Does anyone know what happened to the computer setup tour video and why? I noticed that it's been unlisted or privated.

Hopefully the shutdown gets more people interested in jailbreaking their systems, leading to better and easier methods of doing so. I don't think there's gonna be any problem at all with eShop preservation.

The real reason was I just thought it was really funny to censor swear words with the Windows 98 CHORD sound lol. Yeah, a lot of the time I find censored swearing to be much more comical. LTT and Scott the Woz do it as well, but the Windows sound is great because it's less jarring than a loud beep.

can you redirect gaming.mattkc.live to RickRoll'D? Not the official music video, but this one:

I had a computer when I was younger. 2011 iMac. Beautiful machine. One day, shut off and had these weird purple lines on the screen. It was so sad. Hopefully if I get good at electronics repair I can try to fix it some day in the distance future. I think it was a GPU thing on mine as well. Hopefully...

I would totally watch let’s plays with non-emo MattKC. Though it’d probably have to be on a second channel.

I saw a comment on the video speculating that the missing text was the missing bytes that didn’t save. Could that even be the case? It kinda makes sense but why would they store game data like that in a save file?

Multimeters are neat. I just picked one up from Amazon for around 10 bucks, and it's great. I used it to fix a keyboard I have. It was perpetually in Mac mode instead of Windows mode, so I was able to test the switch, see it was fine, and then test connections around the board to diagnose the proble...

I’m using a cheap non-brand one that I got in a kit, which is stupid and probably dangerous, but I don’t really solder that much (because I suck at it). I'm far from an expert, but I started with a soldering iron that was fairly cheap - about 30 AUD. Do you recall the name of this one? ~20 dollars i...

I use MacOS at home and Windows for gaming and work stuff, but I'd like to try out Linux sometime.

Aw! I missed it and am sad. Oh well, I'll see if I can make it next time. Does Matt have a schedule or is it mostly random?

How do you even manage the internet? Do you just have to be really cautious? It must suck to get pwned by a random super bright or otherwise uncomfortable image.

Does LGR count? I'll admit I'm not a massive viewer of his stuff but it seems cool.

Alright, I’m both an avid viewer of MattKC and LMG channels. While I do prefer MattKC videos, LTT stuff is still great. Sadly, clickbait is basically a must if you want to get views nowadays. There’s a reason why the Youtube Thumbnail Face is so prevalent: it works. LMG is on the grind, and it’s imp...

This is kinda the same thing as this.

I, too, used to have an intense hatred for Fortnite, but it has stepped aside, Genshin Impact taking its place.

I think a gif of the 8-Bit-Guy doing a thumbs down would be funny (the thing from the beginning of the MattKC broken monitor video). Not sure if gifs of this are readily available, though.

Usernames are a funny thing. Sometimes they hold meaning and sometimes they are utterly meaningless. Some are aliases that have been adopted for years, and some are one-time uses. Where do your usernames come from? Mine is a strange one. It was forged in the fires of Minecraft Pocket Edition. It was...

How did you do that?

Replaced the polarizer. Basically I cut off the front layer of the screen and replaced it.
