Let's say Andy Reed and the Chiefs, they win another Superbowl and people start talking that he is better than Bill Belichick. What do you have to say to that? I will pull the same card that people used to discredit Bill Belichick about his record without Brady and I'd do it with Reed with his record without my homes. Does he have another Superbowl without Patrick Holmes? He lost the one that he made with the Eagles to the Patriots. He wasn't on that Eagles roster that beat them. No, he was in Kansas City. He may have one like assisting coach or something, but I don't think I'd have another one. No, you'll count it. Add it to the list. All right, so if we're doing that with assistance, Bill's got two when he was assistant to the Giants. You've got to add his Browns tenure too. Well, that's fine. If that happens, and we're going to start to talk about Andy Reed being the greatest coach ever, we have to discredit him to say, we discredit Bill Belichick.


Hi everyone, this is Chih-chou. Welcome to my channel. What I just ended up doing was doing a little unannounced live Twitch session. It took a while getting this done for the last week. I've been trying to fix things up, fix it up with the sound and stuff like this. And I finally figured out that after talking to the ISP and stuff like this, figured out that I had to upgrade my modem and kick it up to the highest internet that's available for me in my area. And that's what I did. I want to grab the brand-new modem and we got the highest level internet that we could possibly get in my area and we just ended up doing a live Twitch feed, a live Twitch run. And there's a handful of people that popped on and talked and helped me work my way through the live feed and everything seems to be working out. The sound is okay and there's no more buffering going on or very minimal buffering going on. And what I'm going to do is right now, I assume this is just a little intro, we're going to go into the live Twitch session that we just did. And just to give you a heads up, it's broken down into three segments. The first segment was we did it. It was running at 1080. So I had to decrease the resolution so other people could... There was one person that couldn't get the feed coming in fast enough to them was buffering too much. So everyone agreed. We stopped the live stream and then started again at a lower resolution, 720 or so. So 720, everybody was happy. The sound was coming out okay. And we did that. And what we did during that session was basically, or what we're doing during this live session was I was sharing with everyone, showing people the main websites that I use or a handful of the main websites that I use to get my comic book information, right? And we talked about that during the live session where I sort of went on a rant and speedy Gonzales talking about it. And the last little segment, I read the comments that someone mentioned that the screen, the OBS wasn't capturing everything because I changed the resolution. I had to readjust my screen and I didn't want to, you know, cut the stream again and figure that stuff out. But after cutting the stream, I read the comment again and looked at OBS and I realized what it was mentioning. So the third section, the third part of this live stream, it cuts off and the third part starts very short. And it's just basically with the screen adjusted so you can see the whole screen on your site. So again, apologies for the, I guess, the second segment because you can't see the whole screen. Where I'm showing you guys the websites, what I'm doing because the resolution wasn't fixed. I had adjusted an OBS. But anyway, this is my first live Twitch feed that worked and we ran through some stuff. And what we're going to do with these websites, and I'm going to add a few more bookmarks on my comic book bookmark tab or folder. What we're going to do after we do the next live stream, which is most likely going to be next week, December 20th or 21st or so, I'll make an announcement on Twitch and on Twitter and probably on my blog, on my website. But basically, after we do a live stream next week, and the next week live stream on Twitch is basically, since people have been asking me to do more political videos and stuff like this, and I'm going to approach it from around economics and whatnot. And I'll do some political stuff as well. What I thought I'd do, I'll share with you guys the websites and the sources I have, trusted sources I have that I go to to get my political and economic news. And what we're going to do most likely next week is basically do what we did in this Twitch live session. But we're going to do it for politics and economics, because people have been asking me to do more political videos. And I thought maybe a good idea to show you guys the sources that I use to get my political information. And it does move around a lot. And I'm going to transfer the sources, some of the bookmarks from my main desktop computer that I've had for six, seven years to this laptop that we have. Well, I'm not going to transfer all of them. I'm going to transfer some of the main ones. OK, so we're going to run through that most likely next week on Twitch. But you don't need to join Twitch to view that stuff. You do if you're going to view it live. But I will, after doing that, upload that video on YouTube as well. And once I get Twitch figured out, what we'll end up doing is we'll do live streams on YouTube as well. And on YouTube, we'll specifically stick to non-political stuff, especially now that net neutrality is gone. We'll talk about that a lot more later on, right? But the live stream that I want to do on YouTube is basically looking for comic books that you guys mentioned. And I'm going to show you guys how I go about finding good deals on eBay or doing my research regarding comic books using the websites that I do. OK. Anyway, this is my little intro to the live stream that you're about to watch that we just did on Twitch on December. I don't know what December it is, December. Let me check my December 14th, 2017. And we're going to do a lot more live streams from now on, not that I have everything figured out and got my new computer and got a new modem and upgraded to the highest speed we can online. That's it for now. I'll see you guys in the next video. Hi everyone. This is Chicho. Welcome to my Twitch page. Now, what I want to do, let me turn down the volume. Let me show the volume on my Twitch page. I just want to do a little test run. What I ended up doing is I want to get a new modem. I upgraded my internet to the maximum level I can be to try to deal with this buffering. And I'm doing a little test run to make sure that there is no buffering. And it would have already started buffering by now. That's what I've been doing for the last week or so, trying to work my way around this and fix up with the sound and stuff like that. So it looks like it's working fine. That's cool. It's not buffering anymore. So I guess we're doing Twitch live. Sweet. But we're timing because we just lost net neutrality in the United States. So we're not sure how this is going to affect everything on a live broadcast. It's going to become a lot more expensive for creators. It's going to become a lot slower for information transformation and transmission. If you're not one of the oligarchs, right? So we'll see how this plays out. But it is what it is. It is what it is. I'm just happy to be on this right now. Got all the buffering stuff fixed up. And look at this. There's a sort of a window mirror fractal happening with looking at this thing. Super cool. Super cool. So what I want to do right now is just do a little quick thing. I tried to do this before, but I was getting a lot of buffering and stuff like this. Because what I'm doing is, and here's my OBS and I'm streaming from. So that seems to be working fine. Hopefully it's looking OK. There's nobody online watching right now. So what time is it? It's like 11, 20 a.m. So it's not optimum time to watch, right? But what I want to do is I'm going to be uploading this to my YouTube page and my BitShoot page as well, channel as well. I've reduced the window size here. So I won't be able to see anybody commenting. But that's OK right now. What I'm going to do right away is personalize. Anyway, I'll deal with this later. I want to change the mouse so you actually do see it if I'm clicking on it. But one thing I do want to show you, I'm just going to overlay this one. And there's a way to keep this on top. Pin to overflow menu. Is that going to do it? No, that doesn't do it.  Menu, customize. OK, I'm not going to customize it this way. I just want the Twitch to be overlaid on top, just in case if there is buffering. Actually, so let's reduce this guy. What I tried to do before, and one of the main, the first Twitch live feed that we're going to do, is basically me showing you, because what I'm doing, I brought a brand new laptop to be able to do this live streaming on Twitch and get into gaming as well a little bit. I do want to get back into gaming. But what I want to do is transfer over all the bookmarks that I have on my main computer that I've been using for like last, I don't know how many years now, seven years or so. And I loaded that thing up. I made sure it was a desktop computer as a beast. I took whatever I could at best quality of whatever the processors were and stuff like that during that time. I loaded it up into that desktop so it would last me up to this point, I guess. But I've got a lot of bookmarks that I have regarding economics and politics on that other computer, my desktop computer. And I do want to transfer those bookmarks here, but I don't want to transfer all of them. So I'm going to go through and pick some of the bookmarks from my desktop and put them into news data and reads and stuff like this and sources, good source of information. And I thought we'd do that together. We're probably going to do that next week. Most likely I'll talk to some of the people, well, one person on my Patreon page that supports me through Patreon. And I think we're going to shoot for either December 21st or December 22nd to do that official live feed. But what I thought I'd do since this thing's not buffering the streaming live. So super cool. Let's check this out. Hi, the pre-doctorie. How you doing? My old school way is to say, it's to type, right? Nice to have you here. So, and I guess right now, instead of typing, I just have to talk. So nice to have you here. But what I thought we'll do right now really quick, I just want to show you the bookmarks I added for my comic book stuff. Some of the, how many do I have? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. I got eight sites that I go to, I use for my comic book feed. Let's see, what's, thanks. Good seeing you. Good to be here, brother. Good to be here, brother or sister. Why am I typing? I should be just speaking. Good to be here, man. Finally getting this thing done without buffering. And just so you know, what I'm going to do is just show you some of the bookmarks that I use. Some of the websites I go to for my comic book information, right? And what I've done is created an eBay account with Cheecho Live, okay? And I just created this a few days ago because what do we plan on doing? I think for the comic book stuff. When we start talking about comic books and stuff, I love to see what books you guys are looking for. And what I thought we'll do, I'll show you guys how I go about searching on eBay to find good deals on how I do my buys. So this is a new account I created, Cheecho Live, zero feedback, zero watch list and stuff like that. So I thought we'll grow that together and track some books live. And if you find, if we end up finding anything, if you want to grab them, you grab them, right? I won't be buying against you. Everything seems fine to me. Awesome, awesome. Thank you for the feedback. Awesome. How's the sound, by the way? How's the sound? Just checking. I don't have options for lower quality and internet isn't good enough for 1080. I can't handle 1080. How do I reduce this? Hey, Cheecho, good to see everything up and running. For sure, man, for sure. We got late three people out here. This is my first live experience other than doing Skype sessions with students and stuff. So I'm really excited to do this, actually. As for Easy Zenman 64, if you can't handle 1080, how do I reduce it so you can? Or is this something that you have to do from your end? Sound is perfect, awesome. Channels with higher viewer count get quality options. Otherwise, the default is whatever he chooses to stream. So this is on my OBS, right? So let's check this out. So I'm streaming, I guess, at 1080. Just to make it easier for Easy Zenman 64. I'm going to call you Man 64 if that's OK, or Easy 64 maybe. How do I change the options of OBS to stream at a lower quality so everybody's able to hang on here? Tools, captions, automatic scene, output timer, nope. Order, transform, five. You know what, I don't know how to do this Easy Man 64. I'll look into it though, if it's a problem for a lot of people. Because settings, maybe some settings. Settings, video, base outputs. So if I change the outputs, oh, I guess I'm streaming right now. Video output is currently active. Please turn off any outputs to change video settings. I'm getting some stream, but don't first for me. I'll just wait for it afterward, I guess. Are you sure, man? If you want to watch, what I can do is stop the stream as long as it's OK with everybody. I'll set it to a lower quality, and we'll have you on board. Easy works for me, perfect, man. Easy is perfect for me too, easy to say. So is everyone OK if I kill the stream, lower the output, and we'll see if that helps out easy so he can stay on and do this live stream right now? First thumbs up, I'll do it. If people aren't OK with it, then we'll just do this live stream, this little unannounced live stream. I would recommend 720 and 45 rather than 860. OK, cool. Plus lower bandwidth to around 300 can help. Sure, all good, sure. Done deal, man. I'm killing this feed, and I'm going to try to change the setting, OK? I'll be back as soon as I do it, OK? So for some reason, the webcam is not showing. Oh, wow. Oh, because I changed the resolution. It moves the thing. Wow, trippy. OK, so we reduced that. Let's check that out. So is everything going OK? Are you guys getting the sound video quality OK? Let's see this, seems OK. So are we good with this? Oh, there's a little bit of buffering going on. Got it at 720 now. Cool. Oh, it's buffering. Why is it buffering? How's the sound? No, buffering stops. So that's OK. I am going through wireless. So there might be minor interruptions. I am good. Cool, cool, cool. 720. Sound is good. Perfect. Perfect for up and running. Oh, why am I typing? I could just speak. Clear Chris out. Yes. Fun stuff, fun stuff. So should I show you guys just some of the websites that I use for my comic book stuff? Let's reduce that. Cover that up, because I would love to load that up on YouTube as well. I do have other comic book sites that I go to. But since I already have those on here, I thought I'd show you guys those ones. Just to set us up for what we're going to do regarding comic book stuff, some of the websites we can use. And you guys can use those as well. I wish I could see the, and I reduced this. I wish I could see the comments. I can move this around. Well, I'm not going to mess around with Twitch right now. Okay, let's do this. So the websites, the main websites, I transfer over like, I don't know, one, two, three, four, five, sort of information sites that I go to, to search for comic books, right? To get information in comic books and stuff like this. The eBay account, Chicho Live, we created. So we can start doing some searches on eBay and look at some of the comics that you guys might be looking for. And we'll do this live. So we find any good deals. I won't be, I won't buy anything, unless it's something that I really want to buy. But I'm not going to do it through Chicho Live anyway. So I won't be buying anything, but we'll do some searches for you guys. Then I'll show you guys how I go about trying to find good deals on eBay, okay? And then what I do, when I'm doing searches on eBay, when I'm looking for comic books, one website I do end up using is this. It's sometimes a slow to load on. A load of, there we go. It's comicpriceguide.com. It's a pretty good website. Let me show you this. Let me show you the whole page. You have to create an account to have access to everything, okay? And it's sort of, you know, over here, it says hot new comics. It's fun seeing all the pages and stuff. But the main way I use the site is right here, search price guide. I use it at price guide. And keep in mind that this is just a price guide. Guide being the main word here. Because I've looked for comic books on eBay if I'm doing it, even comic book stores and stuff or if I'm going to a convention, making a list for myself to buy some comics. I do do a search before I go to see what the range is, what this guide is telling me. So for example, if we go our venture number one, oops. You put that, oops, pointing. You put the name here and you put the issue number here. If you don't want to look for a specific issue, you want to look for a run, you just do, you just search for something. We're searching for Harbinger right now. So if you do search for Harbinger, it gives you the series, the different series that we're up or even mini series as well that have and trade paperbacks as well, that have Harbinger as the main title and then there's secondary titles as well. Harbinger wars, Harbinger acts of God and so on and so forth. And it hasn't by the dates here if you can see. So if we want to do a search here, you can go to Harbinger and it gives you the price range of how much the book is selling for, right? So it lists them, you know, sequentially down and then what it does, what you can do is, as long as you're logged in, you have to log in, right? I've logged in this cheat show right here in the top right corner if you can see, right? And then what you can do is click on, you can click on the image and it makes it bigger, right? So it's not bad, it's fun. And then what you can do is click on the number here and it takes you to different prices that the comic is selling for, right? And right now, if you take a look at this thing, it's got the price raw value and it's got the price graded value up here. And, you know, Harbinger is one of the comics that right now, like you can buy or, you know, Harbinger at 9.8 raw, it's saying it is selling for 186, which is not selling for a lot more. Well, raw may be that much, okay? And it's saying that graded is selling for 372, but you won't be able to find a 9.8 graded Harbinger number one in eBay and 372 is being listed for 800 plus. The 9.6 graded, I've seen sell for 180 bucks, 190 bucks, 200 bucks, actually 220 bucks if it was CGC or CC, whatever the other one is, okay? So use this site with caution. And I've seen a lot of books here that are listed for a lot higher than what they're going for and a lot of books listed for a lot lower than what they're going for. So it is just a guide, okay? I'm gonna go to Twitch again, see if there's any comments being put up just so I can address anything. No, it's all good. I'm not sure how I'm gonna check comments if I'm streaming. I'll figure out how to get this text people commenting to be on the side or something. Next time I'm streaming that way. I don't have to check it every time but we'll leave that alone for now. So this is one of the sites that I use comicpriceguide.com. Another site that I use, which is a price guide. Well, not