Everyone's done a pretty good job of making their own office their unique
style and fancing it up a little bit. We've got Lionus, the head of it all,
who has not done a single thing with his office. Since Lionus is kind of an old
dude with lots of new ideas, we thought we'd take some old hardware and bring
some new ideas to life. So, with the help of Corsair and FreeGeek, we've got
ourselves a bunch of old computer hardware pieces that we're going to try
and shape into beautiful art on his walls. So, come along for the ride.
Let's see. And there's nothing on the walls. Oh god. Oh god. They're not coming out.
Is that what it's supposed to look like? This looks terrible. Whose idea was
this?
Intel's Skull Canyon Nook features a sixth generation Core i7 processor and
Thunderbolt 3. You can learn more at the link in the video description.
Hey Lionus, you can't use your octis anymore. You just told me that.
Hey, Lance, you can't use your office anymore. I'm not doing an alternate take of this.
You have to use that one.
What? No, I'm not saying anything. Camera's rolling.
I don't understand. I don't film stuff. Can you just like spell it out, please?
Okay. So, apparently this is why we don't reenact things cuz it doesn't
work. That's a lie. We do that all the time.
Well, L just told me to say that. So,
there we go. Anyway, the reason he can't use his office this morning is because
we're actually having it painted. Um,
so she's helping us out. I'm sorry. I totally agree. Your name.
Kaylin. Kayyn. Right. Thank you. Um, and she's
painting it orange. So, these two walls are going to be orange to match that one. And then we're just going to have
the one white wall here that we're going to use for the motherboards. And
hopefully when Jake gets in today, we'll get started. So, what I'm going to do is
I'm going to mask the window and the door so that lightest can't see in to
see what we're doing anymore.
It is really orange. Color was it before? Is it wet?
Yeah. Don't touch it. Okay. So, what are we doing? Where all
the motherboards going here? This whole wall.
And then where is the logo going? Are we still doing that?
I think up there we're going with above the Windows. And we're making that out
of RAM. Yeah. White and black. What?
Okay. And then what other stuff? There's like so much stuff. Oh, it's just more
motherboards. I thought this was just other stuff.
But it's just more motherboards. There's lots of projects. We got lots of CDs. There's like an aquarium. We're
having shrimp people. What? Shrimp
in the aquarium? Yeah. Like real shrimp?
Yeah, real shrimp. All right.
What happened here? Well, you'll be pleased to know the tank
passed the leak test. Unfortunately,
water still got everywhere because that thing can hold way more than I thought
it could. So, cleaning up the kitchen.
I say without your ongoing support, it would have been a lot. So, here's what we have. We have these
fabulously fancy little miniature shrimp
with some uh with some I guess that's moss or something. Uh got those. We've
got some moss balls for them to play in.
Some some fuzzy green balls. I don't know how much you guys like those. This one looks like mech from that old
Nickelodeon show. So, we've got that shrimp food. Neutrofin cycle biological
aquarium supplement. Hey, so just so you guys know, I wasn't hired to be an on
camera personality. Just keep that in mind when leaving comments. Thanks.
I accidentally filled the picture with hot water, but fortunately, I caught
myself since we don't want to have a Louisiana shrimp boil. We actually want
these guys to live. So, cold water. My god. Um Oh my gosh. Oh my god. Okay. Um,
we've got the pump turned on and we've got some pretty sick bubbling action.
It's like a jacuzzi for these shrimp. It's going to be fantastic. So, there
you have it. Let's see. Okay.
Um, maybe don't give them a seizure their first night anyway. Oh god, that's not mood lighting. That's
the opposite of mood lighting. Oh my god.
Why is it not? Okay, hold on. Wait. um mode. Moment of
truth. You do not want to spill the shrimp.
Okay. Oh, there's two bags there. Yeah, there's an outer bag and
there's an inner bag. So,
Oh god. Oh god, they're not coming out. Oh god. Wait.
Go in. I really don't want to suffocate them. So, like I'm just kind of putting
the bag inside. That's probably much better than having
them be out of the water for too long. Just trying to get cuz the Yeah, there
we go. Yeah, they were caught in the um in the algae.
I think you still have you still have one in there. I don't think so, but we'll check right
now. Okay, so our shrimp aquarium is
basically complete. Um the shrimp, they're all kind of clustered in one
corner. They're kind of trolling around the bottom because I guess that's what shrimp do. Um, they've got some food
sticks down there, so they should be fine for a while. Uh, so yeah, that
pretty much does it. We've got a whole bunch of CDs and we're gluing them
together. The shiny side up for a
badass CD lamp. Is that what we're calling it?
That's what we're going to call it. It's going to be sweet when it's done. Uh, so I'm working on a DIY LED lamp for
Lionus's office. drill the hole so that we can run this awesome LED
through it. So, I just have to do this through here. And then we're going to
run it all the way along the ready rod
to the very top. And then once we're done that, Avon has already preglued CDs
for me. So, one side you can't see the
bottom of this and both sides are shiny. So, this is the completed DIY lamp, but
we ran into a big bit of a snag where the LEDs didn't actually fit. Yeah, we
had to jumble all of these to make sure that there's actually space for the LED
to fit through. I think as a like kind of cool like art thing, this will make
the office look pretty awesome. So, even though it's not the brightest thing in
darkness, if Lionus ever has his lights completely off, which I'm sure he will
at some point, it's actually not that bad. So, uh, we didn't think the IO on
the motherboards look too great for the wall. So, we're going to take it off.
