Hello everyone. In this video I am going to talk about all the games that I've been playing lately. I play a lot of games and you know that. I probably start a new game twice a week or more and often I rotate between several games at the same time and people I talk with, they don't understand how I can do that. Most people, on the other hand, they are like one game at a time. I am several games at a time and everywhere and all around. Several different genres and types of games just for what kind of mood I'm in currently and stuff like that. Sometimes I'm in the mood for 3D platformers, you know. Sometimes I'm in the mood for super mindless games like hack and slash and moose saw titles and other times I'm really into grinding in harvest moon types of games. You know. So what I have been playing lately. First of all I'm gonna start off with Cineblade Chronicles Definitive Edition. I am near the end of the game. I am loving the game. This game is a 9 out of 10 game. 9 and a half. I can say so already before I've even written my review. Yeah, I haven't written my review. I started but I was like... I take my sweet time with my reviews because I'm in no rush on this channel. I'm slow on everything and I do things when it feels right and when I'm ready. But I can say already that I am obsessed. It is so good. There are so many side quests and that is what I love doing in that game. Grinding all the side quests and this time around it looks so much better and crisper and all the animations are better and new. I can already tell everyone that is watching my channel that that is a game that I will be highly recommending in my official review when that comes around. Now another game that I have been playing along. It is actually Story of Seasons Friends of Mineral Town. I have gotten that review code way ahead of time and I love when companies give me a review code like a month before the embargo. The release date when I am allowed to publish my review. That happened also when I got my time at Porsche for the Switch. I had like a month's time to create my review. I'm loving that. Thank you Marvelous. What I can say about the game is really good. It is really really really good. You are gonna love it. Slow start, slow progression. That is the entire point of a good Harvest Moon game. So many lists and so many things to keep track of and do and farm and grind and I'm looking forward to reviewing that game. I'm gonna write my review really soon. I've already gotten to the second year in the calendar of the Harvest Moon. Now another game that I have been touching in on. I actually have this in my backlog and it is Elder Scrolls Online on PlayStation 4. You know that game. Now they have a new expansion. It is called Greymoor and it takes place in Western Skyrim. The area around Solitude to be specific here. I have not played that too much yet. But I have been walking around and looking at all the nostalgic places that are now recreated in Elder Scrolls Online and Solitude looks amazing. Fabulous. Good. It's searching nostalgia trip. So that is something Skyrim fans are gonna get a kick out of. But it is on PC. It's not on Switch, you know. It is on PC, Xbox One and I play on PlayStation 4. Now a game that I found. Actually I have had this game on my wishlist and it was on sale. And I was like, I don't remember putting this on my wishlist. I don't remember ever seeing this game. But then I saw it was on sale and I was like, oh, that looks cool. It has a demo. It is called Sword Art Online Fatal Bullet. It is just a cute colorful game.  That is the story. The story is that a group of friends are playing an MMO and you are controlling your character within the MMO, like World of Warcraft Sora game. And they are like, the dialogue is like all over the place. Like, let's go raiding. Have you checked your stats? We should go and grind some loot. Such a nerdy dialogue. I got experience from this and that. And like, all these MMO terms are in the dialogue. So much fun. It is repetitive and grindy, but it is a mindless game.  Anyways, I bought this game, but I also got a review code of this game. So I have bought it and gotten a review code. I am giving away this game, actually. So giveaway. I thought that would be cool. So check out the Gleam link in the description and top comment. I think I'm going to do it that way, yeah. So good luck on that. Thanks to Bandai Namco, I am having this contest. It's a cute game, but don't expect too much. And some other games that I have recently just bought, that is Ease 8, like Remoso of Dana. I have played that game on my PlayStation 4. And it is such a nice game. Such a nice, unique game. As it was on sale on the Switch, I felt like, I want to go back to that world, that music, that gameplay, the characters, the island and the mystery, the story, the entire game. Ease 8, like Remoso of Dana, is definitely deserving of way more love from the mainstream and casual gamers in everyone than it is getting. So Ease 8, it is a good game. And I highly recommend it to everyone. I can stand by that. Super fun gameplay. Another game that I got is a review code. But the guy told me that I didn't have to review it. I just got it. Divinity Original Sin 2. I have a friend called Raimon and he has put hundreds of hours into this game. It's highly complex, high fantasy, high RPG, if you know what I mean, strategy game. But it's so dialogue and story heavy.  So it's more like a game that you can immerse yourself into. The characters and the lore and the setting in the world. It is my first impression of the game. It is unlike anything I've ever played. It's very unique. It's highly complex and big. So yeah, those were the games that I have recently played. Now I think we are going to unbox some packages that I've gotten sent to my PO box. And that is including a really big package from 2K Games. The guys behind Bioshock, Borderlands and XCOM. Those are games that are recently dropped to the Switch. I am planning on picking up the Borderlands games, even though I have them already on PC and on PlayStation 4. So this will be my third time picking them up. But they are good, obviously. Naver 7. Let's unbox stuff. Hello. I have two packages from subscribers of the channel. And I have one really big package from 2K Games. Oh, geist. This is like when Tiny Hat says it's too big. How are we going to do it? It's too big. Oh my God. Oh my God.  Hope you are saving well to celebrate the launch of some of the biggest 2K titles. We are sending you a package to enjoy. Let's see what it is. So the first item is a hat. Some Switch decals. I like that, actually. Yet another box within the box that was inside the box. Oh my God. Let's just speed this up again. Okay. Oh my God. This is like Christmas. 2K Games is sending me a whole bunch of stuff. Wow. I mean, I have no idea what 2K Games is doing this. This is amazing. Okay, so we have a Switch case. We have a cloth of some sort. Socks. Small thing is to have your cups on. Can we have a moment? A Nintendo Switch Pro Controller. What? I actually needed one. Because I have done a... This is kind of funny too. I have done a little setup in the living room where I have a secondary monitor so that I can have friends over when they are just bringing their Switch and we can have game sessions together. So, you know, my living room is now dedicated for LAN sessions. Gaming sessions. And I only have one Pro Controller at this place anyway. I have my second Pro Controller at my mom's place and I like to bring my Switch over there too. So, I'm shocked. Oh my. And look at this robe. Can we have a moment on this robe as well? The material is actually really good. I know I will be using this. I love to just game around in like, pajamas and robes. There is a scented candle as well. And it smells really good. Really good. And XCOM radiation bath salts. And look at this thing. This one is actually really heavy. Filled with sand it feels like. So, I think it is like a neck pillow. And a bag. And we have this in the heart. I don't think I have seen any other YouTuber gotten this package from 2K Games. I mean, if you have seen anyone else getting this, let me know. Oh my God. Look at this. It is 128 GB SD card. You know what? In my camera right now I have 64. Now this thing. A headset. They are sending me a big SD card. A headset. A Switch Pro Controller. A robe. And all sorts of fun stuff. Such a fun package. Thank you so much to 2K Games. This was an excellent package. It was fun. It was well put together. Impressively high value. For just a package to some random YouTuber. I am impressed. Peter. You did good. Now these two packages I got in my PO box. I even feel like I recognize the handwriting on one of them. Oh my God. I've always wanted to play this game. LA Noir. You play as a detective, I think. From what I've seen. I've seen some reviews of this game. But I never got around to buy it. Or play it. Excellent. I heard it is really good. And it is a rock stars game. I'm really looking forward to this. Who was this from? But thank you either way. Very much. I'm always grateful. Always. And I think I'm going to enjoy this title. Now the next package. From Helsinki in Finland. Nice. Ah yes. This is what I always want guys. I need chocolate from your country. And that is what I need. Hello Issa Gaming. Chocolate for the most dedicated gamer in the world. Thank you so much. So I think I'm just going to wrap things up here. And say thank you everyone. For watching. And for everything in life. For everything in life. I will see you later. Thank you very much. Yes. Thank you. And good bye.


