I’m talking YouTube channels with a few thousand views, streamers with single digit viewers, writers who only get a few reads on their submissions.
Since the fediverse is all about boosting connection to smaller voices, let’s share the love!
I was looking through all the YT channels I subscribe to and most of them have millions of views per video. But if you’re into fishing, there is a channel called 1fish2fish. It’s a younger husband and wife on the East Coast. They have some great videos that have really helped me up my fishing game and taught me a lot and they’re fun to watch.
It isn’t exactly low thousands, but I followed it since they had about 2000 subscribers.
My wife told me to put my channel here, but I won’t plug :)
But seriously though, I love the content from 4hardy! For AOE fans he’s a legend: https://www.youtube.com/@4Hardy
Don’t mind if I do! Also, feel free to suggest more ideas + feedbacks. https://www.youtube.com/@FancyGUI
Very pertinent to my current field- lots of version control issues where I work that containerizing could solve more elegantly.
I’ll check out the videos and see if I can learn something!
You know how modern semiconductor components are made in billion-dollar fabs? Well, you can actually make them in a garage, at least simple ones.
Wait this is incredible.
I don’t even know how to hold a hammer correctly let alone solder a chip, but I might have to try a new hobby.
Damn, he’s got a lot of equipment though. I was hoping I could just setup a jig with 2x4s and melt sand with a blowtorch
Most of it isn’t strictly necessary. Like, he has sputtering equipment for making layers that can’t be chemically deposited for example. The one where he makes a MOSFET on camera involves just spin coating with tape and some random motor, a little tube furnace to bake impurities in and chemical etching IIRC.
He uses commercially available blank wafers; you’d need a small arc furnace (or at least a blast furnace and patience when your product is mostly iron) to make silicon from sand and something resembling a meth lab to clean it (and then you’d grow and cut your wafer, but that could be done on a desk I’m sure).
