I get it, it's the sponsor, but saying that the rubber coating on that SSD helps dissipate heat kinda rubbed me the wrong way, that's exactly the opposite of what rubber is good at...
0:37 That's a lie. They did have piracy protection. Unfortunately for them , it was easy to crack . All you had to do was burn a program that ran in front of the game image and the dreamcast would detect it as an official game . If you simply just made a copy of an official game , it would not work . Most pirated games that where downloaded off the internet already included the boot loader program with the image file so all you had to do was burn it onto a cd.
There is some mystery about it though, the Dreamcast did have some fairly complex trickery for obfuscating the game files, and it should’ve been impossible to reverse engineer it. But there’s some evidence that a Dreamcast developer sneakily gave the technique to the pirates, even though officially the pirates just managed to track down a used Devkit and figured it out using the manuals that came with it.
I literally just got the T7 Shield SSD from Amazon during Prime Day…and here it is again! Little sucker feels super solid, glad I was able to get a good deal.
I have a Dreamcast currently in my living room that came from Japan and I put in a GD-emu to make it so I can play games off an SD card. It's hooked up via VGA to Old CRT flat glass monitor. It's beautiful.
Japan's love of the MIL-CD (Music Interactive Live CD) format really allowed the hackers to run wild. Later versions of the Dreamcast actually removed this function and thus you always gotta watch out for those consoles produced later because all your homebrew releases won't work!
I also had a PS1 childhood but some friends in high school had the absolute Dreamcast drip back then. Sure PS1 had Tekken but Soul Calibur was so visually striking it's like an arcade-at-home, which was a big deal back then. And since Sega was totally about the arcades back then I saw Dreamcast as the elite platform. Now decades later and I rebought a PS1, plus a Dreamcast for the childhood I never had.
For the Sega Dreamcast, the comment about the disks is slightly inaccurate. They used GD-ROMs(an abbreviation of "Gigabyte Disc Read-Only Memory"). It was developed by Yamaha to curb piracy common to standard CDs and to offer increased storage capacity without the expense of the fledgling DVD-ROM. At the time that the Dreamcast came out, no personal home computer was capable of writing a GD-ROM. You could write a CD-ROM, which was maxed out at 700 MiB(not enough to accommodate the data for a Dreamcast game) or a DVD-ROM(incompatible for the Dreamcast). But without the proper compression personal home computers were unable to write GD-ROM data in an understandable format for the Dreamcast. So it actually was an effective means of stopping piracy on that console for the time.
"my son was made on this table"
Caught me off guard💀
Cuts to a zoom-in of his 💀
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE okay.
apparently we needed proof @@lazer1036
Hopes and dreams were made in that table
More than we need to know
that mouse thicc
@Don't Read My Profile Photo I didn’t
Its thocc
Damn booooooiiiiiiiiiiii
@Don't Read My Profile Photo okay then
@@-Perplexing thocc is for keyboards my guy
I love how happy robotraptor was the whole time
Scam above
Man I was just thinking this... Roboraptor made this day worth it tbh...
He was so stoked for mystery tech
@@GigaChadFromDiscord just see me
His little dances were adorable :D
"It said shake it vigorously to get off the excess water"
"That's a different.... light"
I legit lost it laughing when I heard that!
i immediately thought of shake weights during that segment haha
@@HitMarkersAreFun ….
And it squirted some salty... water?
Man seeing that Dreamcast just brought back sooooo many memories...I'm just here for the nostalgia trips👌🏻👌🏻
“Here’s a sponsor item we’ve used for TEN YEARS” *proceeds to be amazed by its rubber shell and read/write capability and use like they’ve never seen them before*
Also implying that rubber is a conductor and will help cool it? Come on Austin
I think he means he's been using their external ssd for 10 years. The rubberised model is newer.
does Jono work for Austin now? Lol
I was thinking the same thing. Come to think of it, I have not heard him in the background of short circuit in a while
No, I was just hanging out
@@BurntBanana ayyy, the dude himself! You should've told Austin to play "Crab Rave" for the headset test tho.