Hi everyone, Joe for Jaspy's casebreaks.com. We did it.  We did one of these last night. We're doing another one tonight with a little bit of a hitless giveaway here. If you don't get a hit, we'll randomize the hitless people and top six will get 20 bucks of break credit.  Big thanks to this group of people right here. Appreciate it. Congrats again to the winners of spots as well. Now, actually, there's a combo team, so it's 31 spots. Cardinals and Saints were combed. So let's combo those teams up. So there should be 31 on each list. And let's roll it and randomize both lists eight times. See if Locke's here too. Nice. Eight times. Names first. One. Perfect. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. And eighth and final time. Number eight, we got Rolando down to Brandon. All right. Six and a two. Eight times for the teams. One. Two. Three. Four. And eighth and final time. We got the Seahawks down to the Niners. All right. Rolando with the Seahawks. Brian with the combo. Cardinal, Saints combo. Sean with the Ravens. Lee with the Rams. William with the Brown. Steve with the Giants. William with the Lions. Joshua with the Broncos. William with the Texans and Bills. Sean with the Vikings. Jesse with the Eagles. Al with the Dolphins. And with the Cowboys. Aaron with the Bears. Jason with the Washington football team. Jonathan with the Bolts. Ryan with the Charter. Orton Steelers, that is. Jonathan has the Chargers. Ryan has the Steelers. Clyde with the Panthers. Tony with the Packers. David with the Bucks. John with the Bangles. Christian with the Falcons. Brandon with the Chiefs. Jamie with the Colts. Jesse with the Patriots. Al with the Jaguars. Brandon with the Titans. Travis with my Raiders. Russell with the Jets. And Brandon with the Niners. All right. Let's get all this on one screen. This is a high risk. A high reward sort of break. So keep that in mind if you want to trade. Now remember from the previous break I put some little squiggly marks right there so you know they're all from the same case. I think yesterday's case was pretty solid. Hopefully this second half will be even more solid. So we're going to pause the video when we come back. We're going to see if there's any trades. Then we'll have the break. Stick around. BRB. All right. Welcome back folks. A little bit of trade chatter but no deals were done on a Friday. Thanks everyone for getting into it. Appreciate it. I'm trying to make this toner last a little bit longer. All right. Here we go. Of course that's the way it'll go, right? Steve Locke saying had the chargers last night so probably going to be big things from them in this break. All right. On this side we have a quarterback and it's Jake from State Farm 29 out of 49. Nice colors in here. Dual relic and the autograph. A little bit of schmutz or dust in there or something like that but that will go to William and the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo. Revealed that too soon. It's going to be a thinner card. It's Nick Bosa. Award winners. Autograph. Nice. Defensive rookie of the year. Niners. That'll be for Brandon Hall. Man I wish.  What happens to Jake from? Is he going to get demoted to practice squad maybe? He should go somewhere. Get a chance to start, see some Jake from State Farm, State Farm commercials. All right. Next one is, is a giant. There you go. Tried to trade. Couldn't trade mojo. There's Darius Slaton. Two color patch. On-card autograph. One out of 35. Looks like. There you go. That's the Steve Locke. Jake will say he's touring with Drake. Everyone had a, everyone had a shot at the Giants. Now we've got some char, some Rams that is three out of 49, three color patch and auto cam acres. And that'll be for Lee with the Rams and the final one here. Good luck. Oh, I haven't been keeping track of the hit list, but I could do that really quick. Last one is going to be, I think this is a nice one, three color patch and autograph to a Tongo by Loa two out of 25. That's for Al Acosta who bought his spot straight up and got last spot mojo. There you go, man. Very nice. Sorry, you're not eligible for the break credit anymore. Now, all right, let's flip back to this screen right here. So we got, let's actually keep track of the names right here. So the dolphins obviously just hit no break credit for Al. The Rams got the acres, no break credit for Lee. Sorry, Steve Locke. You're out of the running for break credit. Niners hit as well. Brandon's out and the bills hit too. So William is out right here. Everyone else, you have a shot at a little bit of, a little consolation prize, a little bit of break credit. It's clear these blank spots right here. All right, let's roll it. Let's randomize it five and a three eight times. So it's going to be the top six after eight, 20 bucks of break credit each. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, and good luck. Eighth and final time. Once again, top six after eight. So from seven, the other way, from seven on down, my apologies. But thanks for trying. I appreciate it. I appreciate it. Top six, $20 break credit each. Rolando, Jason, Brian, Jonathan, William, and Tony. Thanks for giving this break a shot. I appreciate it. A little consolation prize going your way. I'm Joe. I'll see you next time for the next break. Bye-bye.

We will need to fill the plane tank completely before we can take off Yeah, because without any fuel the plane's not gonna go anywhere That is a fuel nozzle There's four of them around the cave, right?

Okay, we are now flying in the kidnapped plane direction Oh, I like how the plane actually looks like how it's moving Even so we still have a few hours until we get there. What a few hours There's something about this Ronald guy. Okay, so we don't really know much about this Ronald guy to be exact ourselves At first sight he looks like a good person Why would he do something like that? Maybe he's possessed or something man by the ghost or the demon Um general what are these bananas for? That's that's exactly what I said to myself Oh, uh, I thought you could be hungry Well, he he's definitely a nice person after all, huh here. Everyone have a banana Okay, so we're uh, I guess it's a banana party now instead of a rescue mission You might need that energy for later Okay, I'll just save my banana for later. I'm not feeling a little hungry right now Wait, don't eat the banana. Okay. Good thing. I didn't eat it. It's poisoned What then why would he put him out for us to eat?

