#RaspberryPi #Uses #400th #ExplainingComputers - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Congrats on your 400th episode!
Your last point, 'to make people happy', is excellent.
People fly radio-controlled airplanes just for the fun of it. They don't transport people or goods, they just enjoy it. Fun is an obvious factor often overlooked.
Yeah I agree with that last point! :)
As a 35 years as a computer technician, I have worked on hundreds of different computers and used numerous operating systems.
It was only a few years ago that I stumbled upon EC. From that day forward the Raspberry Pi has changed my life.
Even though I retired from the IT business, for the last 20 years my only interaction with technology was using my Mac and it’s software.
But the Raspberry Pi changed me. It brought me back to my roots. I got back into programming and building new devices. I even build my first PC from watching your channel.
So thank you Christopher for the opportunity of learning all over again. I’m always looking forward to every Sunday’s explaining Computer video. You never really know what new and exciting project or device will be presented.
What a great post, thanks for sharing. :)
I feel like Arduino, Raspberry Pi and similar platforms brought back a lot of the fun that many of us experienced decades ago. It's certainly very captivating and the possibilities seem endless
are you really reading the stuff you are wtiting? 35 yrs of 'computer technician' job experience and you only used macs? and this awesome channel made you assemble your _first_ pc? are that lonely and stupid that you consider others to be stupid enough to buy that s*it? look, dude, it is well known that good youtubers such as Chris impress people to a point that said people call said youtubers 'friends' but: a) they are not in reality; b) stop drinking and thinking that writing "oh, i was there" ever works on yt
Hey Chris, congrats on the 400 videos :D I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina and i love your videos. Thanks for all the information you've shared over the years!!!
Thanks for watching! :)
Another Buenos Aires viewer here!
Thanks Chris!
@@marianofreddi Greetings!
Another Argentinean here jumping in the top post comments! Congratulations Chris!!
@@federicomarintuc Many thanks! :) It is great how this channel brings people together from all over the world.
Congratulations on 400 videos; looking forward to the next 400!
But left unanswered: what was your favorite *video* in the first 400? (Was it also the anemometer?)
No it was the VirtualBox video.
You know what else is left unanswered, the oldest video of ExplainingComputers, Chris said "Welcome to another video..." Did he had another channel older than the one we don't know about but then made a new one.
Hi Jeff -- and a very good question! In some ways my favourite EC video remains the very first one I posted, which was on Web 2.0. In it I compared defining Web 2.0 as about as hard as nailing a jelly to a wall, and actually built a fake piece of wall and tried to nail a jelly to it. And in some ways I've never topped this!
I also have very fond memories of the video I made at the The National Museum of Computing here in the UK, where I "met" Colossus: th-cam.com/video/KkSxC9pFGZs/w-d-xo.html
@SBPepperminion is right -- I did say "welcome to another video" in the first ever video, in anticipation that I would make more than one, and they would not always be watched in upload order. :)
Jeff and Chris are the two best proponents of this wonderful Raspberry Pi platform. I thank you both for your great videos! I hope the RPi foundation can ramp up to satisfy the huge demand for their devices. Can't find them anywhere!
I am so pleased to be able to share this special day virtually with you.
Thanks Esra. :)
When I started in IT in 1982, our three mainframe computers possessed less total compute power and RAM memory than a Raspberry Pi 3B+, and by a significant margin.
I use an RPi4B-4GB as my desktop, right here, and have been a fan since the beginning. The Pi Foundation might make a good candidate for a Nobel Peace Prize, their work is that important and beneficial. People need to understand computing so that it cannot be easily used against them, as is happening now around the world.
Great post, thanks for sharing.
I learned to program on a PDP-12 as a kid in 1970ish. I was in the room when excited scientists gathered by the computer waiting for the magnetic ring memory (the tech showed it to me when he opened up the back) to be upgraded from 4k to 8k. I'll always remember one of the guys in a white coat kind of clapping his hands together and saying, "Think of the algorithms we'll be able to run!" The tech quietly explained to me that the memory had always been there, they just weren't allowed to use it until the upgrade was paid for. Some years later I was a tech myself programming equipment with paper tape or banks of switches. Fun to fix things back then. Dramatic changes.
I started in 1986 so I just missed punchcards, happily, though I know some of the early computers had additional capacity not yet paid for so unusable.