a price guide, where's the other price guide? Oh, I didn't transfer the other price guide here. Actually, let me do a search for it because we do need that one as well. Comicprice, that's the one I go to comicbook.rel. This is the one. And this is another site that I use, comicbook.rel, okay? As a price guide. And it is a good site as well. And you can do the searches here. You can search by publisher or you can search by series again, our binger and you can do a search. And this one goes by the dates that put the dates here. So harbinger volume one, right? There's 52 issues and stuff like this. And if you click on it, let's see what the price difference is. So over here, it's, you know, automatically puts the stuff here and you can click on here. And it says the current value is 125 versus how much was this one? Click back. And I'm guessing that's near mint price. So near mint, this is 132, which they're about the same, right? And then I don't use this one. I haven't used this one to find out what the very, what the difference is regarding the grades. I just usually check the information just quickly on here, but this is my main one, okay? So here's another site that we check. Let me add that to my bookmarks as well, comicbook.rel. Let's put it right on there here. Another site that I end up using is, and it's a pretty, you know, 90s website and it's Invest Comics. And the person is, he's doing it for the love of it, this person. I'm not sure if it's one person, multiple people doing this. Pretty sure it's a store that's doing it, but it's a brutal website. Well, I don't wanna trash the guy's website. He's got Facebook feed and stuff like this. I like it. I frequent this a lot before I go to the comic book store every Wednesday, right? So I check it usually on Tuesday night or Monday nights and stuff like this. Sometimes on the weekend, because he adds on a few different topics that he has. Usually day or two days before Wednesday, he loads on Invest Comics top five picks for that Wednesday, okay? So if you click this right now, okay? So this is slow load and with net neutrality gone, I don't know how fast this site's gonna be from now on, man, hardcore, hardcore. And you've got a lot of things on here. So you have to sort of scroll down and he gives you the list of the top five comics that he thinks are worth buying for that week. And if you click on these things, it takes you to eBay, right? And you can click on the images and it takes you to eBay. And at the bottom here, he has a list of other comics that he thinks are worth buying, right? And take this with a grain of salt, but he does say why, you know, a certain comic that he's picking is one of his top five picks. So if you click on this, right? Not new tab, I do the scroll click, and it takes you to eBay and it gives you a list of, you know, the comics. And if you have an eBay account, you can, you know, put them in your watch list or do whatever you want, right? And another thing that he does, I usually check the top five picks and I usually check the invest comic hot picks and he puts one of these out and one of these out once a week, okay?  And again, it's a slow load. While it's loading, let me go to Twitch and see if there's anybody leaving any feedbacks. No, okay, good. As long as you guys are cool, it's just, and then check this out. So this one, it's a whole, I mean, reduced the, nah, nah, it's still good. So if you take a look at this one, again, you have to scroll down past the batters and all this jazz. And he has a list of all the comics that he's picking for the week at some of these are older comics. He's referencing them. He's telling you which ones are the first appearances and stuff like this. And again, all everything, almost everything anyway that is highlighting here in red that links you to, again, I'm clicking on Weapon X number 12 and he's clicking on here. All of it takes you back to eBay, okay? So he's done a pretty good job of making it easy for you to find things and participate in this, right? Some of his searches aren't perfect. When you click on him and you go to eBay, it's all wacko, okay? And in this, he's got a lot more than five picks. He's got a ton of picks that he chooses every week, okay? And if you scroll down, and this one, he doesn't have that much. You only have three rows or four rows and a little bit of text. Sometimes it goes off. He's got like tons of picks, okay? So that's another website I use. Let's make sure this is streaming, okay? Where's my Twitch? Cool, no buffering, no buffering, looking good. Nice, nice, nice, okay. So that's another website I use. I'm just gonna close these guys up so we're not using any bandwidth. Here's another site that I use is Comic Line. And I do this for research. I look on here, the articles they put out when you go to their front page, these guys, they don't put out these articles very often and I do check them out, but they put them out like once a month or once every three months or so. So it's not very frequent that they're posting articles here. What I mainly use them for is search where I get information regarding series, comic books, creators and stuff like this. So if we go to the search box and unfortunately their search is not very good, so I usually hit up the search with Google, okay? But for example, let's go Harbinger, okay? And don't press enter right away.  And that's the way I do the search directly from ComicBind. Otherwise, if you press enter, it gives you the search is sometimes a wacko, okay? It's not usually first picks here. So I type whatever I wanna type in and then it goes here. And if you look at this thing, it's Harbinger Volume 1, Issue 1. And this is just the, what do you call it? I think this is just a collection of the trade paper. It's not even the series, right? So their search is not the best, but it is a fantastic website for information. And again, if you press Harbinger, it's not doing it for you. So let's go approach this through. Hey, let's see if we can find it here first, Harbinger. No, let's go through it through Google, okay? Let me go to my face, let's go to Google. So the way I do it is if I wanna search something on Comic Vine, I go Harbinger Comic Vine, right? And I press enter. And you can do this through DuckDuckGo as well. So I'm gonna click on this. And usually the first two or three will take you to the right place. And the first one I clicked, this one, took me to the volume I wanted. No, actually, this is the volume that 2012. Here's Harbinger. Oh, this is a different Harbinger. Harbinger, my God, I should have done something easier. Here's the, here's the 2002, sorry, 1992 series, right? So the 1992 series was, wait a second, was it this one? No, it was the next one now, yeah. So the 2012, 1992 series was this one. Oops, down here. And the 2012 series that started was up here, right? So through Google or through whatever search engine, it might take you a couple of clicks to get to here. And what you can do with this is when you go to a series, it lists it from the most recent back. What you can do here, if you look at this one, reverse order, you can reverse it and it starts off with the number one, right? I'm usually up with number zero first, but number one, usually most series start. And if you go to the 1992 series, you can take a look at this, it's reverse order. Issue number 41 was the last issue in 1995 for Harbinger. And if you reverse the order up here, it reverses it, okay? So that's another website I use, okay? And it's a good website, I like it. Okay, I like it a lot actually. And for example, let's go here. We'll click on Harbinger from the 2012 series, right? It gives you the list of the different types of covers, who the, you know, side location, regular cover, pull box variant, A and B. It's got, you know, name, omega rising, Harbinger number one, the dates. It's got a little write up on it. It's got the different covers on the side here. It's got a tremendous number of info. And it's got the creators listed here, as you can tell, right? Ton of, oops, I clicked on one of the creators. And again, you can click on a creator, right? Who's the writer for this? Writer, writer, writer, writer, writer. Joshua Dysart, right? Fantastic writer, fantastic writer. And I wonder if he's gonna give us, wow, that took us there. And you can click on the artist and take a look at, you know, who the artists are. And it lists you, and you can view all here. Take a look at this. Lists you all the books in their database that Joshua Dysart has worked on. So what you can do here is say, Joshua Dysart appears in 242 issues, right? And you can click on it, view all, and get a list of all the comic books that he wrote, right? Fantastic. And you can go down here and zoom through the pages, okay? So that's another website that I use that I like a lot. Here's another website that I use, which is MyComicShop.com, MyComicShop.com. And again, I do searches here. And for this as well, I usually go through Google because there's search, let's try this, or binger, all right? And you can pick the publisher. So I'm just gonna go Valiant and narrow the search down, where's Valiant? There it is, Valiant, search. And this website is fantastic. And you can do the search here, and this one does it again, 41 issues, 1992, and then it's got the 2012 series. And I think the ones that are highlighted is the main series, maxi series. Let's go to Twitch, is it still live streaming? Yes, nice. And we're here, right? And what you can do is click on this, right? So we're gonna go to the 1992 series, Harbinger. If you click on this, it gives you, again, sequentially lists the comic books. It's got a little description of what they are, right? It's got a list of what they have for sale, right? So for example, we took a look at CGC 9.8 in the guide, it was saying it was selling for like 300, 400 bucks. Right now, this one's listed at 1100. CGC 9.6, 300, 350. CGC 9.4, so the prices vary, and it's got a little description, right? It tells you it's got a coupon and stuff like this, and I don't usually go out to want this because I don't buy things from my comic shop. I use it, I bought them from eBay from my comic shop a couple of issues, but you're gonna go to Contents, and it tells you when it came out, the price, who the editors were, the creators who worked on the series and stuff like this, right? Fantastic information, and one other thing it does, which this is the only site that I've seen do it, is it's got CGC census here. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the other grading companies listed here, hopefully we'll add those on, but it's got the CGC listed here of how many books have been graded and at what grade they got, right? So at 9.8, there's Universal, which means there's no, hasn't been, what do you call it, it's not Signature Series or it hasn't been when they touch it up and stuff, right? So there's 239 graded at 9.8 and stuff like this, and what you can do on the side here, you can click on what's highlighted here because they get their data from CGC, and you can click on that, I'm just opening that up in a new tab, and you can go to the page that CGC has for the information to have here, and the CGC page has a more recent information. So the one on my comic shop is not the most updated one. This one on CGC is the most updated one, and to have access to this on CGC, you have to be logged on, and I do have an account on CGC on the other computer, I just haven't logged in on here, okay? Because I don't usually check for CGC, and if I do, I bought some CGC just to check, make sure the serial number is on and okay and stuff, right? So my comic shop is another website that I use, and comic book database, fantastic website, right? Fantastic website, it has a tremendous amount of information, so much information. You could get lost in this thing, right? So if we go, for example, Harbinger, since we're all looking for Harbinger, let's do a search, I'm just gonna go Twitch again, make sure we're streaming, nice. Like I ordered a comments, for OBS, you might have to rearrange the capture window since you, I'm just reading the comments right now, since you changed resolution, seems to be blown up really, capture window, capture window. I guess you can open Twitch chat only on your phone or tablet, oh okay, got to sleep for work, see you later, see you later. Lucky bunny, so how does it say, rearrange the capture window, since you changed the resolution, seems to blow up, so capture window, capture window, settings, capture window, capture window. Okay, I'll deal with this later, I'm not sure how, what that applies, we'll figure that out, okay. Thank you for the heads up, lucky bunny. So let's go to the comic book stuff, let's continue with this. So we typed in Harbinger, and it's got the titles here, okay. So if you look at titles, it's got Harbinger 1992 series, 2012 series, and all of them, let's open up the 1992 series in a different, what do you call it, tab. And then if you go here, characters, Harbinger, DC, Harbinger, these are all the different characters from different publishers that are called Harbinger, I guess. All names, cable, so there's a whole bunch of stuff. You know, it's got things from Marvel as well, point crisis, and it's got bloodshot, all the places that they appear, story names, and here I'm gonna show you what they do for people working on these things, right. So Harbinger 1992 series, it's got all the titles listed here, right. Children of the day, that's the one we're looking at. So if we click on it, Harbinger number one, right. And it's got a rating on it, right, 8.1, from 11 voters, right, we can click on the image, you get the image, and what you can do is everything underlined, you can click on, so we're gonna click on Jim Shooter, right. And there's a bio of Jim Shooter, and you can go down and find out everything, almost everything anyway, whatever's in their database that Jim Shooter has worked on, right. Like wow, wow, wow, here's some stuff that he's penciled and Jim Shooter had a pseudonym that he did so work on in Valiant as well, right. And an editor colorist, like fantastic, I mean, look at this thing, he's edited so much, he's a third longest running editor at Marvel Comics, right. And what you can do here, let's go to Harbinger 1992, if you click on this, it tells you all the issues that you wrote, right. And you can maximize all of these, anything with a plus, you can maximize, right. DC Special, hey, we're secret wars, let's go to Secret Wars, a huge part to play with Secret Wars in Marvel, Secret Wars 1995, so he worked on as a writer on basically almost all the issues of Secret Wars, right. Was this a writer? Yeah, that's the writer, okay. So fantastic website, fantastic website.  I go to comic books, I use Reddit sparingly now. There's only a handful of subreddits I go to, okay. And I go to comic books forum on Reddit, which is reddit backslash r, comic books. And I go to Valiant forum on Reddit as well, which is reddit.com backslash r, backslash valiant, okay. And those are the two forums that I, for comic books I usually go on. And I do go on VOTE as well. VOTE is another website I go to, and that has a comic book forum as well, but I just usually post on there, and it's very sparse the comments being put on there, or the links being shared on there. And once the Reddit, you know, slowly goes away, other forums will pick up, I think. So that'll be cool, okay. So let's kill that. So that's where we are. Those are the main websites that I'm using for my comic book stuff. And I thought I shared that with you, since we're doing a live stream right now. And it's perfect. And no buffering I was showing. And we've got three viewers on here. Cool. Maximum I think we have was nine, which is super cool. Hey, chichu. Good to see everything up. Ready? More messages below. Oh, more messages below. Oops, hey. What's going on? I clicked on it. We're not cool. Oh well. Okay guys, that's my little test run on live streaming. I'm not sure how long we're recording for. Wow, 28 minutes. Time flies when you're having fun. Time flies when you're having fun. Thank you everyone for checking in. Thanks for letting me sort this stuff out. Looks like it worked out well. Looks like the upgrade with the new modem, with kicking it up to the highest level. Internet that I could get my hands on is working out fine. Okay. And what we'll do, I'll announce the next live stream session. And it's gonna be, basically I believe either on the 21st or the 22nd. And what we're gonna do on that one is I'm gonna show you the bookmarks I use or the websites I use to get economic and political news. Okay, because a lot of people are asking me to do more political economic videos and stuff like this and give you guys my take on things. And again, since there's a lot of censorship going on, YouTube and stuff like that, I thought I'd show everybody what my sources, trusted sources, those are individual sources, basically that I follow around, depending wherever they are. They move around the fair bit, where what my trusted sources are, some of the new sources that I check out, some of the data that I use, right? And some of the reads that I, I have usually a folder for my bookmarks where I add on things that I wanna read and I end up reading them and stuff like that, right? So next week, I think towards the end of next week, what we'll do, we'll schedule a live stream and I'll show you guys these sources. And if we're gonna do a live stream on Twitch, you guys can ask me anything in general regarding politics and economics. And I'll play around with Twitch, see what I can do on having more access to the chat here, overlay this on top and fix up the streaming, rearrange the capture windows as you change resolution. Okay, I think the capture window is fixed up now. Okay, cool. Thanks a lot for checking in guys. Thanks a lot for viewing. I guess I'll see you guys in the next live stream, right? See you guys later. OBS. Stop streaming. Okay, let's see. Now I figured out what Lucky Bunny was saying, the streaming, it's not showing the whole, let's see if that popped up. Yeah, it's not showing the whole thing. Thank you, Lucky Bunny. I just figured out what you were talking about. So how do I change that? For OBS, you might have to rearrange capture window. Capture window, how do I arrange capture window on OBS? That's how you do it. Okay, gotta figure it out. Lucky Bunny, thank you very much, Lucky Bunny. Thank you very much. Okay guys, figure that out, awesome. I'll see you guys in the next live session.


