Short answer NO - longer answer still NO!

I'm sorry this video doesn't meet the usual Bitchute nut job conspiracy standards, and instead relies on facts.

How to move the Unraid Array to a new server/motherboard - it can be done with minimal downtime, and no rebuilds or copying of data, if you do it right. It's simple, just pull the drives and USB key from your current system, stick it all into the new computer, and boot it. If everything went well, Unraid should autodetect all hard drives and start up the array.
However if your array contains sensitive data, you may want to back it up first.

How to build the ADVi3++ firmware yourself, make modification, and flash the LCD on Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus 3D printers and clones/rebrands, after Andrivet has closed off his project for the most part behind a paywall.

Here are my prebuilt files:

Went on a bit of a shopping spree, and got myself a bunch of goodies for the Commodore Amiga's and C64/C128. We have recapping kits, IDE to Compact Flash adapters, several RAM expansions, a Pi1541 hat, replacement power supplies, a Plipbox and more!

I've been shucking a few 4TB external Seagate Portable 2.5" drives of the One Touch and Expansion varieties. They all yielded ST4000LM024 Barracuda SMR drives, seems like those are likely in all Seagates 4TB 2.5" variations currently.
However I ran into some issues, it wouldn't show in BIOS, or in UnRaid most of the time, but occasionally did, and it worked perfectly in other systems. Turns out these drives absolutely needs 3 volts/3.3 volts supplied to them, or the controller will not initialize correctly, and it will mostly just sit there clicking.
But getting the drives out, or to shuck them, is really easy - just poke a knife in where you see the seem, don't go to deep, just like 2-3 mm, and pry it open. Once you have one side done, you can pretty much pull it apart by your bare hands.

Needed to replace a few radiator thermostats, so why not go with something electronic and slightly smart. I decided on the Danfoss Eco 2 - an electronic thermostat with Bluetooth capabilities, App controlled, but not entirely smart home enabled, but not far off either, and much cheaper than it's big brother the Danfoss Ally. In fact the protocol these Ecos uses have been decoded, and the source code for an example project communicating with them is available here: https://github.com/dsltip/Danfoss-BLE - so making the controllable by an ESP32 or Raspberry Pi for home automation doesn't seem that difficult.

DIY Multi-room audio with just some old speakers, and a few Raspberry Pis, for a fraction of the cost of Sonos and other competitors. Supports BlueTooth, Spotify Connect and Airplay, and it's so simple to set up. Using Balena-Sound we make it happen.

I needed a PC for the lab, and since I had a lot of hardware laying around, I decided to just see what I could scrounge up, rather that buying something, or using a laptop.

I did end up throwing in the 1050 Ti, when I discovered AMD hasn't released new drivers for the onboard graphics since 2013.

So the specs ended up being:
AMD FX-8320E
32 GB of G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3
Geforce 1050 Ti
Asus motherboard
120 GB Kingston SSD
2TB WD Green
750 watt Corsair PSU

I'm still not decided on which monitor I'm going to pair with my Samsung TV.

My oppinion on the current wave of classic/mini systems from Nintendo, Sony and even the C64 mini - SPOILER -

Just run Retropie...

I was having trouble getting my XBox 360 controller working with my new Steam Link, here is the solution!

It caught my be surprise when the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B got announced out of the blue, as I was working on getting Windows 10 running on the RPi 3 Model B+. But I immediately ordered one, and here is the unboxing!

I would like to do some benchmarking and compare it to the RPi 2 and 3, so leave any suggestion on how to test it in the comments.

https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b/

UPDATE - there will not be a follow up benchmarking video, as the video has been up for a week now, and despite getting 350+ views(which is very high for my tiny channel), decent like ratio, good watch time etc, there has been no suggestions on how to test this vs the older models, in fact there hasn't been a single comment, so I guess people don't really care about the benchmarks.

I finally decided to try out some "smart home" kit, with a basic Phillips Hue Warm White Starter Kit. Here I walk you through the process of connecting it all up, and getting it paired with the Phillips Hue App, in this case on the Apple iPhone.

It's finally time to add the final upgrades to my Monoprice MSP ( Maker Select Plus ) 3D printer. I have already added the BLTouch sensor, TPU extruder upgrade and flashed it with ADVi3pp - it's time to install the Z-brace modification and add an upgraded part cooling solution with a Diiicooler. These mods should work on all clones of the Wanhao i3P ( Duplicator i3 Plus ).

