      GlitchedGG We do, they aren't that nice. They use people on the dole who don't give a shit and some use day release prisoners or just released. Spent a day at one in London, never went back. Looking after the staff was never a priority (the bathroom was awful and shared with no lock) and the director was always using the money for "holidays" or "networking". The people in the warehouse also didn't give a shit so stuff being shipped to the 3rd world sometimes had bits missing.

      Don't let my comments stop you or anyone. Someone else could start one up but make it actually a nice place to work at. Just a shame the one I went to didn't.

      its like geek heaven place.
      work there full time, well... probably not.
      but volunteering and also building these machines for poor kids, installing Ubuntu and teaching some class for programming - a way to go!!
      amazing stuff :D
      Its just crazy, most of these pcs and laptops are in perfectly good condition and can work for many years to come, and yet there are still people (especially children) that do not have any PC (phones not counted).
      just think of it.
      today you give that poor kid a pc, teach him some python and OS basic, and in future he will become developer and help push the limits of human thinking
      to the next level by developing software that helps the world to be a much better place..
      way to go guys!
      and thanx Linus for this video, i really enjoyed that wayyyy more than another review of some grafix card or motherboard and frankly doesnt really differ from others :D

      Actually, you have to volunteer 24 hours to get a Ubuntu computer that isn't good enough to play any game and you cannot make any deals to get anything more or less. They also limit you to getting 1 computer a year.

    • @jb888888888
      @jb888888888 8 років тому +6

      It depends on what you need to do with your computer. If you "need" to play the latest games, you'll be disappointed. But if you need it to do stuff the average user needs it for, there's no problem. As seen in the video there are higher end computers available for low cost, just not "free." Plus maybe you'll learn something.

    This shop reminds me of a cool little project I was involved in a few years ago, working with a bunch of other volunteers to repair discarded PCs in order to donate them to poor kids and schools from remote villages. After the project got a bit of publicity there were literally dozens of broken down computers coming in every week from companies willing to help us and we even got a large pack of free XP Home licenses from the local Microsoft retailer. Fun times, I wish I still had time to do something like that again.

    Its funny that when you build your super computers with 4 titans, you are not wearing any anti-static gloves, but when you go to a tech shop full of old stuff that dont really have that big of a value you do.
    I have build all the computers without them, but while studying infotechnology, the professor made us pretty clear that handling almost ancient computer hardware in our school without anti-static gloves was unacceptable because of microscopic damage can be sent whilst now wearing them.
    Nice to see this channel has improved in a good way, usually when youtube channels grow the content starts to blur into the darkness, but not here!

    768k 3.5" floppy drive
    MS DOS
    2400 baud modem
    I learned BASIC and got online with compuserve with that thing.

    Oh wow, youtube reccomended this video to me again! I love this place! I volunteer there, well, not currently because of the pandemic but I used to work in dismantle, building and ram testing/drive wiping! It's trippy seeing places where you worked yourself in a youtube video but I actually got a free xbox 360 from some volunteering. It's an amazing place and i knew it a long time ago, even before linus made a video. I was a young teen at the time and i even went there as a small kid. I still go sometimes (not right now because of pandemic but yeah)

      Honestly it depends on your definition of "a few." Different Free Geeks have different policies; some you get one of their standard computers (no fancy cards or high end CPUs) after 24 hours of volunteering; others you get store credit after working 24-75 hours. I believe strongly in the Free Geek idea but some of the decisions at my local Free Geek and others I have issues with.