Dude, I kind of wanted to talk about this subsplit stuff. Yeah, I was wondering How much longer do you think twitch is gonna be around? I think it's it's not looking too great. I think it's looking really good. I mean twitch is gonna be fine-ish, but it's just kind of It's a YouTube is not making very much profit from Streaming the way that they're making profit is from the videos.  Do you think this will make them profitable and then they won't go in the red? Or do you think it's just like I don't think it's enough. It's probably not enough Here's one of the biggest issues too is like this is what people are upset, right? Cuz the 70 30 deal like you if you have the 70 30 subsplit like you're lucky Like because not everybody has that They haven't been giving it out to new people for a long time Supposedly, but you have that then you're like lucky to have that to begin with but the problem is now is That YouTube has changed their base pay their base subsplit to 70 30 So so now it's like YouTube has a base 70 30 Subsplit for members to well the culture isn't there of people getting like memberships on YouTube But it's getting better and better now YouTube has added hosting to which is getting rid of hosting They want people to raid that's stupid because it like kills offline chat culture doesn't kill offline chat But it just makes it annoying why is it getting rid of posting actually because they they want people to raid Because they want people to actually go to the other person's channel, which to be fair rating usually is better But if I want to host somebody How you're having a good day you guys remember how I used to have a contract with tWitch my contract didn't get re-upped with because because of some weird stuff and then They came out with this new ad deals like we have but you can do like the 55% they am like yeah, but this is not Equal to what I was getting before and also it wasn't even available to like basically what happened was whenever Whenever I lost my contract it cut like 40% of my income, but with this new ad revenue thing, right? Yeah, but which doesn't actually bring any traffic to their site like I'm not that I'm aware of it's all this on the streamers and so the gas prices of just like Streaming in general being 50% of your income or of what you would be earning just 50% of the entire Ordeal it just means that that's how expensive it is to stream. Yeah, I mean I get why they for them But I'm confused is it is it that really how it is it's pretty bad The cost of streaming is actually really bad if we wanted to just like run our own streams like on our own server and stuff and just People would just like log in to like some other website to get it It would be pretty expensive. No, they own the servers. Yeah, but like they own the servers But like they don't to be fair.  They pull it out of Jeff Bezos ass Is YouTube live make money or is that being back for the rest of my YouTube makes well Google owns YouTube and Amazon owns twitch that doesn't necessarily mean twitch has all of Amazon's money It's not like you have one bank account and then all the money is there and you can just spend it However, like you have budgeting like twitch has to get more budget from Amazon for stuff Like it's not really a specifically twitch problem, but it's a problem for twitch, but it's not caused by twitch It's the problem is is Amazon needs to give twitch more money But then Amazon doesn't want to give twitch more money because they're like, well, this is not They're like if they're not profitable and it's like why would you keep investing into it? Okay, let's talk about some of the stats which he's in their posts the most obvious CDN cost Using those fries to make cost cleansing twitch is done for years now. It's misleading But not the way many streamers think broadcast cost 200 hours times 2 he goes 400 20k hours of HD viewing is 7 cents 1,400 20,000 hours full HD viewing hours is 14 cents of 2,800 so a total of 1800 to 3,200 And that assumes 100% NA traffic mixture. This is for a hundred CCV to twitch stream Oh having more viewers cost them more money Yeah, I think if twitch gets rid of prime subs right now long story short I think twitch is in a position where if they get rid of prime subs there's Effectively no reason to stream on twitch instead of youtube because even right now youtube has better. It's got Higher bit rate that the tech is just way better and I mean the community is on twitch, but it could very well not be you do chat so sucks Yeah, but so does twitch chat look at all the extensions that we have for twitch chat The people act like youtube chat sucks, but twitch chat also sucks like we have we have 7 TV We have BTTV we have all kinds of stuff that we get anyway that stuff exists for youtube youtube has 7 TV 2 now Are you thinking about switching? Dude, I already switched this stream is on youtube right now. No, um, I'm just saying like it's it's starting to get to that point now for me It's like Twitch has better like support individual like partner support twitch has much better individual partner support than youtube does by far So there is that and then there's twitch prime, but youtube has like There's just so much better. Are you banned from streaming on youtube? Not anymore I was one of our started streaming on twitch You think talking about it is enough twitch won't change unless they see hitting their bottom line Ultimately, they're a San Francisco based tech company and all those companies have the same mindset Well, I mean all companies have the same mindset, right? They're a company and they have to make money, right? And I get that it makes sense, but I think the 70 30 deal is like a big They want people to run more ads and the truth is this is like I know ads suck I get it, but this is this is the truth ads exist to pay to have big companies pay For the content that you watch and and you don't have to and if you don't want to watch ads Then you get a sub you get a turbo you get something like that. That's the truth, you know, I still don't get any ads on twitch Hey, you know, it's like TV, right? Hi. I mean I started streaming on youtube for the first time Like whenever I started streaming on twitch, I was like, oh, like I don't want to watch youtube streams Whatever, I knew even back then even five years ago whenever I started streaming YouTube did a lot of things better than twitch on the back end watching youtube streams does not bother me Why? I mean it looks better. It looks if anything it looks the same Yeah, it looks it looks way better. It's kind of weird because it's just like It's weird to think that there's a whole like world and also I'm not even sure how to access the streaming category on youtube Yeah, but Well, it's youtube's because every new user is supposed to know how to do things Yeah, but if you sub to somebody in there live like it just it shows right away. How do you find them live? Yeah So we're on here Tim the tatman is live. Oh Subscriptions, okay, how do you find something new? Where's the discovery on switch? Twitch has no discover bill. Okay, let's say that I go on twitch I see an entire thing of like just chatting and all these different sections were the sections Where do I find someone new?   This is a new monomer for two is then beta right but like is this really that I don't think this is bad at all Like you can you can scan you can go and you can you can actually scroll through the body my main question No, what was your main question? Where are the categories? Where do I find people? This is not everyone who's live. There's way more Where are they? It used to be gaming dot youtube.com. There is why I'm like weird When you go to gaming dot youtube.com the first thing you see is to just collapsing It's Ludwig's video. Oh my gosh, that is so funny and then and then critical huge They don't have just chatting yes all the game sections top-live games dude that is so funny You to gaming dot youtube.com slash games But not all of them. Yeah, this is it. This is the sections I was the biggest while streamer on on YouTube five years ago streaming private servers, and I had like 500 viewers. There is no wow section on YouTube Nobody streams wow on YouTube


What is the Teach and Learn with Georgia program for teaching English in Georgia? Teach and Learn with Georgia is a program initiated by the Georgian government in 2010. The program places native English, French and German speakers into public schools across the country with the aim of improving foreign language proficiency amongst students, teachers and the wider community. The Teach and Learn with Georgia TLG program was set up in 2010 with the intention of improving the country's foreign language skills and to promote greater ties with the global community. Sponsored by the Georgian Ministry of Education and Science, TLG actively recruits native English, French and German speakers to teach in public schools throughout the country on a voluntary basis. While the primary goal is language teaching within a school environment, the program also has a strong focus on cultural exchange. The basics The TLG program is open to native speakers of English, French and German who are open-minded and highly motivated to make a positive difference in an unfamiliar environment. Contracts are for one academic year during which time you will teach alongside local language teachers in primary age classrooms. A typical week involves 30 working hours from Monday to Friday, which includes teaching, lesson planning and extracurricular activities. Participants are also expected to provide three hours of language teaching per week for their host family. The minimum education level is a BA or a BS in Education, Linguistics or similar or a BA-BS in any other discipline plus teaching experience. Students in their final year of a bachelor's degree in Education, Linguistics or similar discipline are also eligible to apply. A clean criminal record check and medical clearance are both required. Applicants who apply as either French or German native speakers will need to demonstrate an English language ability that is equivalent to the B1 level of the common European framework of reference for languages. Any additional teaching qualifications, classroom experience or voluntary experience with young people will be taken into account during the recruitment process. For further information, please visit the official TLG website www.tlg.gov.ge Benefits As TLG is a voluntary program, it does not attract teachers who are simply looking to earn a high salary. The main attraction for many is that it offers a unique opportunity to gain valuable classroom experience and personal fulfillment in a region that is a little off the beaten track. Included in the contract are the following extra benefits. Monthly stipend of 750 Georgian Lari, 400 Georgian Lari after-tex and host family deduction. Paid airfare in and out of Georgia. Room and board with a host family. Medical insurance. Paid winter holidays.


