    Dear @Eventbrite, I have an account, so please make sure it is not possible for other people to sign me up for events with only my email address. I've been added to dozens of events over the last two weeks and it's an interesting new vector for spam. @EventbriteHelp

    In case you missed it, I posted a video with my 10 favorite tech/video purchases from 2021 on my YouTube!

    I included only things that I actually bought myself, not including anything that was sent to me to review. I did get to review a lot of great gear too but that will be for another video.

    Here's to another year of livestreams and video production!

    Fellow conference speakers! I'm tired of posting my slides on Speakerdeck, I want to host them on my own website.

    What awesome tools are there for doing this in a way that looks as close to Speakerdeck as possible? I'm thinking maybe an old-school JS slideshow viewer?

    Just used this handy XKCD chart to determine that it was finally time to build a web interface on top of this little PHP script that generates PDFs of checks, rather than continuing to hack up this code by hand every time I need to print one. https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/is_it_worth_the_time_2x.png

  • How to convert USB webcams to HDMI

    There are a handful of interesting USB webcams out there, which naturally work great with a computer. But what if you want to combine video from a USB webcam with your HDMI cameras in a video switcher like the ATEM Mini?

    In late 2019 I stuck a raspberry pi and e-paper display in a picture frame and made it show my upcoming travel plans. Now it is just blank. What should I use it for now?

    I think this is the first time the "elevator" on a plane has made sense to me!

    Too bad it has nothing to do with the quadcopters I want to fly but I need to learn it for the test anyway πŸ˜…

    software you've purchased that auto-updates to a new version and makes you buy a new license is worse than software that is just a straight subscription model, just saying

    If you just finished watching The Matrix Resurrections, next go watch Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. You won't regret it I promise.

    Setting some 2022 YouTube channel goals and making stickers to track my progress!

    Now that I have an online shop set up I put these 4x6" sheets up for sale there so you can buy them too! (Sorry only shipping to the US for now until I can figure out international taxes!)

    Each sticker is about a half inch and the sheet includes each 1K from 1K-72K or 73K-144K.

    You can find them here in my online shop if you'd like to order them!

    New year new rack!

    I just moved all my gear from my desk into this 20U rack! There's definitely a lot less of a giant mess of cables now that everything is tucked neatly into the rack! Swipe for the in progress shots πŸ˜‚

    And yes, I did 3D print a bracket to mount my ATEM Mini Extreme stand hanging off the front of the rack. We'll see if this holds up, and if so I might make it available to purchase!

    It took me almost an hour to add timestamps to my nearly 4 hour livestream all about the ATEM Mini Pro from yesterday! We covered everything from the ground up including basic switching and transitions, audio, adding custom graphics and more!

    These three little cameras all fit in the palm of my hand, and they are a really unique way to run a multi-camera live production! I just wrapped up a 2-hour live demo of this system testing out every feature of the cameras!

    Thanks to Mevo for sending these out to me to review! There are lots more features coming to the Mevo Multicam app, so stay tuned because I'll be posting more videos as new features are released!

    It's been over 3 years since I've published an update for Overland, my GPS tracker app, and I am a little terrified to re-download XCode and see how much work it's going to take to even make it compile now 😬 https://overland.p3k.app

    That feeling when you're going through a website's registration flow and even though it's custom branded and looks unique there's something oddly familiar about it, then you look up the DNS records for their domain and realize they're pointing to @okta πŸ˜…
