WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.640 David Pankratz vlogged his weekend. I might have slightly not told him the right things. 00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:08.880 A feature on iPhone is that you can hold your phone vertically or record horizontally. 00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:13.920 I did not tell David that he should do that and he took it as recorded vertical, 00:00:13.920 --> 00:00:18.720 but hopefully you still knew the video. We've been working on a project that requires a little 00:00:18.720 --> 00:00:28.480 bit of paint and Justin just came by and things are not great. Not great. So we're going to go 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:34.880 take a look at some of the other pieces that are required for this project and see how they go 00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:39.920 together and what we can do about it. Okay, so that's all of the panels. All of the panels. 00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:44.560 Are they going to have this problem? Hmm. This ain't the case for this. Like at all. 00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:50.640 We've already pulled this apart this far. This back panel is going to be just as bad, 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:57.040 isn't it? Everything is going to be just as bad. Oh man. Field trip time. We're going to go over to 00:00:57.680 --> 00:01:03.360 Logistics and take a look at a different case, see if it's a better candidate for painting. 00:01:03.360 --> 00:01:09.280 Otherwise, we'll start surfing the internet and see what happens in terms of finding a new candidate. 00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:15.280 Hello. Oh really? The buns. I'm vlogging things for Sammy because he wants to see a week in 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:20.560 Pankrat's land. Oh yeah, I saw you holding the phone all suspicious like and I was like, 00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:23.680 Pankrat doesn't normally do that. Yeah, no, I don't normally do that. 00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:32.480 Um, do we have an O11 dynamic? Yes. Thanks, AJ. Say hi to the flow plane people. 00:01:35.520 --> 00:01:40.000 Either or should be fine. Justin's already found something. Of course, this one's white too. 00:01:40.720 --> 00:01:43.360 That's not a problem on this one though. We can take it apart and paint it easier. 00:01:44.160 --> 00:01:48.800 But all of our, oh, the exit pieces are black on that one still, so it might be okay. 00:01:48.800 --> 00:01:54.320 Yeah, the exit pieces are black. It's fine. Cool. Because all our pieces that are going inside are 00:01:54.320 --> 00:01:59.840 black. Actually, this thing's a mix. It's panda. Yeah. We still have mesh on a bunch of the panels 00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:07.760 that would need to be separated. No, no, it's magnet. Oh, is it? Oh my goodness. So much nicer. 00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:12.000 Okay. Yeah, I think this is going to be the move, Mike. Now, do we order one in or use this one? 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:18.240 We can just use this one. I forgot to do my daily worship for Pankrats. Pankrats, we worship you. 00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:27.120 No. This guy should just, yeah, pops up it out. So that's fine. The feet also unscrew. So these 00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:32.800 unscrew, that can come off. Okay. Anything that's screwed down will unscrew. But this is, yeah, 00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:38.400 I'd say this is going to be far easier for me to deal with. Still have space for fans here, 00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:45.520 fans here, AIO there. So that's fine. We can't vertical mount the GPU in this case, but that's 00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:51.120 not the end of the world. Or do we have a vertical mount? We might have a vertical mount bracket 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:55.920 that will just fit in there. Let's take a look. So there's an O11 dynamic EVO here. It looks like 00:02:55.920 --> 00:03:07.200 it's a different color on the inside. Oh, and if that one's black, then we don't have to worry 00:03:07.200 --> 00:03:12.640 about covering up white bits. I have fingers underneath to help. I'm contributing. Oh, I see a 00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:19.520 riser too. That's good. This one being black actually is kind of nice too. It's also backed. Oh, 00:03:20.640 --> 00:03:30.160 it's mirrored. It's flipped. Someone's been doing some stuff. Someone's been in here. So 00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:37.600 there's a riser, but it doesn't actually hook up to a vertical mount. There's boxes in here for 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:48.160 other things. Oh, oh, oh. A bright GPU kit in black. That looks like the winner. It's all wise. 00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:59.600 Of course. That's box number two. We got a second vertical GPU kit. Okay. It feels heavier. 