I attempt to make YouTube videos on random retro tech that I lusted after or had chance to use when I was younger. Still learning so be gentle ;) https://www.youtube.com/RichsRandomRetroReviews https://www.instagram.com/richsrandomretroreviews/

19.02.2026 19:29 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0What turned out to be an idea for an 'easy' video has turned into a bit of a steep learning curve and rabbit hole that I didn't expect to go down. I also seem to be throwing money at this one too. Not much but I've just spend Β£9 on some components.

17.02.2026 14:21 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0I had some old 720p footage with audio that used some weird codec. I wanted to put them into a video to stick on YouTube to share with friends and family so I ran them through Handbrake. It's that which lit up all the cores. It's quite a shock when the fans ramp up as you forget it has them.

Do you have pet insurance for her? I have for Peppy and it's like Β£11 a month.
Glad she's doing OK.
Oh noes! Hope kitty kitty is OK! I had a cat based emergency last night. I poked Peppy in the eye with my finger that had some whipped cream on for him. He was squinting afterwards. I bathed it gently with some warm water and the put some antibacterial eye gel in. Having pets can be such a worry.
