Congrats on the extra space, you're living the dream!

Cathode Ray Dude

this is exactly why I make videos like this, so people can find these things before they get tossed! Awesome!!

Thanks to you enlightening me to the existence of the OPS standard, I was able to spot a 20 point multitouch 65” OPS display (viewsonic ifp6560) in a gov auction lot of what seemed like trash. Won that lot at 150$ and made off with an 8000$ display! Even had an i5 module loaded in it and 2 stylus!! Turns out they’re basically all made from the same components repackaged for different brands. After digging deep into mine to diagnose an EPROM issue and getting into bed with the motherboard manufacturers (MStar international) to track down otherwise impossible firmware files and service documents, I now know more than I ever wanted to about these displays. (P.s. they all run android (; ). The entire thing. OSD menus, settings, everything. It’s all a heavily skinned android ~ 6 OS behind the scenes. And many of them have engineering settings menus that can only be accessed with the ir remote.

10:17 - Reznor heater hanging from the ceiling! None of that Matthew Modine stuff from Illinois. We got Trent! I have a shirt that a friend of mine made. It's a collage of Reznor heaters. Then it says, "Is it hot in here, Trent, or is it just you?" ...okay, I'll go back to Unix geeking. Enjoy the extra spaaaaaaaace.

I'm glad to see that weird hybrid computer / phone still in your collection.

Cathode Ray Dude

That's something I wanted to do right from the day I moved in tbh

I'll be honest, that brick-wall asthetic actually looks kinda nice. Maybe just a thought, but if you were to do "Warehouse" videos, then maybe actually use that wall as a backdrop :D

If we get anything good from this whole internet revolution thing is that there is some monetization model for nerds to have their nerd shows like yours or Technology Connections. I'm very happy to see this video!

HotKey

Spaaaaaaace! 🌍 👽 💕 (btw. "F'ed up GameBoy" made me giggle)

william fordon

Woooo space to breathe!

Drunk with power

I liked every Minute of your tour!

Adam C.

So a video on early Video effects in a broadcast environment when? Chromakey, etc...

Jason Watson

Congrats on the new space! As you allude to, it seems like it's been a tough year, really happy to see you excited for this new space and the adhoc videos to come, I definitely am!

Congratulations! The new space looks fantastic!

Josiah Thorne

Dilloid

Absolutely baller 💪

That's amazing! Glad to see you able to expand and I would absolutely love long-form videos (well, longer than currently, anyways :P) of you talking and demoing random stuff live and unscripted. Oh, and something funny: my mother is actually a teacher and, what do you know, her classroom has the exact same board! When you entered that room and I saw the board on the edge of the frame, my jaw dropped, then it dropped even more when you said it's OPS. How did I not think about that or realize?! Now I'm doubly tempted to try to find one... although I certainly don't have space anywhere for one of those, lol. What model is your board, out of curiosity?

adorfer

i noticed the change of studio backdrop (without the full shelf) and thougt: That's a great improvement

Bike Forever

So cool to see you so excited. On to new adventures, can't wait to be introduced to all your favourite little pieces 😁

Cathode Ray Dude

oh i have tons already I just need to actually use them lmao. thanks!!

pleonasticTautology

we have spare anti-static bags because we only needed one and it came in a pack of, like, 10 or something? but like. not going to use any of the rest. we'd be happy to swing by to drop them off sometime if you want?

Chicken

You go girl!

Cathode Ray Dude

I'll try to keep that in mind because i really *don't* need four, this was a happy accident that will hopefully collapse into just *one* eventually.

Akshay Anand

CRD 3.5 then

Anapan

Hah - Cool! That's a lot of computers.

D. Roscoe

Congratulations on the upgrade from sink to kitchenette with overhead cabinets.

andy c

i'm excited for your journey!

Kerne

Btw, if you're interested in selling one of your early "broken" multisyncs, shoot me a message...I think a 24khz crt is the only gap in my own collection.