You're a little too old for those jokes Okay, anyways, we'll be flying for a few more hours. You might as well chill or take a nap Well, I guess nap time it is everybody that will wake you up in its time Okay, so our only objective is to take a nap and then we're gonna ride to the plane And then we're gonna try to take the plane back from ronald Uh-oh, okay the music changed Uh-oh, it sounds like we're in a thunderstorm Oh my god, all right, so we're flying out here in the thunderstorm Time to wake up everyone Wake up soldiers Seems like we're arriving to our destination Okay, it's nighttime and it looks like we're inside a storm Dude imagine being in a storm in a plane, right? That would be very terrifying We need to be ready in case we have to General we were struck by lightning. Oh, okay. This is not good Oh, no, they hit one of the propellers all right motor is getting critical danger Dude that thing is gonna burst into flames Does that mean we will die? Most likely yes trust in in the real life situation. Yes Okay, everyone chill Okay, so now here's the chill guy I will fix the motor, but I need everyone to cover me out there What how is he gonna go out there?  You know how crazy you got to be to go outside the airplane when it's moving I mean, I don't even know if it's possible To even stand on the airplane like this. Okay, this is so scary Okay, the storm is getting worse Oh my god, this is a very bad storm I will fix the motor as quickly as I can Okay, so this is the busted engine As we can see here. It's got a little bit of fire coming out of it. Oh, dude Dude, he just fell Cover me and try now to get struck by lightning dude the the general poncho just fell out the plane What are we supposed to do now? Oh, no the general's god guys Okay, so be careful with the lightning. Oh, no This is pretty cool. Yo All right, so what are we doing now with the general? He just yeeted out of here And he said to get my back in case anything happened And we just let him fall out the plane Yeah, good job everyone Oh gosh, right 30 seconds Before this crazy lightning attack goes away Okay, so he's like none of the lightning strikes back here, so I'm just gonna stay back here Well, everybody's running over there Okay, so can we see the pilot? Oh, he's right there What dude? He's floating Um, he's floating. I think I just found that. Yeah, he's floating, but he's floating down there Dude the general is floating Oh my god, the motor is fixed now. All right, so is he gonna like teleport back over here? Oh, he did. Okay. Nice Alrighty, whatever. Let's go back in here. I've never seen such a strong storm All right, let's just pretend like we didn't see him fall out And can we go back in the plane? Jesus Christ. I don't want to be out here in the storm. What? Dude, why is there a giant skeleton? You will not stop this fate. What are you talking about? Oh my god. Oh Dude, it's a wildfire coming at us quickly inside the plane. Oh my god. Okay. So where did this giant skeleton monster come from? He just came out of nowhere And he said something about you will not stop this fate. What did he mean by that? Hey pilot. Is everything okay? Where's the skeleton? I'm sorry general. I don't know what you are talking about What did you not see the giant skeleton? We didn't see no skeleton general Okay, so we clearly saw a giant skeleton out there and he didn't never mind. Let's keep moving. We're almost there Oh, what? Okay, that was a bit strange then He said the pilots said that they didn't see the giant skeleton when we clearly saw the giant scaly boy In our faces. Okay general. We are here Finally perfect everyone pay close attention. We will sneak through the back door of the kidnapped plane Okay, so when are we gonna are we gonna jump onto the plane? We need everyone to get out safely before we go after ronald once we're in there. We just have one chance Okay, so we got to be very careful with this. Good luck soldiers. Thank you general poncho All right, let's see Oh, I think they're opening the hangar door. Oh, we're we're actually inside the plane already Okay, this is it. We're on the plane Oh, look. I see a roblox hat. I see some. Oh, that's like expired cheese over there I see a giant key or something. Okay. It looks like ronald covered the door Oh, great. This dude locked it. I wanted to do this my whole life. Oh, it's ronald Okay, so this guy's definitely insane as we can see. Oh, no, we better hurry Check the storage see if you can find anything to open this door Yeah, I don't think we can open the door with the giant block of cheese Okay, great. You found the hammer that will work Okay, so let's open this boarded up door and see what's behind this My god, let's see what ronald is up to in the plane Let's see what his master plan is It's over ronald He's just right there. How did you get here? I mean, we just landed in here, bro.  Okay, I guess there's like an invisible wall here. Come on. He's getting away Oh great. He went into the captain's room There's no time to go after him. We need to save everyone on the plane first Yeah, it looks like they have bombs trapped onto them. This might be a little dangerous Oh, we have to take off the bombs. All right Dude, you're you're not saving the people. You're just running past them You got to help out the people. Thank you. Thank you. Oh, no problem People love robloxia general I informed you that all the noobs are now safe in the aircraft great But there is still one left the captain. Oh great. Not the captain But wait, isn't it like the captain supposed to go down with the airplane or like the boat? Or is that just with the boat? I'm not sure.

Okay, so we're parachuting out of here Oh no Okay, so the whole cabin burned down And the captain was still in there and why did ronald like pass out of nowhere? What happened to that dude? Okay, so where are we falling exactly So dark. Oh, I see the plane All right, hopefully the captain makes it safe. I believe in that guy He looked like he was a tough general I believe he'll make it out Oh, look, I see all the noobs dancing down there Hey, we got everybody parachuting here. All right. Oh celebration No guys do not celebrate because we don't have the general made it out What why this guy doesn't have a head dude his head is on the ground What? Get teddy Here's teddy Dude, why is this guy's head detached? Oh my god. All right. Well, look at all.  I've never seen a baby noob before It's so cute, man All right, so let's see what happened with the general Um, what is that? Where I think the general's coming Where's the general? It's a monster. Oh great now a monster appears Wait, what is he talking about? I did not see a monster Soldiers we can't let the world see this horrible creature What monsters he's talking about? Go back here. Go back to where you came from monster Wait, is he talking about me?  Who are they shooting at? I did not even see a monster. Oh my god Okay, so we got to get ending or where it said discovered the monster Oh, like I'm moving in the background Wait, so that was it what Okay, so I I guess being the monster the whole time was just me being this giant thing I thought I was gonna be able to like kill someone or somebody I guess not. All right, so we got to discover the monster award And I have no clue what happened to the general since we left him behind Well, we didn't leave him behind. He stood back to save um To save ronald and the pilot, but He never came back So, I don't know if he made it or not. Well I hope he does All right, you guys well, this was airplane three if you guys enjoyed the video Make sure to slap the like button If you're new to the channel make sure to subscribe and turn that notification bell on and I will see you guys in the next one ye

your phone, it may work, but this is one of the problems we're working with sort of new technology. Very recently, the latest versions of Apple iOS for security reasons have sort of broken the ability to detect the orientation of the phone, which is what you need to use to look around. So it may or may not work for you. Anyway, so that's one simulation. And so we're hoping to do the other first in geometries. This is a very recent project that I've been working on with David Bachman and Saul Schleimer, making these really beautiful fractal patterns. And so these are called Canon Thurston Maps, or these are sort of closely related to Canon Thurston Maps. And again, there's a simulation, so let's go and see that simulation. You can go to, if you turn your head sideways, you can see henrysag.github.io slash canon-thurston. So let's go and take a look at that. So this is, you can drive around this. In principle, you should be able to do this in VR, but I don't think we have actually tried yet. And you can, actually, let's do this. Let's increase the speed. There's all of these controls and things you can do, and then you can just sort of zoom into this thing forever and it just keeps going and going and going. Really, what's happening is that you're traveling through a three-dimensional hyperbolic manifold, and, well, let me tell you what's going on. So, it's sort of mesmerized. Well, and there's all of these different triangulations you can do, and they all look different. Let's change the colors to neon, and yeah, I mean, there's just endless fractals. One of the interesting things about this, unlike the Mandelbrot fractal, where you zoom into it and you keep sort of seeing different things, here you keep sort of seeing the same thing, and it's because you're looping back and forth through the same manifold lots and lots of different times in different ways. So, let me try and explain a little bit about what's going on here. So, this is, you can also get the software to do this, and this is showing you the view of a bunch of tetrahedra. So, maybe you can see, so there's a big triangle in front of us, and then that's one face of a tetrahedron, and you can see the other three edges there. And so, and there's lots of tetrahedra everywhere, in fact. So, this is a big tiling of H3 by these tetrahedra. And this is, it's sort of hard to believe, but it's possible to take the component of the figure eight knot, so that the worm drilled out through the ball manifold from before, and you can triangulate it with two tetrahedra. So, there's some way to cut that manifold up into two tetrahedra, only two. And then, you can put hyperbolic structure on them, and this is one of the two tetrahedra, and all of its neighbors are copies of the other tetrahedron. And so on and so forth, as you look along geodesics into this manifold, you're going through the same two tetrahedra in lots of different combinations, wrapping around and around and around. And so, this is colored by distance from the viewer, so just, you know, edges that are close to you are brighter than those that are further away. Now, let me change the coloring. So, now how is this colored? So, in addition to these tetrahedra, we need a surface that's made up of faces of the tetrahedra. So, you take two triangles, and they sort of glue together to make a nice surface inside of this three-dimensional manifold. And what we do is we keep track as our sort of, we look outwards, because light rays leave your eye and go forwards, rather than leave the world and go into your eyes, and that's how it works. Anyway, that's how it works here. A light ray leaves your eye, and you count how many times it crosses this surface that we've got, and we count it with sine. So, if you cross from the positive side, then you get plus one, and then if you count again, if you cross again another one, which has, from the positive side, you get plus two and so on, and then you can go plus and minus.  