And this is why I am mad that Reddit removed the Gold/Silver upvote. Yes I know that are now doing paid upvotes but this isn't the same. Under the previous system I would have awarded at least a silver if not a gold. This video is extremely awesome.
I am commenting #BringBackDislikes on every unique UA-cam video that I watch for the rest of 2024, regardless of if I actually dislike the video or not. This is video 5014.
@@JoeMemes365 not at all I have been a Brony since 2011 and have been a fan of The Weather Channel since I was a child in the 90s and 2000s. not to mention I'm really into Retro Tech too like that little Trinitron screen this video was shown on peaks all my interest :)
I actually have a brony friend who's big on CRTs. He loves his Trinitron. I don't think he's a TWC lover like us though. :) So yeah, sometimes these niche interests have more overlap than one might think. Either way, I think it's cool.
@@JoeMemes365 i have too many CRTs to count. 2 I use on the daily. My higher end PC uses a Samsung CRT Monitor from 2004. Crisp 1440i image. And in my room I have a Toshiba widescreen CRT TV from 2004 I watch OTA Digital TV on it because it has a built in Digital Receiver and have my Original Xbox and Nintendo Switch hooked up to it. I'm planning to make a home Analog broadcast so I can use the older CRTs I have stored up again :)
@@THEtechknight Very cool! Thanks for taking the time to showcase these machines at the festival. Hope you'll consider coming back to Chicago again this year.
Watching TWC on a CRT brings back memories watching the coverage on Hurricane Katrina.

Credit to the guys at VCF for bringing all the equipment! All I did was point a camera at it and do some extra editing. :)
So nostalgic. Thank you!
can i buy one?
I want to visit Chicago someday so bad!
Nice video!
What’s the song?
It's called "Big Dreamer" by either Kathy Ball or Chris Ball. I've seen both names credited in some places, it's confusing.
How did you do that?
Which part, the audio or the video?
@@JoeMemes365 the video of the intellistar
@@anthonylteer764 I filmed someone's IS1 running live on a TV.
@@JoeMemes365 It sounds like you did have a direct feed from his/her audio.

Yup! She's not mine though, but I'm a fan. Oddest combination of two of my interests yet!

@@JoeMemes365 so I dont think its a weird combo of interest. You'll be surprised how many in our communities are into this stuff

IS1???
Yes.
This is when TWC peaked.
Some TWC fans might disagree there and say it was the 90s ;) But definitely, TWC was still pretty good through the 2000s decade.
@@JoeMemes365 that was our exhibit btw, it was fun. But yes, TWCs golden age was from the 1996 relaunch to 2005.
