This will be posted for everyone soon (complete with timestamps for each question); but since ya'll are patrons you get it early. :D Enjoy! If this is popular we might do more (shorter) q+a's more often.
2018-01-17 20:21:14 +0000 UTC View PostPatreon Fees
A lot of you had messaged us privately or let us know that you were unsubscribing due to the change in fees from Patreon. Luckily, it looks like Patreon has backed down on that, which is good news for us and for you. We have looked into some alternatives but I think we'll be sticking here for now. Thanks for the continued suppor...
2017-12-14 22:14:44 +0000 UTC View PostPreview: Net Neutrality Chat with Paul
Hello friends! We have a new video in the queue. It still needs some edits on our end, but it's about done. Paul will also be posting his version of the discussion on his channel that will likely be a bit shorter and sweeter. Check out both and let us know what you think.
2017-12-07 16:56:35 +0000 UTC View PostPatreon Budget Update
We haven't done one of these for a while so thought we'd record one real fast. The TL:DR is most of the money is going towards staff, as usual, but we've also bought some new equipment (like lighting) over the last few months with any money we've had leftover. We appreciate the continued support! :) More to come soon.
2017-11-30 20:52:29 +0000 UTC View PostHappy Turkey Day
Preview of a video that will be made live later today or tomorrow. we've been trying to come up with a better title, but we're coming up dry so far.
We'll be back later after eating, and passing out. Anyone see any fixes or last minute changes that are needed?
Happy turkey day everyone!

What a year! It has been a long, long time since we in the industry have seen a year with so much new hardware releasing for computation, graphics, etc.
This is our CPU round up. What CPU is right for you? Well.. it depends... but we can chat about it for a bit.
Anyone spot any glaring issues before we take t...
2017-10-25 21:06:42 +0000 UTC View PostHow to Ask a Question (on the internet)
Even the most skilled must sometimes ask questions. It is a skill best honed through introspection, rather than practice.
Probably going to release this Saturday unless anyone spots any egregious problems. :D
Level1... Diagnostics?
Level1 Diagnostics -- this is a work in progress, but we will probably make it live tomorrow with more and adjusted broll.
Any information security folks out there? Let us know what you think.
So what we have here is a video about the utilities from AMD installation and configuration of NVME raid. It isn't about nvme rai...

This desk is awesome and if you don't think so you are wrong.
2017-09-14 21:57:42 +0000 UTC View PostSneak Peek -- Dell 43" 4k Monitor Review
This! This is the thing everyone has been asking for. Dell noticed all the sales of import 40/4k monitors, so they did their own. They also charged $1500. It's down to ~$900 now, so "affordable" -- but what's the value proposition? We take a look.
Got this in for a project for someone else, so we took the opportunity to do a r...

I always write "patron" and feel like I should be drinking tequila.

2017: The year of endless hardware. This is building to something though -- be sure to check out our Meshify C build video with this board if you didn't already see it.
Threadripper is just days (well, probably a week for us) away. We'll probably see Intel Coffee Lake (and with it 6 cores on socket 1151) before the end of 2017...
2017-08-09 22:25:54 +0000 UTC View PostPreview: New Series!
This is the first part of a new series we'll be doing about working in the computing industry! The first video is about preparing yourself and your workspace. We're still working on the best set configuration but we think that this turned out pretty well. Let us know what you think.

Another preview! A quick build to test X299. (Sorry about the focus, will do better next time)

2017-07-14 19:19:57 +0000 UTC View PostPreview: UX Tips and Tricks
Hello friends! This will likely be released this Thursday. It's a short video with some beginner tips to get started in the design and UX field. I use a lot of these in my practice every day. Brief cameos from Wendell and Ryan too!
2017-07-10 14:57:47 +0000 UTC View PostQubes OS: The Os, The Myth, The Legend
Let us know if you spot any mistakes or oopsies.
We'd planned to do an install guide, but ran into problems with Ryzen. And we though "Do people know why they would want to do this?" Because, on the surface, it seems like a lot of work for not a lot of gain.
So we decided to split it up and this is a "why you'd want to" ...

IOMMU -- The Tech, The Myth, The Legend (Draft)
The video I know you've all been waiting for! I'm still working on the article AND this video is but a lowly DRAFT -- likely filled with errors and/or confusing innuendo. It is not final, and not likely in the final version we will publish.
This type of video is one of the kinds of video that most of the Patreon efforts ...

Some of you had mentioned wanting to hear more about the tea plantation visit during Wendell's adventure in Taipei, so here's a little mini-vlog with the additional footage he had. Vlogs are real weird for us still (it's so bizarrre talking to a camera when you're in public lol), but if you guys like this kind of content, we may...
