Great content, script, visuals, and presentation! To me, the background music isn’t as bad as others have made it seem… it did shock me at first, but seemed to be more digestible as the video went on. (I’d still tone it down a bit, but overall not terrible) I have access to a seemingly endless supply of free e-waste that I do my best to repurpose and get out to others who either can’t afford new devices or would prefer reusing a less capable device rather than buying something new. As such, videos like these really relate to me and I’d love to see more content like this in the future. All in, I really enjoyed your video and hope to see many more to come!

Thanks for the comment Zakk! I really appreciate the kind words! Great to hear you are repurposing old tech and helping folks out in the process!
I have a few dell 3050 mini's around that i i got during the pi shortage. One runs my foundry VTT server, my pi hole (snicker), and the other is kind of a test box for whatever I'm into at the moment. I would love to know more about home assistants and how to make one. I was planning on using a pi cm3 lite I have sitting around for that, but I'm still up in the air on that. Good to see someone that fiddles with things like I do. Subbed

Thanks, yeah Pi's are great if you need something tiny, but if not, cheap SFF's are where it is at. Haven't done a PiHole yet; another thing on my tinker to-do list!
Background music is way 2 loud.

Thanks, yeah sounded ok in my headphones but didn't test the mix elsewhere. Appreciate the feedback!
Hey Todd! New Sub; Dryden, Mich. My 2 Younger Ladies & I Love playing with "eWaste" we find. Typically we tear them down, Paint the Chassis something cool with our ACE Hardware Spray collection LOL. They Each have Outdated but Nice Linux Boxes we Play Games with each other. ARMAGEDTRON is a Favorite, And we were Dual Booting Batocera, but I ended up just installing Emulation Station on the DE

Very cool! Yeah aesthetically modding is super fun as well! Some bright Krylon and some RGB strips can do wonders! Appreciate the comment and sub!!👍👍
you need to reduce background volume as its more pronounced than your voice :( very difficult to follow...

@pradeepherle: That's some good constructive criticism. Constructive feedback/criticism is way undervalued & underrated.
Cool content, thanks. God bless. Jesus loves you!