And if I remove the edges, that's what you get. And so, this is a new algorithm to draw these Canon Thurston maps, those sort of older algorithms, which didn't sort of give you the whole picture. They were just sort of drawing the boundary of this surface made out of triangles. And with this new sort of pixel-based version, with this ray tracing, you get into all of these, these are sort of cusps, these are the corners of the trying of the tetrahedra, you get this very sort of bright contrast, and you get into all of these squiggles. Okay, so that's the new project, and we're hoping to go more into that in the future. So, let me tell you a little bit about spherical video. So, this is a frame from a spherical camera, or in the business world, which means in the real world, these are called 360 cameras, which is obviously wrong. It gives the sense that you can look all around you, but it's really capturing a sphere of data. And so, the way that they work is you have this little gadget and it has a fisheye lens on either side that allows you to see all around. So, this is a standing around the camera in at Stanford on a rainy day. Actually, let me play this as a video. So, I haven't done any math yet. Let me show you, so that's the sort of unwrapped equirectangular view, so that's, oh yeah, so what is going on here around this way is around the equator, and then up and down is going towards the North Pole and towards the South Pole. So, this is what it looks like in the way that it's supposed to be viewed.  But, because these cameras aren't cheap, but we're very good jugglers, so we knew what we were doing. So anyway, yes, we stopped. So, we do a bunch of that. Okay, so this was all just what you see in the camera as usual, but then this is not. So, what is going on here? So, I've sort of doubled up the world. There's two copies of me on either side. Well, there's two copies of everything. The tripod, you can't see all of the legs, but it now has six legs because it's not a tripod anymore. Oh, you can see that the number there is the same as the number there, so it's been unwrapped. So, let me show you this over here in the unwrapped view. So, there we go. So, what's going on here? Get the fully work so you can hear what's going on as well. So, what's going on here is, you have all this data on a sphere, so what did I do to get this effect? First, I stereotypically projected it to the plane, and then I applied C squared, thinking of it as the complex plane, and then I wrapped it back up onto the sphere. And so, this is doing a complex transformation into this sphere of data, and you get this effect. So, if you show up to juggling, and you really want to do a pattern that involves six people, but only three people showed up, if this pattern has enough symmetry, you should choose. Let's see, what else do I have? Ah, yes, so I'll let this play for a minute. A past version of me. So, as I was saying, my name is Henry Segerman. This is a spherical droster video.  This is the future, so there's future versions of me over there, and this is the past. So, I'll hand you off to a past version of me to explain again what's going on. A past version of me. So, as I was saying, my name is Henry Segerman. This is a spherical droster video. So, slowly zooming this way, or rather the... So, how did I make this? Well, so there's a little bit of sort of camera trickery. I don't really have a portal. This is really a window. But, you know, so I could cut that out of the image and replace it with a translated version of the same, well, actually not the same image, but the image 30 seconds in the past. And so, how do you move it? So, the movement is using Mobius transformations, if people are familiar with those transformations of the Riemann sphere, or you don't even need to know about Mobius transformations, take the sphere projected to the plane, using stereographic projection, and then just scale the plane, multiply every point by two, wrap it back up onto the sphere, and the effect is that you've got closer to the North Pole, sorry, closer to the South Pole and further away from the North Pole. So, it looks like you've moved that direction, so this is a bunch of trickery. Let's see. And now, this was a collaboration with the Fine Heart. I'm gonna let this play for a minute or two and then I'll say something about it. So, the voices who are all singing at the same time, and they're offset in time from each other by 20 seconds. In this case, all three voices are the same. They're all set in time by 20 seconds, but also the geometry of the world is offset in time by 20 seconds each time. Like the Z squared, I always said the Z cubed, so you have three copies of everybody, three copies of Vi, but there's only two copies of me. Where is it? There's only one copy of the sheet music. So, the sheet music actually moves around the circle. This Vi is gonna pick it up a little bit after that by putting it down and pass it through and put it on this stand. There's only two copies of the hammer that's used to strike the triangle. So, somehow it's the various parts of moving around the three scenes with a whole bunch of moving trickery. There's a wonderful thing itself, which Vi put an incredible amount of work into. So, you should check it out for all of the gory details about sustained pedals and everything. Okay, so, and if you have access to a VR headset, there's a version for the VR headset where you're actually in there looking around a little and it's a better experience. You should do it. So, right, so I mentioned at the start, there's this illustrating mathematics semester at ISAM. So, let me advertise just a little bit what this is about. So, the idea is to bring together mathematicians and makers and artists who are interested in doing mathematical things and illustrating mathematical ideas with computational tools. So, we're here for the whole semester. We wanna produce some really good illustrations of mathematical things, not just for outreach purposes and sort of pedagogical purposes, but also drawing good pictures sometimes means that you get a proof, right? That you wouldn't or you get a conjecture that you wouldn't have got otherwise. This is basically how I do all of my papers is I just try and draw good pictures and figure things out. But yeah, we wanna communicate research, mathematics and spark collaborations. If you can't make it over for the entire semester, there are three week-long workshops. There's illustrating geometry and topology, illustrating number theory in algebra and illustrating dynamics and probability. And so, we're bringing lots of people in for those shorter workshops. So, well, there's lots of information here that maybe I won't bore you with. So, you can go on the website and look it up. There's funding for travel and accommodation that's available. You can apply on the ICEM website. So, that's pretty much my talk. I'm on Twitter. This is my website. It has links to all of the things. This is my book, which is, well, it's got lots of fun math in it and it's all illustrated with 3D printing. And come to my 3D printing workshop this evening. Thanks. Thanks very much, Henry. So, are there some time for some questions? Oh, like the monster group. Yeah. So, you notice I never did anything more than four dimensions. Yeah, it gets really hard. Yeah, so, right. So, I mean, in four dimensions, there's sort of maybe two basic strategies for reducing dimension. You either slice through something and you get a lower dimensional thing or you project. And I don't know of many good ways to do anything beyond, I mean, even five dimensional things. It seems just really, really hard. So, I mean, yeah, there's sort of a broader point that is like, we've got all this visual machinery in our heads for seeing things in the world and we want to try and apply that to tell us about our mathematics. But yeah, I don't know that anybody has really any good way to see, to get much. I mean, sometimes you see the projection of the E8 group and it's just this mess of lines and does anybody get anything out of that picture? I mean, it's nice that it exists, but I just don't know. Yeah, so, yeah, which is, is that an illustration of the thing? I mean, it is, but it's a two dimensional, I don't know. So, yeah, it's just really hard. I wish I knew I had a better answer for you. I sometimes think, actually, that sometimes we have this sort of, oh yeah, there's this interesting stuff that happens in three and four dimensions and then in some areas of mathematics sort of, everything gets too simple in five and above. And I suspect that we just don't know what the right questions are to ask because we're not living in six dimensions. And mathematicians who did would know what the right questions are to make it interesting. Other questions? Okay, well, if not, let's thank Henry again.


