This video on how to self-host your own media library with a Raspberry Pi was deemed too 'dangerous or harmful' for YouTube. So here it is on X, instead:

YouTube keeps trying to saw its own feet off for some reason. Seems like they want content creators to go elsewhere like X or Rumble.

Yikes. YouTube is the worst. I learned a lot from this video!

The irony is that you would probably get more views this way honestly than youtube

From a number of past experiments, long form video on X gets 1/5 to 1/10 the views here as it does on YouTube (but about 1/100th the RPM (pennies on the dollar).

google is run by fascists. they've been cracking down on civil liberties like a corrupt monarch on it's way to squash rebellion. why do people use any of their services? because they're a policy shielded monopoly and now they're going after small tech by violating AI innovation.

YouTube moderation is getting more and more out of control with their "harmful content" policy. I'm not sure if its because of DRM bypass or if its another case of mistaken AI (I had two videos taken down and appeals rejected, only to have them put back up after making enough of a stink about it). Sucks, your content is amazing!

If only Kodi had a better UI. It's not me, it's the wife and kids. XBMC was so much better with it back in the day. I ended up putting LineageOS with microG on my Shield. They family doesn't know the difference and I like that we are whoring less of our life's metrics to big tech

Youtube is a wee bit to strict

💾 Okay I finally bought a Raspberry Pi 5 to make into a real retro computer as a proof of concept I love the Raspberry Pi much more than my ESP32 simply because I can SSH into it and it's just like a normal computer or server, the ESP32 required specific software to re-flash it everytime and it was TEDIOUS!!!! I need a fast feedback loop to develop with so all this flashing is too slow for me The Raspberry Pi 5 instead just runs Linux which then runs DOSBox-X to run Windows 3.11 install live downloaded from there so it stays fresh I then also got a Checkmate 19" IPS Retro Monitor by Stephen Jones (very indie and Kickstarter-style product) which is like a vintage retro PC monitor but with an OLED and it runs at 1280x1024, and the Raspberry Pi 5 has HDMI out so it works perfectly with it Then I got an 8BitDo retro IBM keyboard, but the spacebar broke, so I gotta send it back and get a new one, but it was great while it worked, so it's not in this video, and I got the 8BitDo retro mouse So altogether it's a proof of concept of a real vintage retro PC with internet and it works now My end goal is to make this into production and SELL it, not for money but more for fun because I think it should exist, just like Palmer Luckey's ModRetro Chromatic Gameboy-remake I'd go with something smaller than this 19" checkmate display though, it's great but too big for the Windows 3.11 era I think, more like 14" with a matching sized retro IBM-style keyboard and Windows 3.11 preinstalled (if legally allowed by Satya Nadella) with WiFi working out of the box We could also go with Windows 98/XP, because for me too Windows 3.11 was a very short time, so I too have vague memories of it, most of my computing memories is Windows 98/XP etc. Inside it could simply run on a Raspberry Pi 5 like here, which is easily powerful enough to run all of these OS'es I see many SF founders with Apple II's in their living room, and I guess cause Apple was more popular there back then, but in the rest of the world we were mostly IBM PCs and clones that ran Windows, so it's cool to have that as one retro object working with internet in your living room Anyway, step by step, we're here now 😊