My favourite 'old' story is of a cleaner who had followed a computer operator in to the computer room (carefully controlled environment and should have been secure, for those that don't know) to speak to him. On the way out she found the entry door had automatically locked so she hit the big red button next to the door to release the doorlock. But it was the emergency shut down button. It immediately shutdown a nationally significant insurance company and took all employees offline. The re-start procedure took approx 1.5 hrs.
That's a quite staggering fact.
If you visit the Fleet Air Arm museum in Yeovil, Concorde 002 is there, with half of the aircraft crammed with the computing systems they used while making early test flights. These computers have less power than a modern budget priced laptop. In fact a Pi 400 would probably show them a clean pair of heels.
@@Neilhuny Great story. Lucky it was not a fire alarm button triggering a sprinkler system!
Congrats for 400 episodes. Every sunday I can't hardly wait for your new video.
Congratulations on the 400 video anniversary!
Thanks!
To Make People Happy + Explaining Computers. What a combination. Congrats on the 400th episode sir. Fabuloso.
Couldn't agree more!
The last thing on your list is (for me) one of the most important aspects of the computer world and why I have been playing with Linux since the Slackware days and why I started playing with Arduino controllers a few years ago. So much fun can be had learning and building things which makes me happy. Congratulations on number 400!
There are 3 YT channels I always turn to for Raspberry Pi stuff and they are EC, Jeff Geerling and leepspvideo. Learn practically all my stuff from them starting almost 7 yrs ago. My first was a Raspberry Pi 2B and I have now owned 11 of them used in OMV, MotionEye, Android OS, Volumio and Retro Gaming. EC explains things in details in a systematic style, Jeff for his exploits and humor and leepspvideo for his various tinkling with RPi accessories and OS. Kudos to all of them. Thanks and looking forward to more good things to come.
Hello, dear Chris. It's always good to share another EC video with my family. I have 4 RPi's, (3,4, two Zero2's) and I'm now playing with two Pico's. My 4, for the moment, is my family's daily driver and has been since it came out. I'm having a blast coding to metal on one of the Zero2's. That's not such an easy thing on a modern desktop, but on the little Pi, it's like the 1970's all over again. The education the kids are getting from them is fundamental and with the sad state of our schools where I live, it's an opportunity they would have otherwise been denied.
For at least the 400th time, congratulations on the 400 milestone. So much quality from one person is applause worthy. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The educational and entertainment value of the RP and other similar SBC’s is invaluable. For those like myself that simply enjoy learning and experimenting, being able to then transfer some knowledge learned, into something practical, is immeasurable. Learning how to make your own DIY water leak sensor for the hot water heater in the home, building your own low cost, highly practical NAS, media server etc. gives a person a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction that then leads into other learning projects. As stated, this can all happen without the angst of potentially ruining your main PC, or other hardware. Thanks so much Chris, for continuing to further the learning and entertainment opportunities for us all.
Thanks for ending on the right note. I'm reminded of Benjamin Franklin's response to someone who, watching the Montgolfier brothers balloon ascents, said "What good is it?" "What good is a newborn baby?" said Franklin.
Happy 10th birthday to the Pi, and happy 400th birthday to you. You don't look it!
So was that "What can I use a Raspberry Pi for?" or "What can I use a Raspberry Pi 4?"
Anyway, keep them coming, looking forward to the next 400.
Gratz on the 400th video, Chris! Thanks for all you do and continue to do.
"To make people happy". Verry much so!
Thanks for your enthousiasm Chris!
Returning to the field after a brief hiatus I discovered the pi. At the same time I discovered your channel. Per your closing statements, it simply made me happy and continues to daily. It got me through the isolation of the pandemic and re-ignited a passion for tech that had been dim for quite some time. Truly it's a product that knocks it out of the park across the board, in a million ways.
My pi is my daily driver, my dev station and a source of massive pleasure. I've done a few projects (a pi zero as well) and have a hundred more I want to do.
Your channel, is just as priceless as the pi. Thank you for everything.
I am in mid-70s and no longer well. But now developing enthusiasm for Python and hobby electronics having acquired Raspberry Pi. As you say in Video its purpose is to make me happy, stimulate my remaining grey cells and not overstretch my budget. Thank you for video.
You're last example is 1000% correct! It's fun! You don't need any other reason to use one. :-)
I absolutely love the last point!
Me too.
True! I felt like a little boy again (I'm 38) while unboxing my rpi400 and rpi pico last fall! I love them! :)
"to make people happy"..... This has been the nicest thing I've heard this year so far.