Hello everyone and welcome back to another video. In today's video, we're going to be taking another look at power query In this particular example, we're going to be looking at how we can merge two tables So at the moment you can see well, we'll go through them We've got two sheets users and contacts in the users table We've simply got a user ID a name and a surname and in the contact table We've got that same user ID and it but we've also got now some additional contact information for each one of those users and what we want about to do is We'll start off with email But we want about to pull through either one or multiple columns from this contact table And map them against each of our applicable users in this table But we'll be creating creating all this into a new table altogether So you could say it somewhat resembles The functionality that vlookup gives us But we want to obviously moving away from those vlookup functions We can now see how we can do this in power query And it's obviously a real strong function because like I mentioned just then We we have the ability to pull through multiple fields We could pull through every one of those fields in the contact table rather than just the one Again as that example of why power query is better than or more powerful than our vlookup in that example So we'll just jump straight in if you haven't seen our previous video on power query You might want to check that out Maybe after this video But it's also worth mentioning that if you have little or no experience using power query This video is still suitable for you And you'll get a great idea of just how straightforward power query is to get the basics And then obviously you can then build upon them as well And it's a real great tool for saving you time when it comes to particularly repetitive or monotonous tasks And yeah, that is that's my sales pitch on our power query. So let's jump straight in So the first thing I'm going to do is go click obviously where I am here and you can see in the user table This isn't a complete applicable step It's just the way I tend to do it And I'm going to navigate in our ribbon to the data tab and then you can see we've got this optional from table range So this is where we're going to be opening up power query and telling it we want to absorb data from our users table So I'll click that button And you can see it's now loading up and we've now got one query Query that is being created for us. So we can see we've got this user user's query on the left hand side here And we can also see that power query has built two Applicable steps for this particular query to the first one being source So we can see where this query or the data is coming from and clearly we can see it's an excel connection It's coming from our current workbook and it's picking up an item named users So we obviously know visually that we can see that information is stored in an actual table But when it comes into power query, don't get confused It's just referring to the name of that item, which is a table But it's the name is obviously users and you can see it was absorbing all of the content And it's also added this change type step. What simply is Identified what it believes to be the best format for each of our fields So depending on the data set you're using you might want to play around with these All you can all you need to do is either manually type It will replace in the text for each one of these items here Or simply you can just select in the top left of the applicable field your desired format for that field as well So at this stage we have successfully pulled in our users table What I want to do now is I also want to put in a separate query for our contact table And then after that we can then have all the information that we need to pull upon it There are as with many things I'll probably touch on this video in multiple ways you can go about this But the straightforward way I find and also it'll help you understand how things are working Is we can simply recycle what we've done here for our user table to get our contact table All I'm going to do is navigate to our source And I'm just going to copy out all of this information that you see here or this simple query we've got And I'm never going to navigate to our query section here. I'm going to simply right click go to new query Go to other sources. Obviously, you can see we've got all these various sources that we can pull from as well Go to other sources and I'm then going to navigate down to blank query And you'll see it's now created a query for us Simply going to do control v to paste that in And if we were to hit enter now, we would get basically a replica of our users query But we want to just change this to contact Or again, if you had another table you wanted to pull you'd work the same way if you just call reference that query hit enter And you can see it's now pulled through that query or that data set for us as well And slightly different all looks the same. So source again the same what we just now entered and change type You can see automatically power query has then gone and identified what it believes to be the best format for each of those fields Again, we're not going to pay too much attention to this at this stage But as mentioned before you could play around with the different formatting if it was a key requirement for you We're just going to rename rename our query now and that can be done either way You can do it over here in our name field Or you can just simply right quick click the query Select rename and I'm going to call that contact and hit enter So we now have our two queries that we want to merge together So our next step is going to be having got um What I find I do by default is I select the sort of the driving table. Should I say so this is the base table? So In our particular example, we're looking at here We have exactly the same number of rows in both of our tables because it's simply a table that was split out But there could be a scenario where your user's table Maybe only contain 10 users your contact information table then contained many or maybe hundreds of rows And in a scenario where you only want to pull through the applicable contact information for the people you have in your user table That is where you want this to be your primary because it's kind of driving everything. So that's why I've selected here first Having selected that I'm simply going to go over to merge queries And again, if you're on a different tab, just make sure on the home tab And then over about halfway across the page, you'll see you've got merged queries But rather than hit that button We're going to do the drop down here and you can see that we have two options available to us We can either do merge queries in which the merge will happen within this existing user's query Or we can go to the second option which is merge queries as new And what I want to do is go for this option because it will then create a third query for us in which the merge has happened Again, you can I'll just select that button now Again, you can it depends how you want to work if you want to merge it all in one But I quite like to break out the steps. So I've still got my separate user in contact queries And I can then just you know, I have my third one here. So you can see how it builds out So the first thing it's going to have done is pulled our users table through and we can see a preview of that here And then the next part is we wants us to select our second table that we're going to be merging And for us it's quite simple. We haven't got many queries to scroll through But if you had more, obviously you'd see a longer list here and all I'm going to do is select this contact Option or query should I say and we can now see again a preview of all that So it just gives us the first what five or four rows that we've got there Once we've got that this is where it's really important Obviously have your unique identifier across both queries for us. It's the user id So we just now need to select user id from each query What I've done in the first and also done the second And you can see it's been selected because it's been highlighted in each query And that's allowing the two queries to be connected And obviously for us to be able to pull through the data as required The join type we then need to select and you can see there's a number of options here I don't want to digress too much into this and create confusion But you can see a brief description of which what each of the joins will do And so for left outer what we've gone for you can see it says all from first Matching from second. So basically our final query will show all of our results from our first table But will only Pull through the matching results. So if this person doesn't exist in this table So let's say Alfonso if Alfonso doesn't appear in this table our final query will still have a row for Alfonso It's just that we won't have any data pulled through for him If however, we did a right outer join so we can see it's pulling everything from the second But only the matching from the first Then what it's going to do is is our query is going to basically show us all of our final table Our final query is going to be all of our second table And it's only going to then add the where applicable the people from the first And I think I might have been trying to explain that simply and maybe made that more confusing than it need to be But hopefully I haven't And more importantly for this example, if you just select left outer, it will get you started on how it works So once that's done, we can ignore this funny fuzzy search options Just just gives us the ability to find or to define how accurate we want to be with our mapping But we'll skip over that for now. We can see we've got a tick here. So it's all happy things are working If we then select okay We can see that we are now left or we have new a new query created So we can see merge number one and it's going to very much resemble our users table at this stage So if you go to users, you can see we've got these three columns And if I go to the merge, you can see that we've also got those same three columns But we've also got this contact field now available, which is a table So to now show the information we require from the contact table We're going to go on to this expand button that you can see at the top right here Not obviously to be confused with a drop-down filter that you'll see on the first three You can see the icon is ever so different with the two arrows. I'm just going to select that And if we wanted to now bring through everything that appeared in the contact table We could do that by having them more ticked ticked But I want to start off by just bringing through the email field So I'm going to do is deselect all of them select email And then I'm going to select okay And you can see that we've now got our email address available to us So as we look past the eye down this page, you can see we've got Abbott Hansen and we've got Abbott Hansen.icloud.com So we can see that they are all aligning and they look as they're expected to So we have now got our query as desired If however we suddenly decide actually we want more than just the email address What we can do is go back into our Settings Oh, and I've gone to the wrong one. Oh, actually now I think we can do it from here You can see at the moment we've got email just selected if we also wanted to bring through the phone I'm just now going to select that as well and click okay If I can hit the okay button and you can see it's also added the phone number for us as well And if you did miss what it's now clicked on over in our applied steps You'll see and it might not show on the screen too well It says expanded contact and we can see we've got this little cog in the corner So if I select that cog You can see