KozmoNaut posted:AV in aka composite video. Also VGA, which usually has an analog audio input. I'm gonna take a guess that your modern smart TV doesn't have a pure analog path from a composite input, and definitely not fault it for asking for video input on the VGA input (why does it have one anyway in TYOOL 2017?)

Buttcoin purse posted:Is that what sites did when they wanted an imagemap - because they wanted all their navigation links to be different locations in one big image - but they were concerned about client-side image map support in ancient browsers, so instead their page consisted of a whole bunch of small images that tiled together to make one big one? At least I seem to remember that being a thing. yep, I remember learning that in high school in like 2003, gently caress

WITCHCRAFT posted:There are so many youtube channels that deal in old, weird, forgotten, or even banned back in the day electronics that I would love to learn about. But the person hosting it has to scream and blow out their mic at every exciting discovery. It's a 30+ year old VGA graphics card settle down bub. part of that is played way up for laughs, but the general tone is just someone with adhd who's really excited about the topic

Humphreys posted:Just found this fella and I kinda like how he seems to hate everything he talks about. It's low quality so no stupid transitions, just in depth reviews. He did a really good one on mobile AOL messenger devices and you can feel the loathing. Nah he’s high quality and passionate about some things just it’s taking him awhile to sort out space and he frequently reviews poo poo that’s unusual technologically but not something he is personally passionate about (his home video camera series he’s really excited for). But the most important video to watch on this channel is this one. He does not love the product. No one should love the product. But the inevitable groaning discovery is so worth it. https://youtu.be/JMieEnzb58c

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.

And it’s got not one but two “oh my god Gravis that is so stupid/amazing” reveals in the last half that are worth the wait. But yeah you really couldn’t split this up, and I personally really like that YouTube means I get videos like this that are a deep dive and don’t have to worry about the length like if they were on broadcast TV or something. Nerd poo poo like this is WHY I pay way too much money for YouTube premium. e: conversely there’s a pretty good break about 45 minutes in when he switches to the second device if you want to watch more later. It wouldn’t be a good place to break it into two separate videos, but it is a good place to pause your own watch for awhile. Arivia has a new favorite as of 07:33 on Dec 13, 2022 |

Also Gravis does actually do YouTube Shorts irregularly of stuff that’s only got 2 minutes or less of content. The most recent one is about a phone that’s two handsets in one.