Dear Chris, I started watching your videos 9 years ago when you taught me how to build my own computer, I've since continued watching your channel grow and evolve on said computer and will continue to be a weekly viewer. One project that I've been dreaming up while watching your content is to make a custom mechanical watch winder based off of a SBC and some electric motors. Best regards from Belgium, keep up the good work!
HUGE congratulations on the 400th and on never missing a Sunday.
This is a fitting update to your previous R-Pi content and I believe this will be one of your more popular videos.
400? Wow!!
Congratulations Chris.
Happiness is an absolutely brilliant point, and often overlooked. I have a 3B that has probably had a role in all ten on your list at some point in its life, and then some. It's true, happy is the feeling when a project eventually works.
Great stuff.
I’ve known your channel since 2011! Man your channel has been getting so big! It makes my heart melt.
Wow! That's over 10 years service. Thanks for watching. :)
The best thing about the ExplainingComputers channel is that it makes people happy, myself included.
Happy 400th anniversary, 😂 400 and you are yet to miss a week
Thanks. I keep making those Sundays!
Well done on the 400th video. Great to see the channel grow over the years and hope for many more. Also, couldn't agree more on the last point of the video "to make people happy". It's always satisfying getting a project working on a pi.
How is the Argon case? I bought one and installed my pi4 in it after " upgrading" to bullseye now my hdmi connections dont work anymore I'm trying to get another Pi4 but daren't put in that case. I obviously should have done one thing at a time.
One of my interests is seeing how people get the most use out of small shop buildings or rooms. I knew nothing at all about small form computers until finding this channel. Transpose all the time people spend on their smart phones to using these sort of machines and imagine the productivity!
Happy 400th video!
I'm glad you marked the event with a Raspberry Pi feature both for the reasons you stated at the start and because as in your final suggestion, they obviously make you happy too.
All the best on your journey to the next epic milestone.
Congratulations sir on completing 400 episodes....
Thanks. I don't quite know how it happened.
@@ExplainingComputers but we do.....we just simply love the content..🙏🏼
@@ExplainingComputers I think I do,
maybe being yourself, consistent, the simplicity yet the quality of your contents,
Great video Chris. I always enjoy your videos. They are clear, direct and to the point. Congratulations on the 400th video. 👍
You're so right. For some of us just having the Pi as a "toy" is all we need.
I do not own a Raspberry Pi myself, however they have helped you to produce videos that I enjoy watching, thus making me happy. Therefor even by not owning one, they are still making me happy. So thank you Raspberry Pi and thank you Mister Explaining Computers and all of your friends like Mister Scissors for making these splendid videos.
Your videos are a technical bright spot that I look forward to every week!
Congrats on 400! All great!
I’m really late to this but your last one about just making people happy playing with it… really speaks to me. SBCs make me happy and I’m glad you brought this up to validate me.
Thank you.
We are on the same page! Thanks for watching. :)
Your final comment is philosophically important, in my opinion. Can't discredit the utility in the joy something brings!
Congratulations (and many, many thanks 🙏🏻) on 400 videos! Talk about dedication! I'd say you've earned a vacation, but I believe you genuinely enjoy creating this content and would only take a vacation if it was needed.
Congratulations on your achievement. I’ve derived a huge amount pragmatic advice on a range topics from following your videos. Well done and thank you!
Keep up the great work, your attitude and genuine interest is great to see! hope to see 400 more!
I can't say that I've seen all 400 of your videos, but every single one has been informative and entertaining. From my first encounter with the topic on SSDs and their inherent down side as an issue for their use, I was pulled down the memory rabbit hole and never looked back. Always a must for Sunday morning (or afternoon) -- this channel, Vice Grip Garage, and Ship Happens are my favourites, as I always have liked the ideas that people come up with to solve problems. SBCs have also been a topic I've liked, ever since I added a PCCHIPS 787 to my network 20 years ago. Thanks, Chris.
I use a Pi Zero to run Pi-Hole, and have that plugged directly into my router. The sheer volume of ads and tracking this thing blocks is just mind numbing. I just LOVE this thing!
Great video, a raspberry pi 5, would have been so nice for 10 years, but getting a 4 seems difficult these days, keep up the good work.
Yeh and they don't seem to be Cheap these days , especially the latest one .At least not in the UK
They're not just difficult to find. They're literally sold out worldwide. If you check out rpilocator, you'll see 3-4 hit foreign markets each day. And that's it.