it opens up our options of Information to expand So all you need to do is just make sure the applicable values that you want are selected. Let me just do another one Let's go on to region select okay And you can see how it's now brought region through for us as well If however you change your mind and you don't want region or another one go back into that cog D select region Select okay, and you can see how the formula was updated for you both at the top here and obviously in the data we have available here as well One last thing you might want to do before closing this is you can see that at the moment The information is called titled contact phone or contact email because it shows you where the table has come from I'm simply going to just Rename both of those so I'll click right click the contact first and just change that to phone And I'll also do the same for contact email right click and let's just call that email Just so it tidies up ever so and you can see we've also got that step now created for us as well And if you want to where you can just navigate back through these steps so you can see the process as it unfolds I'm happy with everything I've got here now. So I'm just going to simply close and load in the top left hand corner And you'll see it's now created a number of additional sheets for us what we'll touch on in a minute And we've also got our desired output so called merge one What we because we did end up with that because we didn't rename it. So let's just go back into merge one And sorry I did that a bit quick didn't I what we've got there is obviously this is our output And you can see we've got this option on the side here for queries and connections If that box is not available to you So if I just cross off of that simply just go to your data tab and you'll see there's this option here for queries and connections Once we've got this open we can I'm just going to double click on merge one to go into the power query edit for merge one And let's just rename this. So we'll call this uh, I don't know Contact Details maybe Yep And we need to make sure we do close and apply or close and load If we did just cross off of that it wouldn't save our changes And you can see it's changed the data set there, but it hasn't obviously changed our sheet name So what I want to do here is let's just Delete that and also demonstrate something else at the same time. So you can see we don't want that We don't need contact. So what it's done is it's created a sheet for every query that we have And we don't need to save that and we don't need to do users as well Okay, we just need to keep obviously our source user and contact table So if we now to go and do a new sheet and I was going to select the top left there So all we then need to do is if you go to contact details in our queries of the side here, we'll hit right click We'll then go down to where it's a load to and I want to store it into a table And I want to then uh, yeah, so you can see it's already then selected our existing worksheet You could go into a new workbook, but I'm quite happy for it to go there And I'm going to select okay, and you can see it's now pulled that field through the field So it's called pulled through that data set for us as desired And obviously we can then rename this now for to output maybe or whatever desired name you have And there we go We've got our desired output the real benefit obviously of this is should any of the information and our source table change It will reflect in here. So let's say abat Hansen at iCloud.com. Let's see if we can find Abbot Hansen. So Abbot Hansen is e 10 83. So let's go to 10 83 And let's change this to I don't know Rather than our club ago new email just so hopefully stands out on the page to us And we'll just remove that Filter I've got on the table if I now go to output we can see what is old email here Simply you're going to right click refresh And you can see it's now updated to abat Hansen at new email.com So I hope you enjoyed that video and you found it useful Maybe this was something you were searching for and needed a solution Or this is now a new feature that you previously weren't aware of apologies as I think the video has gone on a bit longer than I intended But I hope it was only more valuable and obviously a bit more detail to help you through this process If you did enjoy the video, please do give the video a like It's not only greatly appreciated by me But obviously helps that all important youtube algorithm and ensure More people are able to find such videos as this one If this is your first time checking out the channel or you've seen our videos before and you haven't yet subscribed Please could you also do me one last favor and subscribe to the channel and hit that bell notification button That way you will also be notified as soon as new videos of ours come out onto the channel So once again, thank you very much for watching and we'll see you in the next video


I'm going to dump 10 degrees of flams on the little ones in my speed checks. All right, and trim and take off and transplant ourselves. All right, let's go. Delta Charlie depart. We got our airport diagram right here. This program affords the opportunities to students in high schools that participate in a junior ROTC across the country. And this is a way to introduce people to the world of aviation. And they're able to participate in a very rigorous flight training program that allows them to complete their private pilot license in under eight weeks. I mean, a lot of people, I've told them that, hey, I'm about to get my pilot license. They're like, no, you can't. You're like 17. That's not possible. Are you sure that's possible? Every single opportunity I've had here this entire summer has been the best summer of my life. I just did it, and I don't regret it at all. It was really a really good experience. I've made so many friends here.  They come in here not knowing how to fly, and we watch them grow through the process. We watch them cry. We watch them freak out. We watch them miss home, and we watch them get through it. And at the end, they have the license in their hand, and none of that mattered.  I'm just really grateful that they still had so much faith in me to keep going. It still feels surreal being able to be a pilot and to go back and, you know, ask my friends how their summer went, just knowing that I was at an eight-week program where I got my pilot's license. So we've gotten really close. It's like, we're in this together. We finish together. So we're all really close. Like, I would never trade this opportunity for anything to be here. Despite, you know, being away from home for eight weeks, you still meet people that I'm hoping are going to be lifelong friends. They're ready for the ride because it's nothing they've ever experienced before.


Welcome to JSA TV and JSA Podcasts, the newsroom for telecom and data center professionals. I'm Barb Mitchell, coming to you from ITW 2020. Joining me today is Michelle Marcellino, Senior Vice President and Head of Latin America for Seabourn Networks. Michelle, welcome to JSA TV. Thanks for having me here, Barb. Yeah, you're welcome. It's a pleasure, and I've wanted to start by first of all congratulating you on joining Seabourn in back in April, and you're managing Seabourn's sales organization and channel strategies, as well as serving as Seabourn's most senior officer in Brazil. Can you tell us about what attracted you to Seabourn, you know, why this position, why this company? Sure. Yeah, well, first thanks. I think it is a combination of some factors. I think the asset itself, the infrastructure, it's a great asset. The second one is the, you know, people, you know, I know the leadership for some time. I've been working with Seabourn before I joined the company. So we have the experts, good people, and also, you know, the market itself, the opportunities we have right now here in Brazil and in the US. I think those are the ingredients that have attracted me to this new challenge. Yeah, and there's lots happening, I understand. Can you talk about your plans, Seabourn's plans to expand your footprint in Brazil and across Latin America? Yeah, sure. So we have, you know, several projects going on right now. We are about to add a new pair of fiber from US to Brazil. So we're going to be able to offer, you know, diverse pets from US to Brazil. And also, we are expanding our presence here in Brazil. We are going to open up two new pups in São Paulo City. And we have plans to open a new pup in Rio de Janeiro. Besides that, we are also evaluating to have new pups beyond São Paulo and Rio with being performing, you know, some financial analysis. And hopefully, in a short period of time, I'm going to be able to share a news with you. Now, speaking about Latin America, we have a great partner, which is Adjuno. And we've been doing, you know, joint investments across the region. So right now, together with Adjuno, we also can provide connectivity in Argentina, Buenos Aires, and Santiago in Chile, Lima, Peru, and Bogota in Colombia. So it's being, you know, busy, busy times for us here in Latin America. Yeah, sounds like it. Can you talk a bit about expansion in Brazil? Can you talk about what some of the opportunities in that market are? Well, we have two different segments right now that we are working with our teams. The first one is for the IP product. As you may know, Brazil is a continental country. We have more than 6,000 competitive carriers, small carriers across the country. So we see the IP product as a good opportunity for us, right? We are in the middle of the technology shift. We are moving from copper to fiber. And having a strong IP quality IP, it's going to be beneficial for us. So we see the segment as a, you know, one of the most important for us right now. The other one is related to the financial segment. As you may know, the financial segment, it is within our DNA. We have the ultra low latency product for the financial segment. And now we are in the middle of the homologation process with the Brazilian stock exchange. And then in a few weeks from now, we are going to be also a certified carrier to offer, you know, these stock exchange networks to our international financial customers. So interesting. It's so interesting to hear sort of what's happening in the market there. And I'm interested also in your perspective on, when we look at the submarine cable industry as a whole, what do you see on the horizon there for the next year or two?  Low latency is critical right now. And then we see a lot of, you know, activities from other players, you know, upgrading their systems or building up new systems so they can offer low latency connectivity because especially in Latin America, we see this grow with streaming and gaming and low latency is going to be critical. So I think we are very well positioned for the future. And also we see, you know, other players, you know, preparing themselves for this future demand here in Brazil and Latin America. Yeah, well, thank you so much. We, you know, we really appreciate this has been so interesting. You obviously have a lot of work ahead of you in your new role. And I think that for our viewers who are hearing from you, they're likely going to want to see about learning more. Where can they go to find out more information? Well, they can go to our, you know, web page seabornetworks.com and also they can follow us on social media with being very active on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram. So those are the places where they can see, you know, the news from Seaborne. Fantastic. Okay. So Seaborne Networks, all the social platforms and seaborne, seabornenetworks.com. That's great. Thank you. And thank you so much for your time here today, Michelle. And thank you viewers for tuning in to JSA TV and JSA podcast.


