Anyone know of any cool tech youtube channels? Like, working with things that don't get talked about much. I really like clabretro. Tons of really cool hardware, all kind of Sun enterprise gear, ISP gear, servers, loads of stuff I'd love to try working with but I neither have the cash nor room (you need an entirely separate room for these becuase they're all hyper loud and they put out gobs of heat). Watching this reminds me of how I wish I had money back in 2005/6/7 to grab a bunch of cheap Sun and SGI gear from the dotcom crash instead of still being a schoolboy. (;´ω`) https://www.youtube.com/@clabretro I also like Usagi Electric, who works with a lot of very old computers. Proper old, he has a working Centurion minicomputer system, properly kitted out with disks and terminals, he has an ancient Bendix computer from the 50s that he's trying to get set up, he's building his own simple all vacuum tube computer. Just really coool stuff. https://www.youtube.com/@UsagiElectric Lastly, I like NCommander. Extremely deep technical dives into software, trying to get ancient source code building, ancient Unix stuff, OS/2 stuff, old NetWare. A lot of his stuff is streams sadly, but he does compile things into proper videos. https://www.youtube.com/@NCommander
https://youtube.com/@mattbrwn this is my hardware hacker. he uses arch linux
oh i guess if we are doing ppl like usagi electronic. there is also bugs writter, he is sone indian who dose a really good job show casing linux shelk i love his old videos on shell scripting and automating, ffmpeg, yt-dlp, magick, curl. https://youtube.com/@bugswriter_
there is also this guy who has good introductions videos to openbsd https://youtube.com/@TheOpenBSDguy i am sure we all know. lukesmith and old mental outlaw
oh i just found this channel recently. its not exactly computer at all but its good. i just watched his tape video and loved it and saw he had one for USB https://youtube.com/@davidmalawey/videos
>>173 i lied he dose tech stuff too i just have naut seen manu videos he looks awsome
>>167 oooooh, very nice ヽ(´∇`)ノ >>173 neat always wanted to get into robotics -- was technically on a robotics team at school years ago but we didn't actually do much lol ┐(ﾟ～ﾟ)┌
still can't get over how neat clabretro's stuff is just really interesting enterprise hardware like this system from the mid 00s that lets you slice up the machine with some hardware VM setup https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1NxcgasTIU I'd love even a little bit of kit to mess with, but the sheer loudness of enterprise gear that you stick in an air-conditioned and soundproofed room is certainly a damper