I picked up a used PlayStation 3 on a thrift run a week ago, but unfortunately it had a bad harddrive. So I decided to take the harddrive out of my current PS3, since I'm planning an upgrade to a larger drive, but then I had to back up my save games first, so that is covered as well in this video.

PS3 System Software update can be found at https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/system-updates/ps3/

Put it in a folder named PS3, and a subfolder named UPDATE on your USB drive. Driveletter:\PS3\UPDATE\

Part 2 of my journey to fit all my junk in my tiny apartment(50 square meters). I have more or less everything arranged they way I want it, now I just need to gather all my equipment and get it hooked up before it's usable. As a bonus you get a quick tour of my entire apartment.

Quick howto guide for getting a Shanwan P3/PS3 clone controller working with Retropie(EmulationStation) on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+. If you have one of these controllers you may experience various issues, such as the joypad start rumbling when it's connected to the RetroPie, or it refuses to reconnect after a reboot. This guide should fix those issues.

However you more experience other problems, such as you may not be able to use more than one of these P3 controllers at the same time on RetroPie. The specific issues with shaking/rumbling and connecting may also be fixed in newer versions of RetroPie, I have not confirmed this, but it has been mentioned to me.

Commands for quick copy pasting are:

sudo /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh

sudo sixad --boot-yes

sudo reboot

You can get latest version of RetroPie here: https://retropie.org.uk/

I live in a very small apartment(50 square meters), but I do all sorts of hobby projects using computers and electronics, and it is taking over all available space. It's come to a point where I have to do something about it, so here is a quick overview of the mess I'm in, and some thoughts on what I'm going to do about it.

I have been having problems with the bed temperature probe, or thermistor, in my Monoprice Maker Select Plus almost since the day I got it, todday we fix that. The repair turns out to be simple, it was just some bad solder joints, but I took quite a while anyway, mainly due to my poor soldering skills.

This should apply to all it's fellow clone/copy 3D printers as well, such as the Wanhao Duplicator i3 Plus, Cocoon Create, Powerspec i3 and maybe more.

I got a bad clog in my heatbreak on the Maker Select Plus, and didn't have a replacement on hand, so here I go through the process of recovering the original heatbreak to a functional state.

I go thrifting a lot, and am in particular on the lookout for old elctronics, game consoles, computers and games, but I usually only return with a bunch of different DVD and BluRay movies. However today was different, and I scored the jackpot with a PSP, PS3 and a bunch of different games, cables and controllers, and even got a speaker system as a bonus.

This is definently my best haul yet in a single day.

I'm quite interested in solar power, so I've started playing around with the idea of building solar charging station for all my USB devices. The problem is I really do not have any good location for placing the solar panels, the amount of direct sunlight they will get is minimal, at least during the winter time, so is it even possible, and is it worth?

Just a quick tour of my modular Ikea Lack Rack, containing my 3D printers, servers and various other hobby/maker space stuff. The Ikea Lack table has been popular for all sorts of DIY projects, and this is my take on it.

You can get the spool holder I showed off here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2179455

I have since exchanged the brackets for something more stylish - the LACKet series of brackets, which looks a lot nicer - https://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=lacket

I recently came across the DR Ultra:bit - a BBC Microbit in disguise. Apparently it was released for the Danish market, without I ever hearing about it, in collaboration with Denmark's Radio. It's neat little microcontroller kit aimed at children - will it make a good Christmas present this year?

I wanted to avoid upgrading my camera or buying an expensive field monitor, so I bought a cheap car review monitor of ebay and quickly designed a hotshoe mount for it. I still need to device a way for it to run of batteries, as it's currently tethered to a plug pack, that will be part 2.

The STL for the mount can be found here:

Latest release of DraCopy I could find - https://csdb.dk/release/?id=165305

Quick video about getting disk images(d64) from the internet, onto your Commodore 64, or other 8 bit Commodore computers. It goes Internet onto SD Card, through SD2IEC device, and use DraCopy to move it to a physical floppy disk, and would be a cheaper alternative to a Pi1541 that is all the rage these days, if you happen to have real disk drives and floppies laying around.