Hey everybody, I'm Steve and welcome back today. I've got a new repair video for you specifically on One of the best PVMs in the world. That is the Sony PVM 20 L5 This particular PVM belongs to a friend of mine named Corey from my life in gaming and if you're watching this video right now Most likely you're aware of their channel and all the great work they do for the retro gaming community Well, I was definitely eager to take an opportunity to work on a couple of monitors for him Both were L5s a 14 L5 and a 20 L5. Here's a look at the Pre-condition on these they weren't in awful shape or anything today This 20 L5 does need a bit of calibration adjustments It's in pretty good condition as it sits but it definitely needs to be cleaned and we're going to go ahead and check out some things internally service it a bit and Refurbish it to the point where it's in just little tip-top shape and ready to be used and enjoyed for quite a long time So this is again just some calibration screens We're going to start with looking at so you can see the overall condition as we begin. I would do like to look at that grid pattern and then the linearity pattern as well as that other grid on top of linearity pattern to see if What we're going to take care of and what we're going to try to improve on the screen quality now to get into this monitor It's pretty much similar to any other PVM You're going to have six chrome screws along the sides of the shell the monitor and you're going to have four screws on the back And then I recommend if you have any kind of card or anything in your Expansion slot that you remove that prior to removing the shell just makes a little easier So once you get the screws out you just pull the shell completely back It's going to pull off the back and the sides and top it all come off in one complete piece And then you'll be able to access the back area of this monitor Now the one thing I will complain about on the 20.05 is there's a lot of plastic and it holds the monitor together and over time That plastic can become quite brittle Especially those arms you'll notice that are holding these boards in place So if you're going to service your 20.05 or 14.05 Just be aware that a lot of the plastic internally is very fragile at this point And it will easily crack and you'll see that even happen in this video just a tiny bit not on anything major But the first thing we're going to do is we're going to get in and service this D board Which is very easy to get to thankfully it's right in the back on the when you're looking at the back of the PVM it's on the right hand side and the first thing you'll do is disconnect all the connection cables on that board and Then it does have three screws holding it into place and again that plastic right there that's holding it is very fragile So just take your time when you're removing the screws and then also take your time when you're removing the board So you don't damage it any now we'll know you can see this obviously on your screen that Corey's PVM was very dirty inside and That's one of the major contributors to failure on older electronics is over time this dust can build up and It acts as an insulator on a lot of these older components and then that heat builds up under that Dust and then the insulation Creates that layer and the heat builds up higher than the normal heat load would be on those components And that you know causes them to fail quicker than they normally would so even if you're not going to do any cap work It's a great idea to clean your PVM or any CRT at this point. That's never been cleaned It's a good idea to get in there and complete clean off the dust you notice I used a brush that was an old paint brush There's nothing conductive about the bristles on that brush. So it's fine to use on this The other thing I did is that I'm going through right now are the actual capacitors that will be changing because again This is just going to get kind of a preventative maintenance and refurbishment cap kit It's not a complete cap kit. I don't recommend that for a 20-05 or 14-05 unless you have a serious issue with your monitor So we're just going in and we're doing preventative maintenance pretty much to Get out those components and capacitors specifically that are in the high heat areas of that d-board and Those tend to wear out quicker than the other capacitors that are about an inch away That are not in a higher heat area on the board so I use the HACCO FR 301 which is one of my favorite tools and I've used it for a few years now and it still runs strong So if you're thinking about getting one of those for any kind of capacitor or electrolytical, you know any kind of PCB work, I'd highly recommend one and then I went in and as I go through and replace the capacitors here I'll just give you some tips on my solder work here and I'm not the best at soldering but I do have a lot of experience and I have my own way of doing things which is to Pull the capacitor legs through on a couple of capacitors like I did and then I like to take a bit of flux and Rub that all over the points that I'm about to place solder on and I heat up the little pad and I'll add a bit of solder and Then I come in after that and I trim the legs down you know I'll trim those legs down and then I'll reflow those points with fresh solder again and That gives you both a great bond and it you know Through with my experience on recapping boards like this. It just seems to look better if you do it that way for me, so Just something to note there. That's how I do it You don't necessarily have to do it that way you could go in and clip the legs ahead of time One thing you'll notice that I do a lot in my videos too is I go back and check my work And what I'm doing right here is I'm using just a standard Multimeter that I've gotten I've got it set to continuity check and what that'll do is it'll help me make sure that all My solder points are connected so I can run from one spot on the board that's in line With the pad that I just put solder on and I can check check those points out to make sure that I have continuity where I should have continuity and It pretty much eliminates any chances of errors as far as from maybe poor soldering and So I like to even if I'm servicing multiple boards on a PVM Or BVM or any CRT I like to service them one at a time if possible and then test them after that And I'll go through that on why that's preferable Here in a second, but just so you know this job did work on this little D board So everything went fine with that cap replacement Now I'm going to take the rest of the CRT apart because we also need to check on the main Chassis which is on the bottom of The monitor itself you'll see in a second here as I pull it out It's got you know the fly back attached to it And you need to remove the deflection board We just worked on again, then you need to remove that plastic Bracket that's holding it you'll need to come in and remove the input board to on the back of the PVM and That's where this job can get a little overwhelming because there are going to be Just dozens of little Connections on cables that you're going to be removing and then you'll have to go in later Once you're finished and reinstall this stuff so you need to kind of make sure that you document where a lot of these connections go and Familiarize yourself with it, but just note that they should only fit in one specific spot So it's a good way to double check though to make sure you've documented a way that that looks ahead of time in case you Forget and you're trying to reassemble the monitor at a later point. You want to put it back together correctly? So you have to do some other things too when you're back here and just assembling this to get to this main chassis we had to get rid of the neck board which you just saw and Before I go through let me pause this video real quick before we jump into right at the point. We're about to Discharge the CRT. I wanted to show one thing over here, which would have been in the way of my Camera, so we're going to move myself just out of the picture for this part of the show and we'll Go through and I want to show you on the back of this neck board This neck board does have a plastic bit that is Holding it to the back of the CRT neck and that cracks all the time So do not be you know upset if that happens to you when you're restoring it Because that's quite common for that to break right there and it doesn't really affect anything It's just an extra piece holding that neck board into place And that's been removed on a lot of other monitors, but it's on there So now let's get in here and we're going to do our big alert here first before I do this This is your safety warning here. We go We're going to do something called discharging the CRT tube Because we have to get the flyback, which is attached to the main board on this monitor out So you don't always have to do this on every monitor, but do be aware that this Procedure can be quite dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. So what I've done here though is I've got my Alligator clip on my cable, which is attached to this screwdriver here and then so that is Grounded to the main frame of the CRT do not Have your CRT plugged into the wall when you do this You just need to get that electricity from the back of the tube to short out through your cable onto the main chassis frame And then it'll just kind of dissipate throughout all the ground on that frame really quickly and then the energy is gone So that's what we're doing. We're not going to leave it plugged in We're going to have it unplugged and