00:03:59.600 --> 00:04:04.720 Feels heavier. That's a good sign. Oh, that was probably the riser. That was that's problem. 00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:09.280 But it wasn't. 00:04:12.480 --> 00:04:16.480 Nice. Okay. Perfect. That's got the riser with it too. I have concerns. 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:23.360 I will show you. I will show you concerns. It is much harder to be effective at your job when 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:30.720 you have one hand. Oh, it might be okay. Because we've only got a double bracket on here. Even 00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:35.680 though it's a four-slot GPU, you've only got a double bracket. Well, I'm going to pull these out 00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:40.640 and then I'm going to see. Looks like we have a winner. We're going to pivot to the O11. I'm going 00:04:40.640 --> 00:04:46.320 to stick everything back in where it's supposed to go and strip this case down with Justin so that 00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:51.360 we can send it off for sandblasting. Case has been disassembled enough that we gave it over to Alex, 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:56.160 and he's going to find someone to sandblast it for us so that we can paint it. The dude got back 00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:00.960 already. He can sandblast it. Nice. We're going to try and reassemble this case that we have tore 00:05:00.960 --> 00:05:10.080 apart. We're going to reassemble this case that we mostly tore apart, and then it can be used for 00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:16.160 other things again. Hopefully it goes back together nicely. Now, lunch time. Evan wants me to review 00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:22.000 a video for him, so that's what I'm going to do next. Lunch is done now. I am headed over to the 00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:27.520 other side for a shoot with the rest of the writers doing a video on opinions, so I expect 00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:31.200 there should be some good debate. I'm here a little bit early, so we're still setting up. This 00:05:31.200 --> 00:05:35.040 is what the other side looks like. I'm going to see what I can do to help set up. This is how I'm 00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:44.560 helping. Thank you, David. We good to go? We're good to go. Sweet. We're good to go. What? Maybe 00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:50.960 we're not good to go. Shoot is all wrapped up. Elijah's cleaning up some of the tape that we put 00:05:50.960 --> 00:05:55.680 down. I've got about an hour left for the day. Let's see what else we can get finished. This 00:05:55.680 --> 00:06:07.520 is a setup that Sean and I have been working on a little bit. We've got a system here hooked up to 00:06:09.200 --> 00:06:17.040 an HDMI splitter, which one side of it goes into a capture card, which goes to a laptop 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:25.040 and a monitor, but the other side of it goes into this guy, a little 00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:34.240 PCIe KVM, so that we can have someone working remotely to do some emerytuting for us. 00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:37.600 And we're recording the whole thing with a little security camera over there. 00:06:38.320 --> 00:06:40.560 And we're going to get some nice time-lapse footage. 00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:48.640 So I got the camera and that's going to be recording this guy here. 00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:54.960 Evan is interested in seeing how many VMs we can have nested into something for a short, 00:06:54.960 --> 00:07:00.480 so I'm going to do a little bit of testing with a bench and we'll see how far we can get. 00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:04.800 Just start with Hyper-V and put a Hyper-V on a Hyper-V on a Hyper-V, I guess. 00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:12.320 Okay, so what I've done is I have sysprepped my VM so that I can grab the virtual hard drive 00:07:12.320 --> 00:07:18.080 and throw that into a shared folder on my main host. And then when I'm making new VMs, 00:07:18.080 --> 00:07:22.400 I can literally just copy that virtual hard drive in. I've got most of the work done for me already 00:07:23.200 --> 00:07:29.360 and that should speed things up a lot. Okay, VM2 is running. Here's VM1. 00:07:29.760 --> 00:07:37.360 So you got that running in a window and here is VM2. 