Hello my patrons! On the next main channel video we have a treasure hunting episode. I have a few boxes of random computer parts that have been collecting dust in my living room, so it's time to dig into them to see what awesome goodies lie within.

This box doesn't disappoint, as it has some interesting and obscure parts that I'll need help identifying. Take a look and perhaps I can get some insight that could lead to some interesting follow-up videos.

In the "human malware" front, I'm no longer testing positive but I am still left with come congestion and a cough. People tell me it may take months for me to entirely kick it, but at least the symptoms are pretty mild at this point.

Thanks for all the support!