then we're going to again Attach the alligator clip like I did here to the metal frame and then I'm lifting the cap with one hand You don't have to do this The reason I am doing this is I don't want to damage Corey's tube or his flyback at all So I'm going to take the little bit extra risk of myself and lift that Rubber anode cap up so I can expose the metal and then we'll go in here and tap it with our discharge tool Now I often get asked if I have like a resistor in this tool and I don't it's literally just a piece of copper cable that is from a section of an old extension cable heavy-duty marine extension cable that I cut a section out of and it's you know triple insulated and I Attach that with just some electrical tape to the metal end and then run the other end and I soldered on Alligator clip and so after you've discharged it You're safe to pull that chassis out now that was what you see right here is done very quickly but again, you're going to have a ton of cables holding this chassis in there and I made it look easy there But you need to make sure you get it out of the way correctly and that you take all the screws out So you don't damage the board. Here's a quick look at Corey's board tons and tons of just dust and dirt built up This could easily cause a spark on these ICs or you know heat to build up in here. So this is way more vital Then even the capacitor replacement most likely is getting in here and cleaning off this dust It's going to really save a lot of these components from the risk of overheating and shorting out and being damaged So it's a great thing that we were able to get in here and first clean these boards And then I'll show you again. We're work on some capacitors in here This board is just not that fun to work on though. I mean, it's a it's a very difficult board To work in it's it's tight There were a couple components that I had to remove just to get the capacitors out because they were situated in such a way that it's just right up against a heat shield or under another component and Just a very difficult Chassis to work on so I don't recommend this if you don't have a lot of experience working on a CRT You should not probably go in and try to start by recapping your 20-05 Or 14-05 that one has nearly the same build out as this It's almost identical even though the monitor is a little bit larger on the 20 inch version And here we have our CRT chassis main board that we're going to be working on And here's a look at it after it's been cleaned up. It already looks a bunch I mean lots better So I'll go through here again and mark off the specific capacitors. It's difficult to see but I did put Some markings on some of them. They're really down in here again. There's actually one right under this plate right here but a lot of them will not be replacing and So anyway, that's the rest of the job is working on that board I'm not going to show you that because it's again. It's just difficult to get in there and do that I already showed you how to recap that other board. It's pretty much the same exact process.  Let's go in here now and clean off the rest of the back of Corey CRT and that's gonna use the brush we use our brush and some more compressed air and I also like to go in and rub the back of the tube with a Clean washcloth. It's not wet. It is dry And I'm just getting a lot and lock it off a lot of that thick dirt and dust You don't want to get anything too abrasive on the back of the tube And you don't want to really scrub the back of the tube because some of the stuff on the back of the tube Is meant to be there so it should good good to knock the dust though off of it And then we'll get the dust out of the rest of this thing with the brush and more compressed air So again, this is just What happens in these CRTs? There's so much little space for dust to build up over time and Corey's you know, he's he's looking at like 15 16 years on a monitor of just Not been cleaned before so it's understandable how that can build up over time and It's definitely something that you want to take care of again Even if you're not getting in there and recapping like we did you can always come in and clean the board and even use just the brush and Cans of compressed air if you have to just go to the store and buy it I use a professional air compressor, but I can use just canned air And here we have the monitor put back together and we're gonna do one last thing before I put this anode cap back And that's apply a fresh coat of Die electric grease Now what this will do is it will extend the life of the anode cap and It limits the wear and tear on the cap and the components itself and it also will eliminate any kind of Crackling or popping most likely if you hear that When you turn your CRT on there's a chance you got some dust or something under your cap And this die electric grease pretty much prevents that from happening. So you won't have any noise and It also works to recondition that cap a little bit by putting this on that lube on there So just get a healthy amount of that on the back of the tube right around the cap It can be in the cap. It can be in the little anode metal piece It can be on the prongs on the back of the anode cap. It doesn't really matter It's not gonna hurt it. It actually does help it. So that's one of my favorite things to go in there and do is reapply that I'll die let your grease because many times it's gone CRT and you can get it for about 10 bucks a can and You go in at it and it really does make a difference a lot of times if you have a loud CRT or any kind of crackling or anything like that. It's very recommended Let's get in here now and test it out. We got it all put back together Everything looks good right off the bat at least we're gonna start this monitor up and you know Just give a regular power check and then I'll get a signal put into it and we'll see what it looks like with some start off with some Contra here and a Little bit of 240p, which again is one of the reasons that people really love this monitor is the 240p 480i 480p 720p and 1080i it supports all Those video formats in a CRT form with some with some incredible blacks. It's got You know high TV line count on there and it's an all-round great monitor now Cori's Had a chip in the display. Okay. He had a tiny chip I've done this before but I wanted to show you in today's video I went and took off the anti glare layer so that we could get rid of that chip He said it was so distracting. He didn't care his Monitor was going into his basement and there's not really a huge difference Between having that layer it layer on and off if you're in a dark room and you're using it You won't notice that you don't have it really So this can be done by using an exacto knife and you want to try to get this off in one big like Single pull you don't want to try to get you know in there and pull the layer apart It should stay all together in one big layer and if you pull it off You don't have to worry about the glue getting stuck like I'm doing here I just basically use the utility knife To to peel back the corner and then you grab the corner with Appliers pull it a little more and then as you go just try to continuously put pressure on it and pull it down and pull It off and that way you can just avoid having Any kind of residue on the screen from the screen layer itself? I've probably done that five or six times and I've never had Anything left on the screen Glass under the layer of protection that protective layer I've never seen the glue stick on there But I've talked to other people who've had trouble and I've had it you know break and had to try to get rid of Glue on there and that can be very troublesome But once you remove it you just put the bezel back in place and we'll get it set back up to run another test The good thing about it is if you get rid of that layer, then you can go in and use any kind of real Nice glass cleaner and clean the glass Thoroughly afterwards. I'm gonna show you though some calibration screens. This is after I've adjusted it I do have videos that I'll link to the playlist for the 20-05 in the comments and in the upper corner here of this video where you can check out the procedure to calibrate this particular monitor, but We do have some improvements on the specific things that we were talking about as far as Geometry on the screen you can notice our screen is expanded out to near perfection Still have a tiny warp or wobble on this sides But that's pretty much prevalent on every single CRT or the majority of them at least some type of minor geometry Issue is definitely going to be there most of the time. So Here's some action shots again of 240p. We're gonna get real close and show you some scan lines This thing really will take your breath away for 240p this monitor and then You know 480p is awesome on it too because you can still maintain the 4 by 3 aspect ratio. So it's an awesome monitor and definitely one to Keep an eye out for now the I Did an episode of market watch where I talked about how much these are going for right now and something like this Is honestly selling for like $2,500 right now. It's this particular monitor and I anticipate that price to probably only go up because again, it's getting so much more difficult to get a higher end 20 inch Monitor that does progressive and analog video. Well, that's it for today's restoration Cory's 20.05 is great. He says it's working wonderfully and The next video we're gonna talk about his 14 L5 because that actually needed a bit more work I had to do a tube swap on it and also service the boards clean it and Get it back calibrated.