00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:45.920 Time for morning stand-up though. We'll have all of the writers kind of come together and 00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:50.640 talk about what we're going to do for the day. I'm doing a little bit of 00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:58.640 discovery into how far you can nest VMs for a short. So far I'm three deep and we'll see 00:07:58.640 --> 00:08:08.000 how far that can go. And then I want to focus mostly on red bull stuff. We had to pivot the case 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:13.760 on the one that we're painting because during this assembly we found that the mesh that is in the 00:08:13.760 --> 00:08:20.400 height does not come out nicely and doing it with heat causes the mesh to melt and the... 00:08:20.400 --> 00:08:28.320 It's just like case that we already bought a sacrolet. Yeah, we were able to return the old one so we didn't actually end up standing 00:08:28.320 --> 00:08:30.480 significantly more money. We'll try to return this one too. 00:08:31.520 --> 00:08:36.880 This one's at a point where I don't think we could return it nicely because the cops 00:08:36.880 --> 00:08:41.600 work a bunch. Those are the grounds upon which you return it. 00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:51.200 Going to start my third nested VM. I can already tell you this isn't hope. 00:08:52.160 --> 00:08:56.320 The processor setting for the virtual machine is incompatible. 00:08:57.040 --> 00:09:01.920 A remote RAM tuning project needs a little bit of help so I'm going to be swapping out 00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:09.200 the storage on the screen capture and kind of resetting things. I've got everything powered 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:14.960 off right now because it was all frozen up. 4TB SSD and go straight to that SSD. 00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:21.760 Okay, okay. We'll start the screen recording again. 00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:29.760 Let's power this guy back up and see where we get to. If not, what I might have to do is 00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:36.160 use that little guy there. Oh, still stuck there. That's the guy I want. 00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:43.120 Now there's some signs of life. Come on, post screen. Hey, there we go. 00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:50.400 Okay, I made a few changes to my virtual machine stuff and I think we're 00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:53.360 in a spot where we should be able to go. 00:09:56.560 --> 00:10:05.760 There we go. Our third nested VM. What you would use this for? I have no idea. 00:10:07.040 --> 00:10:12.080 Okay, so I've got all of my VMs and my main host kind of all lined up here. 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:16.560 I think you'll be able to tell pretty quickly what the experience is like, 00:10:16.560 --> 00:10:23.520 just clicking on the start menu and everything. So here's the main host. It's fine. 00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:34.160 Here's the first VM. It's also pretty good. Second nested VM. You can see it's already 00:10:34.160 --> 00:10:38.640 starting to get a bit slower. And then our third one. 00:10:43.920 --> 00:10:50.560 And today we get to start off with donuts. Someone brought donuts in for the team. So 00:10:50.560 --> 00:10:56.080 I've got a load of a bunch of games onto this drive here for another project, but for some reason 00:10:56.800 --> 00:11:05.920 this guy is not working at USB 3 speeds. It's only going USB 2. So we're going to get a little bit 00:11:05.920 --> 00:11:14.160 creative and just plug it into a test bench. That way I can transfer at a more reasonable 00:11:14.160 --> 00:11:21.520 speed instead of 30 or 40 megs per second. Okay, we are all hooked up here. I have my 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:30.080 Steam library drive. Everything's showing up here. Because I do this enough, I've got a few 00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:34.720 scripts that I've put together for copying Steam games and kind of finding where things are. 00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:43.360 I don't have something to copy directly from one drive to a secondary drive, but I do have this 00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:54.560 nice script here to dump all of the games and the app IDs for said games 00:11:57.280 --> 00:12:02.800 into a CSV file so that I can copy things manually and typing with one hand sucks. 00:12:02.880 --> 00:12:12.880 So now if we go into our games.csv, no, I picked up notepad plus plus for this. 00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:22.080 Here we go. Now I can just go and control F for things that I want. 00:12:23.040 --> 00:12:34.240 I found marathon and that gives me the friendly name, the internal name, which usually is the 00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:42.480 same, but sometimes is different. And then this app ID and app manifest, which you need to copy 00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:48.640 that over as well. If you want to skip the whole verifying game after you've transferred things. 00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:56.480 So just as an example for this marathon one here, I can go into my drive, my Steam library, 00:12:58.400 --> 00:13:09.280 and we're looking for 306 5800 306 5800. It's right there. And I can copy this guy 00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:15.840 into the destination steam apps directory. And then I just got to go into common and grab the 00:13:15.840 --> 00:13:22.240 marathon directory and that will get me going. Since I've got you guys here, I thought I'd show you 00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:27.120 the other PowerShell script that I've got for copying things to the system drive. 