Welcome to Toffy TV, it is my three things from Chelsea 1-1 and unexpected points at Stamford Bridge for Everton tonight with something like 11-13 players missing from the squad tonight. Everton was still able to go to Chelsea and pick up a point and it's a big point. Exo one on the board and the way they did it, they did it in with a battle and performance with young players playing and give the travelling Evertonians something to cheer about at the end. The first thing we want to talk about is the goals we give away and where we may be without doing such silly things. Again tonight we've caused our own downfall with a goal. When you look at it tonight it's not so obvious as what it was at the weekend but we break up to the edge of the air box with the corey and we just play a simple ball out of Anthony Gordon. We're getting men in the box, we have still a possession in the ball and he gets caught in possession and then we've committed so many men that when they spring us we never ever recover from that thing. It's not really about tonight, tonight was just another choice. The manatee you could see was absolutely furious with the corey, with the ball ending up in the net because up to that point we'd worked really hard to stay in the game. They were the better teams and I'm mistaken about that but we'd worked really hard to stay in the game and then you'd go and do something like that. I think when I'm talking about stop giving silly goals away I'm talking about over the whole season, we've done it consistently. The manager is, it is instruction. I don't think so because we've done this under other managers. These players have to take responsibility at some stage. I think if we stop giving cheap goals away and again tonight I'm really pushing the envelope here with this one. I'm stretching it a little bit because tonight it was a poor decision by the corey and it did end up in the back of our net because of it. But Sunday against Palace we gifted them I'd say all three goals and we've got to stop doing that. We did it with Watford, we've done it with other teams. If we can do that we give ourselves half a chance in a game because just that decision making that I think we need to improve on. If we do that we'll be all right especially as we get players back. You could understand why the manager was furious because we have an opportunity where we're getting into the penalty area with the ball at the other end at 0-0.  You've got to make the right decisions. Second thing I want to talk about is Jared Branthwaith who I thought was exceptional tonight. Having played in the Premier League all season he played at Huddersfield in the Carabao Cup. Obviously went on loan last season or the second half of last season but he come in tonight and I thought he was brilliant. Very composed, very competitive, stuck to the task all night. Strong in the tackle and obviously pops up with a very very important equaliser. He's still got things he needs to polish up on. There's no question about that. He's got rough edges but he's a young lad coming into the team, young centre back and apparently the manager said after the game that he's not going anywhere on January on loan. Which for him is a big thing to hear because I would suggest that performances like that catapult you up into the manager's thinking. If he might look at Branthwaith and think this fella is more reliable than Mason Holgate say or certainly more reliable than Yeri Meiner we all know how good a defender Yeri Meiner is but he's never fit then what you do. So I think Branthwaith has done himself no harm tonight. Whether Everton carry on with three at the back who knows but I think he's done himself no harm tonight. I just thought he was excellent and for him to get the goal as well. And he ends as a point I think that capped off a brilliant display for him. I give him man of the match, he was my man of the match just pipping Jordan Pickford. But brilliant to see. Great to see young players playing full of energy and enthusiasm. I'll come on to that in a minute but he definitely kind of epitomised that. To come in out the cold like he has done and give a performance like that it gives you great hope when you're looking at the squad. We know the state of the squad. We know there's players that shouldn't be here but when you've got younger players like that coming through and doing well that gives you hope that if you buy in the right areas and you add younger players with energy you can keep yourself in any game. Any game and it's exactly what Everton did tonight. Branthwaith was kind of like the shine and light in that. So moving on to my third and final point is the attitude of the players. And I thought tonight the attitude was very good. I didn't think it was very good on Sunday. I thought too easily on Sunday we were pushed out the way or they just looked hungrier than us. Their attitude shone through on Sunday and ours were poor. But tonight we've gone with a scratch team let's be honest about it. John Jo Kenny's coming and started right back for the first time in the Premier League for a good while 2020 I think sometime then. He played. You look at Jarrod Branthwaith who I've just been speaking about coming in. Mason Holgate in there and he's not being in of late. You go into midfield and we've got a two ago Mason Decore. You've got a whoa being there and then you've got Ellis Sim starting off from for the first time he's ever been involved in a Premier League game being on the pitch for the Premier League game. So he knows full evidence debut and he's starting. You've got Anthony Gordon who compared to these lads is like a seasoned pro now still there. So when you look at that team and look at the way it was set up you see that with that little bit of youth and that little bit of enthusiasm in there you know you can you can get results by sticking with teams. They're a good side Chelsea OK. They had a couple missing themselves and they're not in the greatest of form but it was still a daunting task. You go in there it was you were looking and thinking do we need this you know seven defeats out of eight and we're going to stand for bridge and he just had a big win at the weekend against Leeds you know injury time winner. And we're going with a scratch team and those lads enthusiasm and commitment to doing you know working for the cause. We've seen Sims come off after an hour and dobb and come on and work probably was even maybe even more. Well he was more impactful than what Sims did. Sims did a good job. He was up on his own. It was a period of the game where we were under the cost. He was getting older very much as he could and letting it off bringing people into the game. He looks to me like he's a penalty box centre forward. He's not going to skip pass people. We know that anyway. He's back to go get on the end of things maybe in the penalty area but he did OK. Gordon worked his socks off one of his best games forever and I would suggest came up with an assist as well obviously off the free kick ran his socks off. Branthwait have talked about Kenny give a good performance. So those lads the attitude of them was excellent and that carried the team along way. Gabamon come on and worked hard and he was OK. And then we seen Tyler on y angle come on for the last five or six minutes as well and that youthful exuberance getting back. Getting back goalside sticking to the plan has got everything to point tonight. And madly madly we could have even nicked it with better decision making which would have been bizarre. But you know on we had a couple of counter attacks Dobbin should have pulled the trigger on one. He tried to dummy the lad. He should have just got a shot away. You know and we've had a couple of breakaways where we haven't played the right ball but it just shows you that freshening stuff up can give you a different inputters. And I think every you know I can't speak for everybody but I imagine a lot of Evertonians watch that. I'm like you know what this isn't a great team. We've put out by any stretch. Let's see how we get on and they will have been buoyed by the performances of Job and Pick for the goal. It was brilliant. Brandthwaite you know watching Sims you know trying to get older ball seeing his face touches in the Premier League. Seeing how go go and seeing Dobbin when he come on. And that enthusiasm rubbing off on other players and I thoroughly enjoyed it rather than some of the dross we've seen of later. The attitude of the players can be like that for every game. Everton will be fine this season. They'll be fine but comes from the manager as well. He's got to be prepared to take chances with people. He's done it tonight but he's got to be prepared to continue this trend throughout the season. Give the young glad to go as well if things aren't working. You've got to use them in your squad and give them and see exactly what happens. You never know. You never know. Their enthusiasm can rub off and create things for other players so I just thought that was excellent tonight. That's my three things. We've got a good draw. Let's leave it at that. Make sure you check out all your matriac and stuff. Give the video a thumbs up. Subscribe if you haven't. Have a great night. See you later.


Hello everybody, welcome back to RetroTech. Today I've got a brand new episode of CRT MarketWatch. Now CRT MarketWatch is going to focus on pro CRT monitor sales this time between the middle of November about November 14th up to December 17th. So this is very relative and new information. All these sales do come from online sales pretty much from eBay. And today I'm actually happy in this episode to expand our coverage of monitors out to just more than Sony PVMs and BVMs. So again, we're looking at pro monitor sales on eBay and these are in North America only. So if you're outside of North America, these aren't going to be sales you'll probably be able to see. However, if you search the sales data for those dates and what is sold on eBay, you should be able to find many of the listings that I'm going to go through today. The sales prices I'm talking about, they will include all costs for shipping. And then there will be many notes that I'll go over dealing with the conditions of the sold monitors. And of course we're going to go through then and highlight some specific sales that happened over the last 30 days. But there were just a ton of monitors sold almost 100 and I was able to find almost 130 pro video monitor sales. So let's just go ahead now and jump right into it. Please though, if you're new to the channel and you haven't clicked subscribe, please do that. And also like the video if you do like the content. This was a unanimously well liked video for the first series. So hopefully this video can do just as well. So one of the first monitors that we're going to be covering today and it's one of the new monitors is Ikegami CRT monitor sales. Now, I was surprised to find that over the last month we've had six different sales for Ikegami CRT monitors and these are all working CRT monitors. So just want to go through some of the highlights here. We've got this 1505 RA, which is actually in the picture. And then another 1517R, those are about 14 inch monitors that you're looking at. All these monitors from what I could tell were just analog only. So they are still pretty pricey around the same prices as comparable. It may be even a little bit higher than comparable PVMs. And then you got a couple of 20 inch ones. And those sales were what you'd expect for probably 20 inch ones. You got one going for $425 and then a nicer 20 inch one going for $600. So that's just the overall sales that have happened in Ikegami. Remember that Ikegami is a very high quality CRT monitor that you can use for RGB and other things, just as you do with any other pro video monitor. So we've also got quite a few sales for Panasonic CRT monitors. These again