I don't imagine many folks in the Fediverse crowd will learn much here, but I've got a new video to show your boomer parents
@TechConnectify bro you're the only YouTuber I know that has been stable on the fediverse, not like many others that are only on Bluesky or they have fedi accounts that don't update in years
@TechConnectify
Will your car-themed video serie also cover how cars are now literally computer networks on wheels?
@TechConnectify this was an OUTSTANDING video. As with all your videos, I learned so much about a topic I thought I already understood.
@TechConnectify Haven't seen the video yet, will there be an "Everything's computer" joke in there? 🤣
@Darkroux I was quite tempted but decided not to
@TechConnectify I probably won't, but I've also been a mechanic for 25 years...
@TechConnectify actually saying that about software being done, I believe some cars are sold with a software upgrades that increase horse power, and I guess it's only doing that with advanced timings or even just allowing power to go so high.
@TechConnectify Just watched it. Yup, all fair calls. I (50) remember learning about points and distributor caps and timing from dad in ~1985. And yes, it works, and yes, it's easy to fix, and yes, in a zombie apocalypse that's how my tractor should work cos I don't care about efficiency and do care about bodgeability.
But for the average car in the last 30 years? Yeah, fair enough.
@TechConnectify it's so incredibly cool that a creator with 3M subscribers on youtube specifically addresses 50K subscribers on Fedi and also calls us a crowd. Dude, you're the best!
@TechConnectify Even though I've been an auto hobbyist for years - having rebuilt engines/transmissions and even custom tuned ECUs for a variety of platforms - I've still been watching your auto series and often learn something. Great stuff and from one Midwesterner to another, keep it up!
I don't have boomer parents, because I am one myself. I haven't bought a dinosaur juice engine in 26 years. #EV
@TechConnectify I love watching your videos, no matter the subject matter. Thanks for taking the time to post here!
@TechConnectify I’ll probably enjoy watching it regardless!
Especially since that engine control gizmo isn’t connected to the internet, right? RIGHT?
@TechConnectify I have a couple small boys. Sometimes they sit and watch your videos. I think they like your voice. It always feels like a win!
@TechConnectify there is always something to learn from your views of technical things.
Thank you for this quality youtube time.
@TechConnectify you give us too much credit, there's a lot in that video I didn't know and appreciate you presenting.
