If you’ve ever subjected yourself to one of my Patreon update videos you’ll be aware that I can wander off on tangents (and tangents of tangents).

This can be an issue for a regular YouTube video where the majority of the audience expects a simple premise summed up by a descriptive title.

An example of a good clear title would be “I review the new iPhone 28 - is it marginally better than the almost identical iPhone 27se+2a ?”

I'd imagine that a YouTube audience would be annoyed if at some point during that video I’d moved on from reviewing a smartphone to talking about my favourite kind of instant noodles.

I only mention this because while this latest video starts off talking about a dongle, exploring that subject caused me to wander off into satisfying a tangentially related curiosity about headphone outputs.

I do feel the wander was worthwhile, the only issue now is that the video can’t be summed up neatly in a snappy YouTube title or thumbnail. So I haven't attempted it.

With all that said - here’s my latest video about some loosely associated things.

Oh and thanks again to Duncan for the inspiration.

Have a good remainder-of-the-weekend and if you’re somewhere where you get Monday off - enjoy the mini break.

UPDATE: The usual re-edit to tidy up and correct a few things. The updated version is the one now embedded and linked to above. I’ve deleted the old one.

The 50 year old headphone dongle - Sanyo Stereocast

If you think headphone dongles are just a new irritation - think again. But at least Sanyo's Stereocast added something new to the 1973 portable music listening experience.

A) Patrons https://www.patreon.com/techmoan usually have early access to videos. I'll show the first version of a video on Patreon and often the feedback I get results in a video going through further revisions to improve it. e.g. Fix audio issues, clarify points, add extra footage or cut extraneous things out. The video that goes live on youtube is the final version. If you want to see the videos early and before any adverts are added, you can sign up to Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/techmoan