are all going to be pro level monitors with some type of, well these tubes are all shadow mass tubes, the Ikegami and then the Panasonics. But just notice here that these are, the prices are all over the place, but most of them you can see from the sizes over here are going to be nine inches and then 13 inch monitors. So the nine inches are what you'd expect between $70 and $100. And then those 13 inch monitors, now those are going to be comparable again to an earlier Sony PVM like a 1344Q. Those 1390Ys are and because they're going to have all, or most of the adjustments are going to have to be done internally in those monitors. But there's still a pretty good deal for a 13 inch RGB monitor. You could get those for around that $100 mark if you get a good lucky day. Now somebody did have to pay $250 for one and I'm sure that was a very nice condition one. So that's probably a high end on what you'd expect to see, but those are another monitor you can look for and keep an eye out for other than Sony's. And then another one that had just an unbelievable amount of sales data this month was JVC monitors. These are all CRTs again. The very first one is the H1950CG, which is the 19 inch version of that monitor that I have done a full video series on the CG monitor there. That's only the 480i and 240p version. However, it's a beautiful tube. It's over 700 lines. So that's closer to what I'd say maybe like a 14M4 would be, or I'm sorry, a 20M4 would be closer to that 1950CG. And so that one went for $470. Then you've got quite a few 9 inch models that all sold. Some of those, these are these 9 UAs are pretty much composite only monitors. That's this one down here. I actually used to have one of these. They're nice and heavy duty, but they are just composite only. And then you've got some other 9 inch monitors here. And the prices range on those. Some of these can do some more and that's why they're getting up at these $100 range. But there's also quite a few, you know, these ones were lower end JVC monitors, pretty much S video style. These 13 inches that were selling for around $80, $60. However, there's a lot of data here. I mean, it's like 12 more monitors that sold this month that were just JVCs. So now we can start getting into some of the higher end monitors. Again, these are getting back now. These are almost Sonys. These are the Olympus line of monitors, which Olympuses were actually just pretty much Sony PVMs, 20M2s and 14M2s. They just got rebranded for Olympus. So Olympus could attach them to things like different scopes and lab equipment, microscopes, different things like that in the lab environment. That's what you generally see an Olympus monitor attached to. And again, they look exactly the same except for the branding on them. So we've got a couple of sales in November here. First one was $245. The middle one was $200. And then the last was $227. So you're looking right at between 200 and 250 for that monitor. And that's a great deal. It's slightly less than what you'd expect to pay for the 14M2 simply because people aren't searching for the Olympus as much. And they don't know that the Olympus is the same thing, exactly the same thing as a 14M2. I just want to let you know that the November 19th purchase there for $200 was mine that I bought that you saw the unboxing for. So that was that sale. And like I said, there were a couple 203s that were sold. And these are generally 20M2s. And most of the time these monitors were made into the 2000s, usually like mid 2000s, 2003, four, five. So they're again, a really great quality monitor. Now one of these was just got an incredible deal at $170. And even the one at $245 and $375, those are generally a lot lower than a working 20M2 will go for because just people aren't looking as much for these Olympus monitors. So that's something that you can always keep an eye out for. If you're really looking for a nice 609 PVM style monitor that you might be able to get a slightly better deal on, one of these Olympus monitors, then just straight buying the Sony PVM version. And I'm going to jump now into some of the BVM sales. Now there weren't a huge amount of BVM sales for the month, but these were again most of them. And the first we've got a D9, which is just the little nine inch version of the multi format D series monitor. And that would sold for $130, which is pretty typical. That one will sell for around $130, $150 in general. And then you've got a couple of 14 inch H1U and an H5U. Now the H1U, I've got it highlighted a little bit later in the video because it was just in a wonderful shape monitor, very low hours, great big bundle of things that came with it. So I'll show you that later on in the video. And then you'll notice that D14 H5U, that one actually had probably a bad tube in it. It was listed with over 60,000 hours on the original tube. So whoever bought that one most likely was going to have to replace the tube in it. And that's why it sold for a little bit less money than it should have really. If it would have had a good tube, it would have sold for a lot more than $363 most likely. And then we've got an A series sale, A14 F5U for $169 and you can expect those A series to be a lot lower. That was one that I bought again, that $169 and that one did not include any of the video input cards. But it was a full working good condition monitor with actually low hours on it. So again, those D series listings were quite unique. And there weren't a lot of BVM sales this month, but there were still some. I've got some other BVM sales I'm going to talk about too at the end of the video and the highlights. All right, so now we're getting into the PVMs. Man, there were a ton of PVMs sold this month. First off, I counted a total of 91 PVMs that I have recorded and did the sales figures for. Some of them were just sporadic one time sales of really, really rare and off branded monitors that, and I say rare, but they weren't monitors that you really want to use for anything.  So I didn't include those couple, there was like two or three of those, but everything else is tallied into here.  Okay, so the 8220s and 21s, there were nine sales of those, they averaged about $75 a piece. And that's this monitor on the top with Grand Theft Auto on it. And that again is a composite only monitor. Still a great little Trinitron tube generally made in the early 90s. And again, just composite on there. The 8040 and 41 under that had five sales. That's $93, but that adds support for as video as well as an audio speaker on board. The 822, 8220 and 8221, they do not have a speaker either. But the 8040 and 41s, they have an onboard speaker, they support composite and its video. So $93 for those. Now you jump up again a little bit more and you get to the 8042 or 8044s. And those generally have cues after them. There were 15 sales that so a very popular monitor sale, those are generally used as bench monitors for like testing and labs or modders or anybody who's working on consoles and wants to get a video signal. Those are very good for testing. They sell for about $130. And then there is a 9L series and an L2 and an L3 and sometimes even an L1 that are in that nine inch or eight inch format, but they're just the 9L, they're later PVMs. And there were four sales of that as our were $131 on average each sale. So what I did was I added all the sales up on those and averaged them out for you so you could get a kind of an idea of what are good prices on those. And again, all those were listed as pretty much working. That's almost 30 total at 29 eight inch monitors, totally $3,600 in sales last month. So it's a pretty staggering number of just smaller PVMs that are being bought and moved. Now there were a couple of 14M2s and 14M4Us that were sold. This is still a very popular monitor. And it's a good reason because it's one of the later built ones. It has a great service menu. It has the ability to have component and composite and RGB and S video. And they have a lot of times they'll even have not generally in the M4 and M2, they will not generally have a switchable second input, they will just have one input for RGB that you have to switch between RGB and component. But there were 14 or seven sales of the 14M2s at 279 an average. So they were somewhere less than that somewhere higher than that obviously. But that was the overall average of those seven sales. And then if you're going to add another, you know, $75 about to get up to the 14M4U, which there were eight sales. So right on seven and eight, 15 sales total of that monitor. And the only difference on that M4 and M2 is the M4 has the 800 lines of resolution. And the two only has 600 lines. So you're just getting a little bit more resolution on the M4U than the M2U. But again, both very popular monitors almost $4,800 in sales this month from just this PVM line. Let's talk about some other 14 inch PVM sales. And these are all going to be RGB monitors. So not something that doesn't include RGB. So we've got 1344Q. And there were three sales of that. And I really bring this one up because this was pretty much the cheapest RGB monitor that is a PVM that we're selling up in good condition. And they were still reasonably cheap. They were all around the same amount of money. It wasn't as if one was really cheap. They were all around that $155 mark. So that's a great deal. Now, we'll tell you that monitor does not have an onboard service menu. It's generally made in the extremely early 90s. There will be sometimes a speaker on them, but that speaker will only support or go through composite and S video won't work on the RGB line. And then that RGB line generally is not switchable to component as it is later on down the line. So again, it's a very early RGB monitor. However, it still uses a 600 line resolution trinitron tube in it. So it's still a really good picture. If you get it adjusted correctly, it's just generally, it's an older monitor and not one that people are generally looking for. And 1351Q is different. It does add a service menu in that one. So those ones are a little bit more valuable. It does have a lower line count on the picture, but still with that newer monitor, it will be a little bit more money. So that was $335 average. We had a 1353MD, which again is a great monitor. It's got the switchable inputs for component and RGB. And that one sold for 255, 1354Q. That one is a very popular monitor still just like the 14M2. It's pretty much the predecessor to the 14M2 sold for 270. So slightly lesser than the 14M2, but it could pretty much be compared to those other sales up there. And the 14L2 is a little bit the same as the 14M2. Only it's the L series, which means it's a little bit newer. It's the newest of the PVMs that were available would be the L series. And that one sold for a little bit more, of course, because it's newer at $400 each sale.  