@@BurntBanana all good man just didnt expect to see you
He totally brought the Sony stuff from LTT and let Austin do a video with them.
This channel has to be one of the most entertaining out here. I’m surprised they haven’t passed 10mill subs yet.
I'd say the same thing I love watching Austin
@@WOTI9999 I know, they deserve more..
actually the Dreamcast used GD-ROM as a disc format and they were 1 GB per cd
Yeah, the PS2 uses standard CDs & DVDs
🤓
Hello Timmy Turner.
I blame games like Shenmue and D2.
A lot of "backups" could fit on CD, though some games required the removal of video and audio files
Despite the general consensus, the Dreamcast did have copy protection, it was just really bad and easily bypassed.
IKR? It also could read both CDs and the proprietary GD ROMs.
It wasn't actually bad, the hackers were just quick to crack
What's the point of spending a lot of time trading, taking risks, if there is Cross Staking ?
why was jono there at 12:53
"A DREAMCAST!!!!!"
Evan sounded so happy
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE shutup
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE SHUTUP
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE Shutmouth
you mean Austin?
Jono just chilling is what I came here for
Damn straight
There probably going to open pokemon cards together lol
Wait what is Jono doing here. linus probably hasn't noticed he's missing 😂
Spoiler alert I guess :D .
I'm inclined to think that Jono was taking a paid leave or some sort of break and took the opportunity to visit Overclocked Media. 😳
So entertaining. This channel deserve more than 10 mil subs. Keep up the good work Austin and the whole team.
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE your creator deserves the death sentence
12:40 what kind of crossover is this now
I'm not the only one that noticed Jono 🤣
Jono Left LTT... so I guess he went to work with Austin and gang...
A wild Jono appears
@@stephenwillis9769 did he really?
It was fun, but I was just hanging out
> But this nice rubber finish, I bet is gonna help to kinda dissipate some of that heat.
> rubber
> insulator
I mean, it’s not too thick a coating so it’ll transfer _some_ heat but the regular bare metal versions fare better.
The PS5 cooler video established that Austin has very little understanding of physics. especially pertaining to thermodynamics
YES was just watching other mystery tech then got the notification let’s go!
thanks Austin ❤️
@Don't Read My Profile Photo what ever you say stranger!
It totally got ❤️ted…
NGL i'm still laughing like hell when Ken said "it's the cult classic, The wheels on the bus" XD 😂😂
You should go over retro game consoles from Amazon
Austin : we legitimately used it for almost 10 years
Also austin 6:10 : discovering the material 😂😂😂
NGL when I first saw the pictures of the Samsung t7 ssd
I was like "WHY DID SAMSUNG MAKE A BAR OF SOAP"
0:26 This has the same energy as Doofenshmirtz saying "Perry the Platypus?!”
I get it, it's the sponsor, but saying that the rubber coating on that SSD helps dissipate heat kinda rubbed me the wrong way, that's exactly the opposite of what rubber is good at...
Yeahh, i don't know if Austin's team came up with that, or if Samsung did, but either way that's very misleading
12:21 Having one side of the headset stretched while the other is not instead of having both at equals level made me wanna rip my eyes out lol
"It's the fucking colt classic the wheels on the bus" I'M DEAD 💀💀🤣🤣
Wheels on the bus is a certified hood classic
Is that Jono from LTT?

The way he said "thats my Dreamcast" it was actually really funny
Austin: My son was made on this desk!
Also Austin: chips the desk with the ssd and doesn’t care
*Most durable SSD*
Ken be like: Let's not throw it
I’ve never agreed with Austin more than about microusb being prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Only a few people will know this video was originally titled "I bought the world's biggest mouse for mystery tech"
I mean that was a pretty big keyboard but a BIGGER ONE exists.
