I had a dream last night that I made some modifications to my submersible pc - but when testing, it filled with water and I had to rush around trying to find something to flush it with but to no avail. 😅 Then I woke up so I don't know if it was a happy ending.
The 'smart' OS on my TV isn't very usable as the interface is so slow and laggy. Are there any fully featured plug-in external options that could replace it?

Anyone have any guesses about what I'm building yet? My two previous tweets give more clues...
Made a little moss garden this morning ^^, try one yourself, it's fun! You just need a cheap plastic tray with a layer of pebbles on the bottom, some soil, and then you can pick and choose whatever mosses you can find outside. Enjoy!
Just had an email from YouTube saying that I'm no longer going to be a 'verified' channel! Going to appeal but it could be very bad if they don't reinstate it - I guess 1.5m subscribers and a very specific viewer and channel identity isn't good enough for them :(

OK, it's officially time for a break! Been working 34 hours straight (through the night up to now) to get my next video out today 🤪 all uploaded so I'm done. Will be live as soon as YT finishes processing. Phew! 💤 😴
Anyone else experience allergy like symptoms when 3D printing with PLA? I burned some PLA during my last project and since have had quite a severe reaction when I'm in the same room as my 3D printer 😭
Anyone know how to bring back drag and drop functionality to the taskbar on Windows 11? It's really weird that they removed it!!! Not... able... to... adapt 😭😭😭
So, I'm pretty depressed at the moment. The project I've been working on all this time is finally complete, and so is the edit. Was about to render it... BUT... the hard drive died. Not joking. 5 months of work is now in the hands of a data recovery company. Need cheering up.
Thinking about finally building a NAS for storing footage. Anyone have any advice as to what to base it on (FreeNAS, Unraid other etc) and what HDDs are a good choice? Diving in at the deep end here...
Anyone seen this on an OLED screen before? It's behind the front glass, but in front of the OLED pixels (each dot has a tiny reflection of itself) 😵💫 didn't notice it until the sun hit it today
Apparently my last video is only showing up at 240p for some viewers? 🤔 Can you guys quickly check if it's 4k or stuck at 240p? If the latter, what country are you in? I don't know if I can do anything about it but it's pretty annoying
Thinking about making a second channel for less 'primary' projects, or behind the scenes content / modifications. 'Extra' videos basically... what should I call it? DIY Perks 2 seems a bit uninspired.
Is it possible to run a game on a dedicated GPU but view it on a monitor connected to a motherboard's Thunderbolt port? The motherboard doesn't feature a DP-in socket, but it does have HDMI and DP outputs.
Viewer survey! My last video didn't do particularly well. If you saw the thumbnail, but didn't click, was it just a bit of a boring idea? Or did you just never see it?
Just getting some night time ambience recordings with my trusty mic ORTF rig (yes, still going strong). DON'T ASK ME WHAT THOSE TERRIFYING LIGHT SHAPES ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SHORE ARE I HAVE NO IDEA AND AM LEAVING NOW 👀
You guys remember the huge RGB shelf I made for

has made a video about how he coded the software that powers its selection and database system! Check it out:
Been recording the past two days of footage directly onto an SSD, but it's somehow now corrupted. Files play fine on the recording device (ninja v) but plugging the SSD into my PC results in a request to format the drive. Anyone know how I can get these .mov files back?
I'm having a hard time finding a compact voltage step down board that's small enough for my next project. It needs to be flat (sub 10mm) and powerful enough to deliver 250w converting 15v to 12v. Any suggestions??? 🫤

It's rather annoying. For those reading, lets say a random app costs £10. The gov gets £2 (VAT), Apple gets £3, and the developer gets the remaining £5. This £5 then gets taxed again as either corporation tax or income tax at varying rates depening on the employee. Crazy.
I think it's time I upgrade my Anet A8 🔥... anyone have any recommendations? Want to consider a wide range of units so that I can make a good long term investment. Going to be printing parts for projects rather than figurines etc.
Heat transfer question: A copper pipe has an external surface area of 0.5m² and is surrounded by water that is 10c. Inside the pipe water is flowing that has a temperature of 30c. How many watts of heat can be transferred from the water inside the pipe to the water outside?