I know we have a chip shortage, but this is getting ridiculous!
@@thewiirocks Wow. I did not even know about that website. Thanks for pointing it out.
@@aytviewer2421 Credit goes to Jeff Geerling. He pointed it out when I complained about the lack of Pis on the market.
I ran smack into the supply shortage when I got the bright idea of getting a GPi 2 Case. I figured I'd just pop down to the local Microcenter and grab a CM4 module. Imagine my surprise when Microcenter didn't have a single Pi! I ended up having to pay for one of 35 remaining modules with MMC on Mouser. Which would cause its own set of problems (can't use an SD card with an MMC device) but at least I got it working.
On the bright side, I learned that CM4s are amazing! They come in box the size of a matchbox and snap into whatever project board you want. Waveshare has cheap boards with all the I/O of an RPi 4, but also with NVMe slots and other goodies not present on the official RPi boards. I'm really loving these things!
Great Chris, congratulations for all your achievements, looking forward for more of you videos in the future.
Congratulations on your 400th video! Thank you for those and keep up the good work. I have learned a great deal from you and I'm rather grateful for that.
As for the Raspberry Pi, I own a 3B+, two 4's, two Zero W's and a Zero 2, which I use in different projects. At the moment, I'm looking for a Zero WH for a new project, as I'm useless at soldering (maybe you should do a video on that!), but finding one is proving to be a fool's errand. Maybe I'll have to wait for Raspberry Pi's 12th anniversary - by then people should have stopped hoarding RPi's and reselling them at obscene prices.
You are so right about the happiness factor. I sometimes wonder how many kids and grown-ups get as I excited as I do when I get a new one. Silly, I know ... but happy, nevertheless.
Congratulations on your 400th Episode! That’s quite an accomplishment to be proud of. I was brand new to RPi’s at the beginning of 2020, and learned a lot from your channel. To your last point about Happiness, I ABSOLUTELY AGREE with you! Learning Linux on the RaspberryPi during lockdown brought me so many fond memories and feelings of when I was first learning about computers over 40 years ago!, And now, just as in those early days, I’m once again mesmerized with everything I’ve learned, from Linux to Kubernetes, all because of this wonderful SBC! Thanks again and looking forward to the next 400 episodes. -Darla
Oooh. Another video from EC! :)
They keep coming around!
A very useful video Chris. Some people simply think it's a slow PC (but they're completely missing the point) as you've demonstrated in this video. Plus the fact is you can afford to buy several of these cheap computers and give them a unique task, to buy several PC's is so much more expensive, takes up much more room, noisy (Pi computers can run silent) and more expensive to run.
Your video incites feelings of hunger...as in when cooking shows show quick video production cuts of recipes that result in delicious gourmet food ready to eat in 5 minutes of TV viewing time! Yummmm Raspberry Pi! (p.s. I used to be overweight).
Had a Pi for years now and ive done squat with it ... All i did was put it into a NesPi case (was cheap and looked cool) and put in my retro games collection and left it . This has given me some new ideas for repurposing it.. Thanks . Grats on the 400th video mate . Cheers .
this is great. i specially liked "make people happy!" . and may i add, the Pi is also a cheap & easy way of learning to use all SBCs -
you can get a Pi zero W , small SD card and pretty much get started. no HDMI monitor? no problem, run it headless. and on the way, learn some about the Linux terminal.
happy 400!
Well done and congrats on this landmark point for the channel. Always informative and entertaining
Hey Chris, congrats for 400. I've been here from the mini Green atom pc. I also enjoy your sd card videos (both the old and updated one) as well. Ever since then I've been watching your channel. You explain computers perfectly for me to understand. Thank you for making the youtube videos over the years, and I hope that there are many more to come!
This channel is so underrated. Please keep up the good work, Sir.
Congrats on the 400! 😊
I got a clocked Pi in Argon case. It’s great to browse the web and do office stuff. Also learning about hacking with linux. Hard to believe you can do all this with something that costs so little, and fits in the palm of your hand.
Thanks Chris, love your videos 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Congratulations on your 400th video. A celebration of the uses of the Raspberry PI was a good choice for it. I have been a subscriber for about three or four years, and I still look forward each Sunday morning for new video on the channel. Keep up the good work!
Congratulations on the 400th video, Mr. Christopher Barnatt. Thank you for the quality content you put on here over the years. I have learned a lot from your channel. It’s a gift to people like me. Thank you again.