And that's like your N series, like N5, N1. And then the L series also has an L1 that only does RGB or does not do RGB or component. It leaves that off and only does composite and S video. Now these can be used as replacement tubes. So they are very good at, you know, if you need a tube in your 14 inch PVM and it's busted, you can generally use a tube for one of these as a replacement tube. But nine sales averaging $130 almost each. So a lot of these monitors are still selling. And if you run into them, they are still worth a little bit of money, not as much as an RGB version, but they can be modded for RGB. So a lot of people are still buying and trading this in an L series S video monitor. I want to go through and show you now some 20 inch sales really quickly. Again, this is a very popular monitor, not a huge amount of sales on this one this month, but still quite a few. We've got the 20 m twos and m for you. So same thing as a 14 inch, you know, m four and m two, except it's a 20 inch screen or actually a 19 inch screen but labeled as a 20 inch screen. And the prices are pretty much similar in there for the, you know, I mean, look at the 20 m two, though, you've got a pretty big difference there between one bit 450 and 625. So that's a lot to do with condition and how much you want to get the monitor at the time, whether you're going to pan more or not. And then if you look at the m for you, that's something that you could definitely shop for and probably save some more money. Again, that's going to depend on the condition of the monitor, but the prices fluctuate a lot in there from 500 to $700. So you still might end up paying 500 or at least $500 for one, but it's better than paying the $700 for the similar monitor. If you get stuck into a bidding war or if you're come on to eBay when there's only one 20 m four you listed, you could use generally wait for that monitor to have a couple more show up and they show up at a better price sometimes, but just that's one to keep an eye out, both of those because the prices will fluctuate on those 20 inches. Other Sony PVM sales of note. First we have 20 30s. There's a couple sales of 20 30s are right at $530 a piece shipped, well $531 still a great monitor that's commanding a little bit more value than it used to in years past. Then we got the 25 30, which actually just recently sold and that one sold for 950. That's pretty high price for that one. And then 29 50 sold for 750. So that's a pretty good price for working 29 50. If they were able to get it shipped safely to them. And there were 14 L five sold this month. And honestly, if you're looking for an L five 14 L five, or quite a few of them going for really good deals right now, I'm not really sure why maybe there's not as many people looking for that monitor. But $400 average for 14 L five is a pretty darn good price, considering that's a multi format monitor. And generally should be in the 600 to $700 range, if it's in really good condition. There was one 20 L five that was sold recently. And that one was sold for 13 68 $1368. So that was a good condition 20 L five, or at least listed as one. And again, 13 68 delivered. So still a Grail monitor for people that are looking for these and commanding, of course, over $1200, which is what I'm pretty much expecting at this point in 2019. I'm going to go through now and talk about some of these highlighted sales for the month. Now the first one here, you might recognize most of you will this was the 13 53 MD that did sell as an auction from Retro Tech. But you have to remember this one was completely restored. There really wasn't any other PVM listed all month that sold that was as restored as this one. So it is a really unique outlier. And that's why it was a lot more than the other ones, but still overall a good deal. Because if, for example, if I went and bought one of these decent condition monitors for $200 to $300, all the services that I did on this monitor time and parts and things like that would have added up to well over $300 and extra labor costs and and expenses put into a monitor like this. So that's one thing that, you know, that makes it a little bit better deals. It's just rare. Nobody really does what I'm doing right now with these not many there are a couple and we do have one more restoration. And we're going to go through that next. Not first, first off, we'll go through this. This was the BVFD series sale that was the 14 H1U. I wanted to go through this one real quickly because it was just such a great bundle deal. You could see everything that it came with again, only had less than 3000 hours on the tube, which is just a fantastic mass practically new. It came with the 129X card. So if you just consider the accessories of the tube, the 129X card, and even the bezel and the box and the external bro control remote, all those things pieced individually would have probably cost the not the same more than what this monitor wound up going for. So whoever got this one really did get a great deal at even at 643 almost $650. It's a fantastic deal for a multi format monitor with such practically new and in a flight case with every accessory you need to get going and using it right away. So that was another one I wanted to highlight. And then this was the last one I wanted to highlight. I talked about there being one other monitor that was listed this month that was restored. And that was this one which was a BVM 20 F1U. It sold for $1,900 almost. And it was restored by Save On Pat. So you can understand again why the certain monitors that are restored by a couple of individuals who have experience with these are going for more money. And that's why they are the outliers of the group because they'll pretty much be good forever. I can imagine that whoever got this monitor is very pleased with it and will be able to use this for as long as they want. Because again, we all know that Save On Pat knows how to adjust these things anyway, that they need to be adjusted. But that was the pretty much highlighted monitor sale this month. Just a gigantic sale, almost $2,000. Now there were some monitors that were sold as repair monitors. And that's we're going to finish up tonight. These were four different monitors. It's actually an Ikigami that was sold on December 2 for only $110 listed as parts. A 14M4U that was sold on December 14 for $228 that was listed as parts. Now the 20L5, I read it, it did turn on but the tube had a lot of scratches on it. So you know that might have been a good deal because somebody could get in there and that one's got an anti-glare layer on it, that tube. So you might just be able to pull the anti-glare layer off and get a 20L5 for $500 and not have to do anything else to it. So that was actually a really good deal, whoever got that most likely. And then there was a 1351Q which was sold for $120 but it wasn't working too. So you could expect, you know, that's pretty much scrap monitor parts sale for $120. But that's pretty much it. That's all the sales data that I have for this month. And again, thanks for watching. Please let me know what you think. Did you guys buy any of these monitors or did you happen to buy monitors somewhere else? Please leave your sale information in the comments if you'd like to so we can add it to the records because I am going and I'm keeping a record of these sales numbers so we can track this every month with MarketWatch. And again, thank you guys everybody for watching this with me today and I'll see you all next time with some more retro content.


If these two things touch, many aspects are cleared out in you for that period of time.  Yoga is not about fitness. Fitness is just one consequence. The important thing is to get the right geometry of life because physical universe is all geometry. Why is that wherever you go to, you know, kind of preach or talk about stuff, you sit in a particular position, you know, with sandals removed from your left leg, left leg up and right leg on the ground intact. Is it your style or is it the way that one person should sit? What is called as hatha yoga, the physical posture is, it is about manipulating the body in such a way that you get your certain geometric perfection that your geometry is aligned with the larger geometry of creation so that you're always in sync, you're never off. And how balanced you are, how clearly you see things and how well you do things simply depends on how much you are in sync with everything else around you. Whether it's people or trees or life or just space, are you in sync with it or not? We'll decide how smoothly, how friction-free is your function in the world. Now, I don't sit like this all the time, only when I speak. How I'm sitting, if I have to explain, there are many aspects to it. One simple aspect is the left heel. The left heel is, there is a point on the left heel that today the medical sciences are calling it as the Achilles, you heard of that? You heard of the man? Achilles? You heard of the man, you saw the movie? You didn't see the movie? Troy? You didn't see? Very innocent boy. So you put your Achilles to what is called as muladhara or the perinium in your body. If these two things touch, many aspects are cleared out in you for that period of time.  You heard that Achilles was killed because an arrow was shot to his heel. You don't believe if somebody hurts your heel you will die, isn't it so? But Achilles died that way and there's another person who died that way in India, way before him. Yesterday was his birthday, Krishna Janmashtami, he also died this way. What this is trying to tell you is they were killed in an expert way, not just letting you throw it or breaking your head, but just putting a point at the Achilles so they had to die. So there is a certain system, energy system in the body. If that point of Achilles is in touch with you muladhara, when you sit like this, there is a certain balance that you don't take any sides. See, all of us have our own opinions, ideas, ideologies, stuff, our own experiences of life.   All this is because you're constantly taking positions of your own. But if you really want to know life, the most important thing is you don't take any position, you're willing to look at everything fresh every moment of your life, absolutely fresh every moment of your life. This is very difficult for people to understand.  I still don't have a single opinion about them. Only when I need to do some work, I may look at their competence and stuff, but I don't have a single opinion about anybody who's around me for such a long time. By now you should have formed your opinions, but I don't because that is the essence of spiritual process that we're constantly looking at every life as a possibility. There is of course a distance between possibility and reality. Some will have the courage and commitment to travel that distance, some will not have the courage and commitment to travel that distance, but every life is a possibility. If you want to keep that possibility open, you never ever form an opinion about anybody of any sort. Good, bad, ugly, you don't form these opinions, you simply look at them right now. How are they right now, this moment? That's all that matters to me. How you were yesterday is not my business. How you may be tomorrow, let's see. Tomorrow must be created, not concretized right now, isn't it? It's a certain geometry of the body. If you manage the geometry of the body well, you must… I'm telling you, right now people… the western cultures are going about propagating, yoga is another stretching exercise. Instead of that you can do pilates, instead of that you can do boxing, instead of that you can play tennis.  Yoga is not about fitness. Fitness is just one consequence. The important thing is to get the right geometry of life, because physical universe is all geometry. Now this building is standing here, whether how long it will stand, whether it will fall on our head today or will it stand for a long time, essentially depends on how geometrically perfect it is. The same goes for the body, the same goes for the planetary system, the same goes for the universe, the same goes for everything. Planet… Planet Earth is going around the sun, not with a steel cable attached to it, just perfection of geometry, isn't it? If little off geometry, if it happens, it's gone forever. And that's true with you also.  It's very important at an early age, you do the right things to bring a right sense of geometry. Now you become competent to go through life. Those people who are thinking only good things should happen to them, obviously they're unfit for life. Because if you do not know how to go through harsh situations, well, joyfully, then you will avoid all possibilities, isn't it? You will avoid all great possibilities of life simply because you want to avoid little bit of difficulty. Only when you're geometrically in a certain state of congruence, then you're willing to go through any situation no matter what it is.