All right. So, you might be wondering what we're doing with all these cases here with the front cut off of them. Uh,
what we're actually making is shelving out of an old case. So, we've got these
cases from Corsair. Uh we're cutting out this whole section here and then we're
going to have some wood going in it so that we can anchor some gosh darn
drawers right into it. So yeah, we got to cut this part off otherwise the
drawers aren't going to fit. I did a bad job of that.
That they slide in, they slide out.
Wonderful. So now what we got to do is put this on the front. So, it still
looks like PC, but we got some stuff in
the way of these drawers. So, I think I
think I have to get rid of all these tabs.
Now that those are out of the way. There we go. Look at that. And then
it'll slide in and out with the drawers.
So, I'll put glue on it. And that's it. I'm Colt Colt Colt. And today we're
going to be taking three of these frames. And we're going to be gluing
all of these quite a few of these key caps onto the border here. And then Edel
is going to get us a beautiful picture to put inside. This thing isn't even
straight. Not exactly, but like it's it's fine.
Hi, I have Ethernet cables and I'm going
to do a thing.
All right. So then you have go like this.
Take the key out. And I'm going to put my name there. A
little signature. And then I think I put Linus sucks somewhere, but I don't know
where that one is.
So I zip tied a bunch of floppy discs
together. We're actually going to make a w a welcome and a do not disturb sign
for Lionus. So this side's going to say do not disturb. And that side we're
going to write welcome. And we're going to hang it on his door right there so he
can flip to whatever side he wants. Home.
And final update on the motherboard
wall. It is now completely done. It looks freaking awesome. I really like
how the paint job and layout uh turned out. And we're just putting the very
last piece in right as we speak.
And this is just a little gap fill in right there.
Well, that doesn't really fit.
Does that look thin enough? They just
It's a lot darker in there now.
Don't worry, it's just a little bit of glue on the carpet. Just a just a
little. Just a little bit. I'm sure I can get that off. I am apparently
cutting these to make a mouse clock.
What's a mouse clock? It is a clock for your mouse so that you
know when to click things. What
is each mouse thingy going to be like one two three? How do you know which
mouse is the four? The position.
Okay. So, they're not marked. No, they're not going to be marked. So,
I just have to guess based on where it
would normally be. Okay. Is that what it's supposed to look like?
This looks terrible. Whose idea was this? Okay. So, I just tested one of these
mice and they work. We are just wrecking working mice. So, as techie is your
thing, what do you think of the techie poster?
I really like how you put in the brain fissures. You know, brain fissurers
increase the brain surface area. that allows our brains to like learn
more stuff than say like a lizard or something.
Your brain must be really wrinkly. Thank you, Wzel. That's the best
compliment anyone's given to me all year. And I mean, and sadly, I'm
completely serious. I think this one's my favorite.
Nobody told me what to do with it, so I just put things in there. I think it
turned out great. Comic Sands. You can't go wrong when you use Comic
Sands. looks straight enough. Maybe.
Maybe. I don't think the spacing's right, but I
can fix that. Yeah, the spacing is off.
That's fine. I can fix that. Let's just make sure this one's straight.
Cool. Looking up some. Yeah, I'm going to make I'm putting in secret words in this.
I'll disclose them later. Cable mod, your wide beams are killing
me here, dude. Maybe turn that off. Okay, I'm sorry. Oh, looks like Christmas. Look at that.
That looks terrible. You look good. Not going to lie, like recording me
doing this probably super boring. Well, yeah, but it's all it's going to
get cut down. I just want to make sure that there's a go.
Go away. It says minus kid go there. Not mine. Get out of here.
Not here. What are you doing? But the sign is there. Not here.
Yeah. Well, we're going to put one there now. It says stop. Did you put away your filming equipment?
Wasn't that fun? You know what else is fun? Shopping on Massdrop. They're
actually featuring a drop for the TFZ Series 5 in-ear monitors. These are the
highest end model in the TFC series, and they've gained a following over on
HeadFi, Reddit, and Best Audio Friends for delivering great bang for your buck.
They have improved sound clarity and an upgraded braided cable compared to their
predecessor for better durability. And they ship with an assortment of
accessories including three pairs of single flange silicone ear tips, one
pair of double flange silicone ear tips, one pair of foam ear tips, over ear
hooks, a cable clip, and a carrying
pouch. You can check these and other drops out at Massdrop at the link in the
video description.
So, what are we going to do for the reveal? Like, who's going to explain what? I think Ed should go first cuz he did
the posters. I actually worked on it. Yeah.
Okay. So, do I finally get my office back? So, you leave.
We're not We're not done yet. We need to waste more time.
We don't know how to explain it. Like, I was writing, so like I'll just
stand here, I guess. Okay. 5 minutes max. Maybe 10. Okay.
Yeah. If you do your bit first, cuz that's the first part you kind of see when you walk in anyway, right?