Raspberry products are hard to come by these days. I was looking forward to adding to my collection for building additional projects but that might be a while. It is a great tool to learn Linux, Python, and tinkering around. You are right about the enjoyment one derives from this product. Thank you for your videos. They are great. Keep up the good work.
Currently using my Raspberry Pi 4 8GB for various things from Pi-Hole DNS Adblocking to a Pterodactyl server, but my favourite use case like you mentioned is shoving a clean SD card into the Raspberry Pi and testing different applications and software without fear of breaking my personal system.
did the same for garyexplains tftpd /nfs server, booting 1 pi4 with software sourced over the intranet from another pi4. was quite fast, both connected to gigabit switch and the internet.
My Pi 1 does the Pi-hole duties and my Pi 3B+ does the retrogaming, my Pi 4 does pretty much everything else.
"We shouldn't miss the importance of that" What a powerful choice of meaningful words! I like that you reconsidered the ranked list for this one as well. Love your videos sir!
Congratulations on your 400th episode! Love your content,live your presentation style and love Stanley the knife. Keep up the outstanding work, Chris!
Great video, with some great ideas. I quite agree the raspberry pi has given many hours of pleasure just tinkering and learning.
Congrats! 400 videos! Thank you for teaching me so much and for making the world of computers more accessible.
Congratulations on your 400th issue of ec-videos Chris.
You are also making people, including myself, happy.
Keep up the good work!
400 videos, what a jouney! I had a moment in my life where I lost my passion and interest for computers. I maybe was just too tired of things. You channel was always a nice way to bring back that excitement and the sparkle in your eyes lit mine too. Thank you for everything!
I like the last reason. The reason why I use Linux, take an interest in my hardware in the PC and like to make upgrades....and generally cause unintentional minor catastrophes for myself. I like the idea as well of using one as a mini NAS.
watching from philippines
Wow, 400 videos! Considering the quality content put into every video you do, this is an amazing accomplishment! Thank you Chris, for your huge contribution to our community and for being a great example in many ways! 🎉🎂🎈🍻
Congratulations on you 400th EC video and congratulations to Raspberry Pi for its 10th anniversary! We really appreciate your content and presentation, Christopher. 🧡
Mr. Scissors was a poet and I didn't even know it. 🙂
I have used Raspberry Pis as small desktop computers, server, retro gamer, learning platform, and just because they make me happy to play with them. It shows that you and many of us here are products of the early 8-bit home computing days. "To make people happy" is a noble goal all by itself and I am pleased that you included it as the concluding use in the video.
Here is to many more videos and happy days. 🎉
Another fun use for the wonderful raspberry pi is a 'pirate radio station'. But just to play around; we don't want any problems with the law.
If only Amazon would finally send me the Pi4b 4GB I had ordered almost two months ago (at recommended retail price). 😕️
I'll cross my fingers for you.
@@ExplainingComputers Thanks
Congratulations, welcome to the 400 clubs. I love everyone I have ever watched.
Congrats on the 400th video! Apart from the fact that Rapsberry Pi makes people happy, your videos do make people happy too. I haven't been around for a while and I miss that. I have learned a lot of facts on this channel over the time although I should report that I haven't experimented with any of the facts yet. I think I will change that in the future. Thank you for your invaluable videos Chris!
For usage like automation, RPi is certainly overpowered. Arduino or ESP8266 module is well enough.
Congratulations on your 400th video, Chris & well done!.
I would also like to add yet another use category - Ham Radio & some examples of what I use mine are noted below:
1. Portable RasPi 4 with an Argon case, 256GB SSD running Jason's KM4ACK image which easily interfaces to modern radios like the Icom IC-705
2. RasPi 3 with a MMDVM HAT running "PiStar" for DMR (Digital Mobile Radio) including cross-mode digital communications
3. RasPi 2 running "Ham Clock" from Clear Sky Institute
RaspberryPi SBCs are 100% fun and very simple to use
Chris, congratulations on 400 episodes, and a perfect choice of subject for No 400. Looking forward to many more!
many congratulations Chris on your 400th episode; you really are an ambassador par excellence for the humble Raspi pi. Number 10 is a superb, fully warranted & completely left-field entrant into a top-ten-uses list which i'm guessing not many of us saw coming. Please do keep on with the advocacy
Happy 400th! Raspberry Pis make me smile. I use them around the house as internet radios, for software defined radio listening, watching media and exploring various operating systems.
