Hello! Welcome to my Channel! This channel started out with me making tutorials for random projects I found cool, and has turned into a way to share my passion of computers and technology with others. I hope you enjoy the videos and learn something new!
More info: I'm a passionate software developer, robotics enthusiast, electronics hobbyist, homelabber, Linux user and tinkerer who studied software engineering at the University of Waterloo! I've been interested in software, computers and electronics for as long as I can remember. After getting into programming and tech and AV production back in middle and high school, I decided why not try to share some of the knowledge with others!

As much as you would think that this videos is useless, It really helped me. I am working at a diy project and because I am using pc fans and I need to know how to use them. And guess what ? All you get on the specification sheet for the fans is "pin 3 signal" without telling you what the hell that "signal" even means. Thank you for the video.
That was very informative. I came here because I recently bought a Hyperdrum virtual drum kit which allegedly connects via MIDI over Bluetooth to a PC running a DAW. I run Ubuntu Linux and discovered that MIDI over Bluetooth on Linux is troublesome at best and I haven't got it working yet with QTractor. One suggestion was to install Ubuntu Studio which they say comes with all the required audio stuff, eliminating the need to find pieces separately and potentially missing things and generally screwing the system up. Still haven't got it working. But we will persevere. I now have a better understanding of Linux audio and the relationships between all the different parts which hopefully will help. Any suggestions from anyone are most welcome. Thank you. P.S. Can't get it working on a Windows machine either... no that I really want to.
I tried this on latest OBS Studio but I cant get it to work. Connecting form other PC on Windows with VLC doesnt work, it says cant open socket. Opening locally VLC also doesnt work, it just shows audio no video. I followed all the settings you showed in the video.
Thanks a lot Tony.. I worked in pulseaudio and I really loved this piece of software... It's just a bit heavy for embedded systems... for eg: AudioFlinger is not as heavy as PA
Hi Thanks for the great video. I have a set of DMX512 LED pixel lights. These are plane basic fixtures. Can I use QLC+ to set the address of the fixtures, before I can use them
Is there any way i can force the 3pin fan to run at higher than rated rpm? Like increasing the voltage beyond 12v? Its installed in a pc case connected to my motherboard. Although i would not like to risk my motherboard, i dont care if the fans die.
Pipewire works fine on my PC but pulseaudio allowed me to to create loopback module (hearing my mic on my headphones) with lower latency. I can set in in pulseaudio to 1ms (or at least that is what i specified in commend) and it works fine. When I tried to do that in pipewire (either via the same command as in pulseaudio or via some pipewire alternative) then there was some wired pops and audio compressions or something that were making this not good at all so I needed to change to (I am not sure if I remember correctly) something like 20ms
Absolutely perfect explanation of what I was missing in my knowledge. Thanks for putting the effort into making the video. Also, if you haven't already, shave your head bald. You'll look like a badass.
In Windows Firewire Audio Interfaces just WORK. f.e. M-Audio Profire 610. Today still works in windows. It just works. Do you know if Ubuntu Studio v24.04 today, supports Firewire to the point where it works right away ? So far I have NOT seen Linux working smoothly with Firewire. BS Firewire devices are used a lot today. If you were a musician you would know and why. I think Linux is very OVER RATED. If you have a cheap computer with cheap computer speakers. Just the very basics. Linux is fine. If you are a serious Musician who uses firewire devices BECAUSE THEY WORK GREAT. Linux is NOT for you. You’ll have to get your self some cheap USB device. All OS work with USBs. Firewire is for those who want quality audio.
I have found that a custom reslolution at 75 or 80hz is great for gaming, its a good balance between a frame rate you can maintain, while being significantly more smooth compared to 60hz. This is ideal for games that have questionable gsync or freesync
So frustrating. I used to play CS2 with 4:3 1280x960 @ 165hz on Windows, but since switching to linux (lubuntu), I only have 60hz as an option in my monitor settings, and when I use xrandr to add my custom 1280x960 @ 165hz, it just gives me BadName (named color or font does not exist) and some other stuff. Really, REALLY annoying.

Sir, I am going through your vid, I tried to go through mine. I am getting the same thing as you are. I can't get it to work. I also have a USB drive for backup. Can you help
Molex is a company who make a myriad of connector types, not just the 4pins from pcs. Their extremely helpful and can be utilized to make some incredibly cleanly wired installs.
You very failing by VA! VA havent a good viewing Angle! And 8+2 is by IPS too, this 10+2 by IPS is only by very high pricing Displays for Professionals and not for consumer
Love this, getting what I wanted from a computer/electronics engineering degree without any of the homework, definitely revisiting this in a year when refreshing up on the techs, unless I never forget or a tech renaissance happens and most of the goes the way of plasma (opposed to crt's which have the hearts of retro gamers)
Yo Tony, where'd you learn your theory on the variety of encoders and formats? I'm about to research it, and you seem to have wisdom, any book recommendations? (Curiosity for a Computer Engineer major)
This video helped me grasp things that I wouldn't have known how to search or troubleshoot. I've been able to solve a problem on my PC thanks to you! Appreciate the info 👍