00:13:28.640 --> 00:13:36.400 I created this guy right here, which will ask you for where your Steam library is that you 00:13:36.400 --> 00:13:43.360 want to copy from. And then it will parse all of the games that are there. And I've got a nice list 00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:49.760 where I can just pick and choose which one's there. And then if I want to pick a bunch, 00:13:49.760 --> 00:14:00.320 then you just control click. And then once you're done, you hit copy games, which I haven't been 00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:05.360 able to get a nice progress bar. So it just kind of looks like it hangs up there. But you can see 00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:11.680 with task manager, we're copying at almost a gig per second. Most of the time makes these things go 00:14:11.760 --> 00:14:17.360 nice and quick. Evan's asked me to do a short. He is off probation by the time this goes up. 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:21.840 So we're going to take a look at this guy. It's a little kind of mobile controller for 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:26.960 iPhones, connects by MagSafe, all of that type of thing. I'm going to be moving on to another 00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:31.360 shoot helping out with building a computer, just doing the B roll though. But before that, 00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:38.240 I need to go get a screen for Robert to play around with some animations for that other 00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:42.880 crazy build that we were working on earlier. Here's this guy. Thank you. I think I've got 00:14:42.880 --> 00:14:46.320 the right adapters and whatnot. Okay, plug it in and make sure it works because 00:14:47.680 --> 00:14:51.520 the pins were very sideways when I first found it. Oh, lovely. 00:14:54.560 --> 00:15:01.840 Okay, this is on at least. Okay, if it's getting that far. So the base is going to be like that. 00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:08.800 Okay, cool. If it's getting that far though, that is working. Cool. So it should be good for you 00:15:08.800 --> 00:15:14.400 once you get the software installed. Okay. Yeah, I got a little bit, I haven't done too much with 00:15:14.400 --> 00:15:19.200 this yet just getting it set up. But yeah, I want to try like the angle. And right now it's just 00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:22.800 some screen flickering, but I want to try to have like some camera flashes. Yeah, like some soccer 00:15:22.800 --> 00:15:29.600 ball is going by or stuff like that. So yeah, if you can imagine that wrapped around wrapped 00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:34.800 around that. And then we've got a little figure that's going to stand in the stage there. Hey, 00:15:34.800 --> 00:15:40.720 we're back on set. Hello. This is what we're going to be building. I'm going to go grab my laptop 00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:46.240 so that I have a copy of the script down here and know what I'm doing. Got a little bit of time at 00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:52.000 the end of the day. So what I'm doing is we had disassembled this case and couldn't figure out 00:15:52.000 --> 00:16:00.480 where this piece went. I did find out where it goes after looking at the other version of the case. 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:11.520 And it is on this top bit here. I wouldn't even screw that though. It's a good thing that there's 00:16:11.520 --> 00:16:22.640 one in arms reach. So that goes right on here. Something like that there. I accidentally ran 00:16:22.640 --> 00:16:28.240 the battery dead yesterday. So we missed a bunch of this morning. So far today, what I've done is 00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:35.760 go over to ShortCircuit and I did some coverage of the Moto Watch 2026. And that's been about it. 00:16:35.760 --> 00:16:40.560 I'm going to go over to the other side and pick up some stuff. I think there are some glass panes 00:16:40.560 --> 00:16:48.080 for Justin to do some etching with for that PC build project. And I'm going to get set up to 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:54.160 build some equipment that we're going to use for another video. Hello. I'm looking for those glass 00:16:54.160 --> 00:17:01.920 panels. Yeah, that should have came in yesterday. Yeah, yesterday at 11 is what the receiving thing 00:17:01.920 --> 00:17:09.840 says. What's the noodles as well? Yeah, I saw the noodles. Oh, is this them? It should be from 00:17:09.840 --> 00:17:16.880 iBuy PAR. Yeah, this is one of our noodles. Oh, spare parts. There you go. Cool. 00:17:20.560 --> 00:17:26.720 We've got two sets. Let's get these over to Justin. These are our pieces. Would you mind 00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:31.280 to bring them upstairs for me please? Sure. We've got enough that we can blow up three full panels. 