12:38 WTF I didn't expect Jono to be there lol 😂😂
Damn Austin has started the conspiracy of luring Lmg ppl and make them work for him... its the ultimate flex on linus lol
The Sega Dreamcast box looks like a FLIR photo of the dreamcast overheating.
I literally just got the T7 Shield SSD from Amazon during Prime Day…and here it is again!
Little sucker feels super solid, glad I was able to get a good deal.
0:25 When Perry The Platypus give Dr. Doofenshmirtz A Sonic Adventure for The Dreamcast
I feel like channels that do this stuff are exclusively keeping wish in business. 😂
this channel never fails to entertain me
@Don't Read My Profile Photo grow up
@DONT READ MY PROFILE PICTURE grow up
Bot
@@noreik222 definitely a bot 🤖 lmao 🤣
Monsieur Evans
Austin: "Do you know what memories have been made on this table, Ken?"
Me out loud: "Ew!"
“I didn’t know you bend like that… are you okay?”
I love how johno just appeared and we didn't question it
This is so chaotic and I love it
The "that's a different light" comment killed me. good stuff. i needed that laugh.
0:24 doofenschmirz getting sonic adventure for the dream cast be like:
0:25 I guess.. Austin can also be the voice for Dr. Doofenshmirtz, just if Dan Povenmire get's tired of it
I love when characters form other channels make appearances
I have a Dreamcast currently in my living room that came from Japan and I put in a GD-emu to make it so I can play games off an SD card. It's hooked up via VGA to Old CRT flat glass monitor. It's beautiful.
i love mystery tech these videos are so mood lifting
Mr crabs money timing was on point
That samsung ssd shell looks exactly like what that pandora box comes in now
Austin: *sees Dreamcast*
Also Austin: *transends*
"Oh, jeez I didn't know you could bend like that" got me laughing. LOL

Never stop with your over the top comedies! LoL amazing I love it
Uncle from another world would be proud.

"We used this for years" Also didnt know it was made of rubber
The T7 shield for me is one of the best portable drives I ever had and it held trough a LOT OF accidental abuse
Literally every monitor have KVM now, the inzone monitor has nothing special
That monitor stand is beyond stupid.
Me in every fighting game: 3:52
12:40 That's the guy from Short Circuit, right? 😅
Yeah seems to be jono
Not Austin misrepresenting how the Dreamcast discs worked.
i want to see Shaq using those normal sized mouse and keyboard
These guys are so silly 😁 14:59 I didn't know he could bend like that. 😂
12:38 uh why is johno from short circuit there 😂
this series should be called ROBO RAPTOR AND THE MISTERY TECH or smthn like that.
We've being using this for literally 10 years......opens box.....ohhh its rubbery. What have you been using?

That Samsung SSD looks like some kind of chewing gum thou
12:37 is that Jono from LTT?
Has to be
Dude just sounded like Doofenshmirts! Plus Austin needs to get a belt holster for his phone instead of keeping it in his pocket.
"IT'S SOOO SALTY" xD lmao
This is one of my favorite series on youtube.
3:13 “My son was made on this table” 😦
00:26 his voice went full Doofenshmirtz..
Everyday this not just technology channel it's entertaining channel too 😂
roboraptor needs his own channel.
15:00 the pose
Austin: We have used these for the past 10 years.
Also Austin: 6:09
Roboraptor was the real star of the video, ngl. 😄
Step Bro - Hey step sis how much can you handle?
Step Sis - 10:55
Robo Raptor!!! Lets freaking go!!!
300 Hundred dollars for headphones but you can buy skullcandys for 80 bucks
I did not expect to see Jono chilling in the back. I did check to see if i was actually watching techlinked....
That flashlight looks like a jumbo obi wan kenobi lightsaber
3:13 your what lol
DAMN NUMBER 1
imagine someone hacking into your Robo babysitter and blasting memes...
Air traffic control 😂😂
14:59 goddamn Austin got the dumptruck 🥵
Why was the dude from LTT there lol
That ominous pikachu at 4:59 😳
I get goosebumps when hearing the Dreamcast startup.
