Rustbucket Pioneer CT-W504R Auto NR cassette deck restoration
Restoring a rusty but trusty 1995 Pioneer cassette deck with a unique "Auto NR" feature that attempts to automatically detect which Dolby NR system (if any) a tape was recorded with. **VIDEO LINKS BELOW (CLICK SHOW MORE):**
Its successor, Pioneer's cassette decks with Digital NR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v14AEKgX29U

aiptek-a-hd-camcorder-audio-quality-test
Voice audio quality test of the Aiptek A-HD+ camcorder while in video mode.
You will not see the fully HD image quality because I created this video clip through capture of its composite analog video/audio output. For some reason, if I try to directly upload to YouTube the H.264 video files that the Aiptek stores on its flash memory drive when recording, YouTube does not show the correct aspect ratio and does not make the video available in "High Quality" resolution.

EARLY
early-youtube-number-accounts
Something funny and interesting I discovered. Starting at 00, 01, 02, 03, etc., and counting up numerically, there are a whole bunch of early YouTube accounts created in 2005. Almost all of them have never posted any videos, and haven't signed in over 4 years, but yet they each have hundreds of subscribers -- and many have the same exact subscribers.
I don't know how high these "number accounts" go up to, but out of the first 30, I could only find one that actually seems to be active. Was this an early attempt by YouTube to boost their total number of users? Or did these serve as numerical placeholders on their servers, for some archane technical reason? Who knows...

vintage-ge-flash-bulbs
Before xenon flash tubes, there were flash bulbs. They can only be used once and are rather dangerous, but a lot more fun! Old-time photographers probably reminisce about the smoke and fragrant smell these things give off, but not the leg burns caused by a flash bulb in your pocket going off due to static electricity (or so I've heard)!
