looks like he was trying to do exactly what he did
the question is why

He ruined an old computer. Why would he want to do that? I thought he loved that shit.

I don't think he'd have been doing that if the computer worked

he explains it here
youtube.com/watch?v=5rPr2JSKeQ0
he didn't "ruin" anything. the computer was already broken to begin with

timestamp at 5:18 if you want to skip to the part where the capacitor explodes

He looks like "Action Jack" Barker from Silicon Valley.

I like his videos, guy's doing geeky things he likes to do and is happy about it.

I wish he leveled up his electronics and soldering skills though.

Nothing a little retrobrite can't fix!

He likes to make videos of himself cumming out retro bite on old garbage

post it

16-bit guy is way better.

Let's retrobright this LEATHER HANDLE

techmoan is better

I'm starting to think that these threads are made by shills. Either way I don't generally watch random shitty youtubers. At least not on other people's mention. It's the principal of the thing. Someone has to knock word-of-mouth down a peg when there are so many shitty mouths in the world.

>Sends it so some random faggot who claims he can fix it
>Never gets his handle back or hears from them again

arrogant fucker.

8bit boomer is a funny guy. He insults people for trying to give him free crap.

Technology Connections is the real GOAT. Has a lot more technical knowledge than techboomer while still being just as comfy

nah

Based and Redpilled.

Yep - ts advertising / shilling and needs to be treated as such

Original Mac ran a 68000 processor which was 16-bit not 8-bit.

Greetings and I'm more of a LGR guy myself.

Love em

I used that Apple computer on the right in primary school.

He has another video about repairing laptop batteries where he solders directly onto Li-ion cells.

He "insults" people for sending him shit he specifically says he doesn't want, or sending him garbage like old ddr2 sticks. I wouldn't want to be used as random people's trash disposal service, either.

Maybe b/c Techmoan won't stop sending him shitty mixtapes.

He's passionate about tech and his vids are comfy as fuck

This is an effective way to make something work for a couple hours so you can mess with it and film it. Obviously not for long term use.

>despite reporting 8bit nerd threads stay up for days
>not a week without them
>every board seems to have at least one youtuber reposted all over and nothing gets removed

So this is how this site gets their funding now
