warning on what looks like a normal cut right in the last bit with actual content on either side.

I didn’t have any problem with the GBR Thrifts title, yes it was obviously trend-seeking but they were individually fine and rebranding to make it clear to non-Brits what the videos were is okay.

It gets extra hilarious when Ludwig already had to put his face on a video with his face on top of a video with his face.
Cant wait for Ludwig to react to the reactions and add a 4th layer to the inception madness.

I mean I dropped off 8 bit guy when his contribution to that "upgrade this computer and pass it on" thing was to undo a load of work other people had done and glue some wires in place (and also when I realised that about thirty percent of his output was retrobriting things).

I think the first time I saw an 8-bit guy video it was him retrobriting something, an old portable computer that had a leather handle on it.
I had never heard of retrobriting before and my first thought was "shouldn't you wrap the handle? Surely those chemicals can't be good for it?" while he was getting the handle covered in the poo poo.

Then he showed the results and he had completely hosed up the leather on it. loving idiot.

Then he sent the handle sans-leather to someone who said they would put new leather on it and then they ghosted him to the point he resorted to asking in a public video for the handle to be returned.

He got hold of some possibly prototype IBM workstation (it was one that was rare anyway but his example had no actual serial numbers on it as well as some handwritten markings) on loan from Computer Reset. In the course of trying to get it working he dremelled the security screws and then shorted the power supply by trying to turn it on with a paperclip and then went "oh well" and that was the end of the video. The Internet yelled at him.

I'm guessing doing it this way is a bit more unorthodox then how the manual describes it?

Old stuff can be temperamantal. I never forget learning how the connection between a CPC 464 and its disc drive can be put in the wrong way, or not, depending on model. And if you blindly put the connector in and get this wrong, you'll fry the poor thing when switching the power on.

So looking at the manual and following the diagram supplied with the computer is kind of a thing that should be done.

Chris McFeely, god drat there's a name I haven't heard in a long rear end time. I remember he used to run a Digimon fan site with a lot of in depth info on the show and behind the scenes access and interviews with the dub writers, actors, and producers. Nice to see he's moved up in the world significantly since then.

Chris mentioned on the latest podcast that he contributed to the Digimon remastered boxset that just came out as it goes.

For most of this year we're going to get Master System's time in the US coverage from Jeremy Parish's ever growing *-works\*-Gaiden series. On one hand, we're probably won't get utterly bewildering episodes like the "Here's the console entirely made for Othello" or "Buying a Pachinko title so you can practice Pachinko at home so you are better at that particular Pachinko machine in the parlor" from last year or so, but coverage of Master System isn't exactly big on the english speaking world. What I'm saying is that even if the games turn out to be a bit more boring to cover, I'm sure he'll find a way to make the coverage engaging. Even if he already covered Snail Maze and HangOn for the SMS less than a year ago.

Huh, I was just thinking about that because I remember her being the internet's punching bag for a while despite being exceedingly harmless. Also that the second version was good? Never listened to it myself to check.

Does she have a video recording all the things that a lot of the internet just turned against super hard like that?

Well to try and be a bit more coherent, any comprehensive video on poo poo that everyone got weirdly hyperbolically angry about? Like at the end of the day Friday was a music video, it wasn't Order 66 or something.
