LGR - Opening Stuff You Sent Me! April 2018

Vintage computer hardware, oddware, PC games, electronics, and lots of ramen. Excellent as usual, thank you so much!

Background music is "Uptown Bossa" by Johan Hynynen.

_"I knew one of these days someone would send Snoodes"_ Low key as always.

That CrossPad video is just going to be Clint writing "farts" on the notepad to see if it transfers to the PC. I'm excited.

Just wanted to say thanks to you and your strangely therapeutic yet entertaining videos for helping me get through a tough patch in life. It's odd how videos so unrelated to anything I'm normally interested in can bring me such comfort and enjoyment. You're the man, Clint.

A new LGR video always feels like having some nostalgia time with an old buddy. :-)
I guess that's the power of shared memories of an era passed.

I used to have one of those Game Star things when I was a kid. You plug it into your keyboard port then plug your gamepad and keyboard into the box, then you use the buttons on the box to map keyboard keys to your gamepad. I loved using it on old dos games with no (or difficult to get working) joystick support.

Lol, the wood grain background on that portrait was a nice touch.

[Josvandoesburg]

I think you still have many awesome years ahead of you! And so do we! :)
That portrait is really impressive. Well done.

[gakk]

So cool that Snood watched your Snood video and sent you Snood stuff. Snood.

Dude, you've got the best community.

Just goes to show if you produce quality content, work hard and treat people with respect and kindness great things can happen.

[gordlord]

Thanks to you, I got into thrifting more than a year ago and since then I've amassed quite a nice little collection of games which is damn awesome. Thank you LGR for all that you do, your videos helped stay happy during hard times.

Never had Turkish delight before? That amazed me more than the laptop

[Mimsi]

(Ayla here) Aw yeah! I am glad you liked it Clint! The stitching itself didn't take long, actually had it done in three days but finding a good "frame" guy was a hassle :P If anyone should be interested in the pattern, I have it on *www.mimsidesign.com* under "free patterns". And wow if I had known this was going to be your first Turkish Delight I'd packed more variety. There are some stuff that is finger licking good :D

[ThomasSturm]

I love watching these. Genuine enthusiasm from adorable dudes is the best thing ever.

[GearSeekers]

These videos are so satisfying to watch. No one does unboxings better than Clint!

[LazerLord]

Should see if you can get those noodles off to Ashens.

[mastersyfodiaz]

Clint, I don't want you to ever stop doing LGR. Your videos are a part of my week I look forward to greatly. Maybe it's just childlike naivety, but I hope you don't have to change platforms or anything like that. You go, my man.

I had Alpha smarts in Jr. High Clint. It was kind of a stop gap for a laptop on some cheaper schools. A student could sign them out and take it home to type an essay or something. Then they bring it into school and plug it in with a text program like Word open. Then, after pressing a button it rapidly 'types' what you have on the Alpha Smart into the document in a few seconds. It was an odd thing and something I had to write many, many book reports on.

You can literally keep this going for 10+ years with no problems. Your content is a endless pit of 90s tech related stuff.

[diablojd]

I could be lost for years combing through your collection. I am highly addicted to tech and it is not limited to the new and cutting edge stuff. Older tech allows such insight into the progression of tech and even often time great ideas that have been abandoned that would b great if brought back.