I totally agree about the “last two things” clip in your video. I retired as a “software engineer” in 1998. During the time I worked in the computer field, programmers were given various titles. It was before universities were producing computer science graduates. During my retirement, I did attempt to keep pace with advances in the computer field since I am tech support for family and friends. In 2015, I learned of the Raspberry Pi and I bought a Raspberry Pi 2 kit. I had never heard of Python and had never used Linux. Since then, I have added a 14 RPis and two Rock64s to my collection. I have made inroads into relearning how to code and using the terminal in Linux reminds me of the MSDOS and CP/M days. I’ve also delved into the Arduino world. I’ve had to resurrect my soldering equipment and skills.
400 videos have made me happy. Thanks Chris !!!
Congratulations! 400, wow!
I've been using raspberry Pi4 for my primary Home Assistant server, and it is absolutely fantastic. I would include it in the top 10.
Wish you all the best and stay safe!
Congrats on your 400th TH-cam video and on educating so many people on so many useful topics. Your steadfastness, creativity and generosity are inspiring.
The last reason was the best one. Beautifully described, it made me smile. Thank you and congratulations on your 400th video. We are lucky to have benefitted from your output.
Congrats on 400! Haven’t subscribed for all that long but enjoy the content. Looking forward to another 400!
Congratulations on 400 videos Chris!!! And i love the video you choose to celebrate! Thank you so much for all your work and dedication, i have learnt so much with you, and at the same time really enjoy it.
Congratulations Mr. Barnatt, Mr. Scissors and Stanley. Always enjoying your videos as a good start into the week. And I underline the importance of having fun with the Pi instead of always searching the fly in the soup. I wish you all the best for the next 400
This video truly made me happy. Thanks again, Chris, for being the awesome tech enthusiast/geek/teacher that you are. And I am sure all your followers, like me, are really looking forward to the next 400 videos!
1st off, congratulations on hitting 400 videos. I'm looking forward to the next 400! [confession, I havent watched all 400..] lol. Anyways, I really wanted to comment on and commend you on your presentation style and your ability to give the right amount of "hype" and importance to the things and subjects you cover, and you never over-do (so far as I can tell) any your emphasis on things that you are obviously excited to be covering.
For what it's worth, you've become a voice of reason and discernment and a go-to resource for me when I'm trying to understand a particular Tech-related concept. .. And bless you for the rest of Time for doing your quick and to the point "Like, Subscribe, etc etc" at the VERY end of your videos.
Cheers!
I have really enjoyed your videos over the years and especially during the lockdowns when I had more time to tinker with my Raspberry Pi 3B+. So, it was with great joy to see your 400th video dedicated to the Pi - thank you! And yes, I fall into the 10th category of user: I have a Pi because it makes me happy! I have become used to the Terminal commands and out of necessity and with growing confidence I also managed to convert an old Windows laptop into a Linux laptop (first with Ubuntu, then dual booting with Cinammon Mint and more recently just running Pop OS! which my daughters love). Thank you for everything that you do for enthusiasts and newbies alike ... and I'm looking forward to the next 400 videos.
:)
Congratulations and thanks for the four hundredth episode! You'll have to ask an old musical group to revisit one of their hits with a new title... "Happiness Is A Cool Raspberry Pi"!
Congratulations on your 400th video. Your videos are informative, entertaining and have inspired me to learn new things that I thought I was too old to learn. Good job and thanks for all the work you put into your videos.
Congrats on your 400th video! I look forward to them every week. Here’s to many more!
On to 400 more! Love the content. The quality, the camerawork, the content - all excellent. Gives me a great feeling of British daytime tv nostalgia.
Congratulations on your 400th EC video! You are my favorite TH-cam channel and I appreciate all the work you put into each video. Looking forward to your next video!
Thanks Perry. :)
My main use is the last one for sure, and it’s pleasant to hear someone saying that yout hobby is really a normal hobby. Great video mate, I really appreciate all of your videos! Hope your channel grow up more and more, so people can get addicted to it like me!
Thanks for watching! :)
Congratulations on reaching this milestone!
I really appreciate the effort you've put into making these videos, and the focus on SBC-s is what's kept me interested for a while now. Wish you all the best!
Congrats on 400 videos!! I forget precisely when I discovered your channel, but it's been many years. I probably haven't seen all 400 of them, but I know I've seen a very large majority of them. Thanks for the work you do!
