[@glenwaldrop8166]

Same. I built a home made DVR back in 2003 with Duron 700 @ 948MHz, a Geforce 4800+ VIVO and displayed it on a 32 inch Sanyo CRT TV. 1024x768 with the TV automatically handling AA for me... lol Upgraded the TV in 2008, obviously upgraded the PC over the years. This TV has displayed an Athlon XP 2400+ overclocked, an Athlon X2, Phenom, FX 6300 and Xeon 1230 v2 (Ivy Bridge 3770 more or less) with possibly some others that my sleep deprived brain can't think of. It's had a dozen laptops connected over the years, at least 6 consoles. We just phased out of watching traditional TV entirely, even when we watched a show it was recorded on the DVR and watched after the little one went to bed. We use it for web browsing, KZbin, movies, games, etc... I built a HTPC before it was cool and two out of my three children don't even remember a world before that was a thing. As far as they knew when they went to their friend's homes and they didn't have a PC connected to the TV *those guys* were the weird ones.

[@TekMoliGy]

for analog inputs you can buy a retro tink.. it converts composite and component to hdmi with basically zero lag

[@odonovan]

2:12 - "It is barely even compressing." That means it SUCKS as padding as it absorbs almost NONE of the shocks/impacts the package suffers, but instead passes them RIGHT through to the TV. You'd think manufacturers would understand the principle behind shock absorbing packaging. Only an outermost layer should EVER be stiff and unyielding. Inside that should be moderately compressable foam which would absorb and disperse any pressure put on the outer layer, so as to protect the item inside.

Kekkachu not only is he filthy rich, he also gets a ton of hardware just for free because brands send it to him for marketing purposes. A lot of tech youtubers just get given hardware like that.

[@Marco_Onyxheart]

@@MapleLeafAce I'm not sure that he's filthy rich at all. Unless you count the value of his company. But I don't think he can afford to grant himself a huge paycheck or anything. And I don't think he could just buy too much shit all too often. Like you say, he gets a lot of stuff for free. He owns stuff, and he's absolutely not trapped for cash, but I don't think he can earn more than is necessary to live comfortably.

[@trapical]

I never understood all these comments about ""must be nice to have top end hardware!" He's a tech reviewer with nearly 10 million subscribers. Ofc he has top end video cards on hand. Like, seriously, even a tech reviewer 1/50th his size will have those things. Not to mention he literally founded his company from scratch and earned everything he worked for. I can understand complaining about the 0.1% being too wealthy, but Linus is an example of someone of modest wealth/influence who EARNED every penny of it himself.

[@formulaic78]

@@trapical I wouldn't deny that he worked hard to get where he is, but I don't like the model that enabled him to be successful: selling products by splicing his videos with ads.
