In the intro, Linus mistakenly adds 'Soviet' when expanding the acronym C.S.S.R. which should be simply 'Czechoslovak Socialist Republic'. Additionally, there are comments stating that this keyboard couldn't have been used at Chornobyl. We can't be 100% sure, of course.

5:32 Linus mentions that the information is broken into two half bytes. I don’t think many people know this, there is a term for a half byte. One half of a byte (4 bits) is referred to as a “nibble”. The term came from a play on the words “byte” and “bite”. When you eat, what is smaller than a “bite”? A “nibble”. I think it should be spelled nybble to differentiate it from nibble meaning a small bite. A nybble would be a small byte.

Imagine having more ownership rights including Right to Repair in USSR than in modern USA. Imagine electronics not just come with schematics, but also instructions how tune it and sometimes even how to make a new one(if you can obtain parts, which was hardest part).

@LinusTechTips. Please correct the title of the video. The correct spelling is Chornobyl (Ukrainian spelling), not Chernobyl (Russian spelling). Chornobyl is a Ukrainian city, so the correct spelling is Chornobyl. This seems like a small thing, but it is very important for us, Ukrainians, who want nothing to do with the russians.

Damn, it's cool to see that thing working! I bought a consul 259.13 board off ebay a couple years ago but never got around to working on it. This video is convincing me I should really take a look at it and try to get it working. I was hoping to write a qmk adapter for it to maybe get it working more like a modern keyboard, but I might just end up when the semi-functionality you guys got.

Tbh it`s so tiring to see stuff like this. And the hbo show only made it worse. Why would you take a ukrainian name, spell it in russian and then transliterate the russian version to english. Same with Kyiv. Just get rid of the extra step, stuff like this is just a painful reminer of imperial past.
@wyterabitt21493 ай бұрын
@@xxanda_01It was already that in English. Honestly, get over it there are far more important things to worry about with Russia rather than an entire other language that spells things in that language differently not changing everything everytime the world changes. Some things will slowly evolve again, some might or might not, others won't. None of it is a targeted thing it's just natural language evolution we try not to hide the past by forcible changing it artificially.
