Do you run a YouTube channel? Tell us about it

My husband does, I think it's really cool (disclosure: I may be a little biased). He buys random super 8 film canisters on eBay, scans them and uploads them on his channel.

It's mostly home movies so you get an unedited flavour of the past.
Ok this is so cool and I'm subscribed

And how much of a passion project is it for you?
We use to do reviews of shows, but stopped after losing the camera. It was fun. Comments weren't, but I just ignored them.

That's so kind of you! Let me know if you find your reels I'm sure husban-san would love to scan them (and send them back on an SD card if you don't want them uploaded for the world to see)
That's very kind of you too! I'm sure my mum would be OK with it after an initial once over. These kind of things have historical importance I feel.
So she got back to me and thinks she still has them. Unfortunately they are buried in an absolutely massive pile of unorganised boxes in my sister's house box room. I think it would be a full day of effort to go through them tbh and it's going to be a long time before I have that kind of time available. Life is hectic.
I'll keep it in mind though. Thanks again. I do appreciate the kindness.

I do! It's 12 years old! A mixed bag of video game-related nonsense, and a few video essays about ancient arcade games and their respective legacies. I think it's cool.

Oh that's cool! Had a look at the galaxian one and I got a big blast of nostalgia as I had astro wars that you highlighted!

I have mostly random videos with things I've been interested in over the years. I've been doing a short a day for over a year now. The shorts are pretty random but surround things that happen on my life.
I love video and live production. I haven't been able to really do it since college and don't have time (or equipment) to do consistent long form content; but shorts are easy and fun enough to come up with.
Also a bunch of the shorts involve my cat.

Definitely one of the coolest items in my collection.

I very clearly remember there being a massive chip inside. Could be the largest one I've ever seen tbh unless my memory is playing tricks on me. It was a very long time ago.
Edit: definitely will look at the Donkey Kong one later. Presume you've seen the king of Kong?

That's a bummer. I find a lot of toxicity in YouTube comments that are just wildly disconnected from my experience with actual humans in the real world.
I think that's one of the things I really like about Lemmy in that folks will generally respectfully disagree or be kind to each other. Generally.

I have a huge passion project YouTube channel about DIY gardening projects with one video and 3 views from 12 years ago. I'm carefully cultivating my viewers to give a sense of elitism with my rare drops.