00:17:32.080 --> 00:17:36.560 So hopefully that's enough to test with. We're going to try not to blow the wall up. I think I've 00:17:36.560 --> 00:17:48.080 got the settings down. Here is our laser guy. Some failed pieces. We're just going to put these 00:17:48.080 --> 00:17:53.680 guys down right here. You didn't actually get the payoff seeing what I built yesterday. So 00:17:54.480 --> 00:17:59.600 this is the finished machine. Not a bad little system for a thousand bucks, even considering 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:05.280 the current climate with all of the crazy prices on RAM and storage. We're going to scope out a 00:18:05.280 --> 00:18:11.200 spot in the warehouse here for setting up this gym equipment that we've got. You don't have a meeting 00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:21.200 here soon, do you? Okay, I've got to set up some gym equipment for a video. Oh, no. They said somewhere 00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:27.680 over here by the exit. You guys use this space for stuff though, right? 00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:32.800 Yeah, like you can't kill this. Yeah, no, I wouldn't want to. 00:18:35.360 --> 00:18:39.200 I wonder if it's small enough. It will just kind of fit here. So here's the equipment, 00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:48.640 the gym monster too, and we're going to set it up in this blank space here that we've cleared. 00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:55.840 I've got a camera set up on the corner of the standing desk that we're going to time-lapse it 00:18:55.840 --> 00:19:04.080 with, and Braden's going to help me. So that's what it is. That's what we set up. It's strange. 00:19:05.040 --> 00:19:14.800 I am not a stranger to gym equipment, and this is one of the stranger pieces of equipment that 00:19:14.800 --> 00:19:22.880 I've ever used. I know that today I've got a bit of stuff that I can focus on. I'm going to try and 00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:27.760 get all of the pieces for those larger builds that we've been working on earlier in the week, 00:19:27.760 --> 00:19:31.520 and put those together, maybe get the OS installed and all the software set up. 00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:39.920 There's a couple shots that we need to do, redo as replacements for the $1,000 build guide that 00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:44.480 I was also doing earlier this week, and we'll see what else comes up throughout the day. 00:19:44.480 --> 00:19:51.360 I'm going to clean off the space a bit so that I have room for all of those other parts. 00:19:54.240 --> 00:19:59.440 We're going to take a bin and start filling it with some things. I have a collection of all 00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:04.400 sorts of stuff for this project over here already, but we're just going to grab the pieces we need 00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:13.120 for the computer. Is there a U14? There's a U14. Just because these things get opened a bunch, 00:20:13.120 --> 00:20:17.920 I got to make sure that we've got the mounting hardware that we need. Should be there, 00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:26.240 but because it means going over to a different building, so if it's not there, it's nice to 00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:35.120 make sure. Oh, there we go. Those are what I'm looking for. I've got my four screws, my four 00:20:36.080 --> 00:20:44.000 spacers, and those guys there. Throw this in my box, and we'll bring that back over to the other 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:50.480 side. Because of availability constraints, we've had to get a solid state drive with a heat sink 00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:56.080 for these builds, but we don't actually want the heat sink anymore, so I'm going to have to take 00:20:56.080 --> 00:21:03.120 these apart, and Samsung has used these pentalobe screws on it. Thankfully, 00:21:05.360 --> 00:21:11.760 we have a solution for that. Perfect. I'm going to not do this with one hand, though. There we go. 00:21:12.640 --> 00:21:20.640 It's the rich, gooey center of what's under the heat sink. I'm going to stick it in this guy, 00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:27.680 and we're going to use this to image it over with a standard image so that I can get things going 00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:36.240 for it. Connect them down there, and this is the software that I've been using for 00:21:37.280 --> 00:21:44.320 doing a bunch of the imaging. I have a couple of just base images ready to go. 00:21:45.040 --> 00:21:53.440 There we go. New CPU installed. We'll just head into the BIOS real quick. Throw on our expo. 00:21:56.480 --> 00:22:02.400 Save that. Okay. Now, if everything work does expect it, we should get Windows. 00:22:04.800 --> 00:22:11.040 Memory chaining takes a while. There you have it. Windows starting. Thanks for watching. If you 00:22:11.040 --> 00:22:15.040 liked this, give it a thumbs up so that Sammy knows that he can go and make more of these types 00:22:15.040 --> 00:22:19.920 of things. Speaking about Sammy, he did one where he took the phone for a week and kind of covered 00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:20.560 what he did, too.
