Louis: I'm depressed and don't wanna make videos Also Louis: Puts out top tier edited and well lit video in which he's excited about not wearing a mask and fixing a Macbook
Louis, you might not consider yourself a millionaire... but the fact that you can afford a burrito in NY means you are one as far as the rest of the world is concerned...
This video is therapeutic for Louis. It’s his chance to vent, without punching out a human. MacBooks don’t fight back (unless they shock the shit out of him).
I'm not a millionaire because when I was young and arrogant, I thought I knew it all. As a result, made bad decisions. I go over them in detail in these two videos. Had I managed these opportunities better, I could've been a millionaire: ruclips.net/video/9VYmQQ9BKpE/видео.html ruclips.net/video/w3c2dOw6Frg/видео.html It's easy to lie to myself & say that I do what I do *only* because I am a virtuous person, rather than out of self interest. It's equally tempting to tell myself that I could be more successful if I were evil, but that I am not more successful because I choose to be a "good" person. Some of the worst atrocities are committed by people who believe they are good people. Everyone has an ego, which makes it easy to fall into these traps. I do my best to be realistic about who I am, why I am where I am, and why I do what I do.

Hey, glad you're back. I don't have time to watch this video right now but it brings me joy just to see it on my feed. Sounded like you were burned out the other day. It happens to the best of us, and I know it sucks when it does. It's pretty understandable to be in a weird spot mentally with everything going on. Cheers to you, and thank you for the education you've shared on right to repair and technical skills.
Hope all has been well Louis! Don't feel like you have to make videos whenever it feels more like a chore, most of your subscribers will be absolutely okay with that even though we may miss the content a little bit. Don't burn yourself out man!
There are soldering practice kits available on Amazon. After being out of the electronics repair business and not soldering a thing for fifteen years, when I decided to make building and repairing electronics a hobby, I needed something to see if I still had the skills. A cheap but professional soldering station and soldering practice kits from Amazon and I had my answer. A little practice was all I needed.
That's the difference between love and caring love. If you don't care about them and how their life is, you don't love them. So important to care about their life more than your own.
I don't understand anything of what electronics or what he's doing, but it is so soothing to watch him work on these machines. Whenever I feel uptight, I come here and watch Louis fix a Mac.Something relaxing about this I can't understand.
Had to lookup vimeo, are they charging for bandwidth on top of storage or is it unlimited? Okay, so they don't unless you're using more than 99% of bandwidth compared to other users. So basically they're overcharging for storage to cover their bottom line while providing load balancing, walled garden, storage, etc. Tbh you could probably host your own for a tenth of the price
I’m glad you were able to get a new space that fits your company. I’ve enjoyed your honesty that if I ever have repair needs for my Mac stuff, I’m going straight to you first
I'm really glad to see you back, Louis. We may not agree on everything but there's one thing that is indisputable: your great insight. Thank you for what you do.
Don't take this the wrong way I don't mean you're boring but I love watching your videos of cleaning up mac it makes me feel relaxed and it helps me sleep better
I worked briefly for a large contract over-night repair facility for business computers (mostly Acer, but also other brands.) This brings back nightmares. *_NO ONE_* wanted to work on the "foreign substance" machines. That meant one thing and one thing only: business men alone in a hotel with their laptop when it "suddenly stopped working." Did I mention I only worked there briefly? I don't know how you do it, Louis.
Louis, I would look into Wasabi S3 Storage through PAX 8. Our company gets 5Tb a month for around $7 dollars. This is only if you need a data repository. They don't change egress fees either.
Hmm, doesn't get much cheaper. It's $ 0.023 / GB / month. So that would be $ 276 / TB / year. And you'll have to add your additional costs like bandwidth and cpu/ram usage.
$400 a year for one TB can be dirt cheap or very expensive, depending on how the data is stored. Most people think $300 buys you a 10TB hdd, buy three and you have enough to store the 21TB of videos. Just connect these disks via USB to a raspberry-pi and a cheap internet-connections and you have Eugene's video hosting service. But it isn't so easy, you want some redundancy and therefore you need more disks. So buy six of them. But they need to be installed in a Server and that server needs a place in a data center. But now you also need a backup and it should also have some redundancy. Twelve disks and two servers and the space in a data center. Now you need only some content delivery network that offloads the distribution of the videos from your server. This would be the absolute minimal setup. In reality the setups can be much more complicated. Data should be available on different servers, so it is often stored in a software defined storage cluster. Such a cluster consists of many servers full of disks, a separate high speed ethernet and every block of data is stored with triple redundancy distributed over different nodes. If a node fails, there needs to be enough free storage in the cluster to recreate the triple-redundancy. Then you need redundant backup-storage that stores at least another two copies of the data. At this point the 20TB data are actually 100TB of storage space. Often the storage clusters have off-site mirrors in which case there will be another three copies. And copies don't happen out of nothing, they need bandwidth and cpu-cycles to create and maintain them. And you need people who keep the machinery running. Suddenly $400 a year for a TB doesn't sound as expensive.
Dave Jones from EEVblog often recommends lbry and I started to watch his videos there. I didn't look into the technical details of this service but it seems to work for him (and many others) and it works for me as viewer.
Tbh for like 170/m you can just rent a dedicated from heizner with like 24tb storage and just selfhost with something like jellyfin for streaming. If you want quality/scalability just do it yourself essentially.
There are now self-hosted video platforms! Like PeerTube. You could just put a server with 10TB raided storage (quite cheap) in your office, and that's it. Have any quality you want to.
on libry you can now do highres original quality long form.. they just started and for someone as big as you.. they would import it.. they did for my videos ;)
Louis, the airgun blew the LED driver chip at 20:00 but I think it rotated when you put it back by 90-degrees counter-clockwise. How can you tell the orientation of these square chips when the writing gets burned off?
Does COVID allow UPS drivers to refuse to leave packages with the recipients? If you live in a security building with a directory shouldn’t the UPS driver push the button on the directory with your unit number to let you know they are there?
Dude people need to stop giving shit and stop doubting you,I've used your techniques and they actually work and also I agree,I feel that customer service for a lot businesses are going to shit.
Put a dedicated server in your office. Store your full length videos on your personal server with a personal website. Post to youtube short ‘highlight’ videos with links to your website for full length videos.
the term millionaire isnt to describe how much money you have in the case of what google is saying its just the estimated value of all your assets added together and ig the number was over a million
I can't see if someone already suggested this, or maybe you already know about this, but Floatplane might be viable option to span out. It probably is the exact thing people refer as the Linus video thingy, as it is by the Linus Media Group, but it began from the idea that maybe RUclips is not just worth it anymore in the future, so that may be considerable option to check.
Yes but was the chip installed so that it's pin 1 doesn't line up with the correct track on the board? Only way I know of where upside down visually (ie it's not oriented the same way as the rest of the IC's on the board) is important.
I hope you're doing well Louis. After watching some of your videos you have made me become interested in this device repair stuff. Would be cool to do what you do.

You need to call up Linus and get him to make you a 30 terabyte in office server
He's gonna drop the hard drives anyway.
That is only two hard drives.
The in-office server would be nice, but Louis really needs one in a data center for his back library too.
He's built a few 130 terabyte video storage servers and I think even a petabyte
@@pidiabloo a second petabyte because he ran out of storage

If you need a full backup, just host it on a cloud provider (aws, azure, ...). Someonw may even write a webpage around it when the files are public.
Hmm, doesn't get much cheaper. It's $ 0.023 / GB / month. So that would be $ 276 / TB / year. And you'll have to add your additional costs like bandwidth and cpu/ram usage.
