I’m pretty sure the iMac just has a bad hard drive. I had the same symptoms with mine when the drive was dying. A reinstall helps, but it get progressively worse until it doesn’t work. I think it’s due to file corruption.
Yeah the reason for him not saying it is the stupidest thing ever. He decided not to for the sake of "inclusion". As if "Hey guys" isn't inclusive to females either. Really stupid, but it is what it is.
The Sprint locked phone, can be used on T-Mobile since they bought Sprint. Our old work phones were Sprint, and one day they updated and had a T-Mobile boot screen.
@@corvidconfidential8826 I think it's more to do with the band of the cell phone signal. Some of the bands used in other countries won't work over here even if they are unlocked. That's my understanding of it, and I could be wrong.
The HTC one M7 was my first smartphone! I still have it somewhere even though I loved that thing to death. The speakers were amazing! I remember how much the phone seemed so different to everything else at the time and it was very pretty too! Always will be one of the best phones ever made!
6:34 You can 100% game on that laptop. You want to probably downgrade to windows xp though as Vista was really annoying with its overtuned UAC settings. Baldurs Gate, Arcanum, Fallout 1 and 2, Diablo, Starcraft, Warcraft 2. I did restored multiple laptops like that. Usually dig up old drivers, place ssd instead of old hdd and voila.
@@Satanclause2060 Basically windows 10 won't play nicely with laptop this old. (There is not enough RAM and this is probably DDR 2 ram which is quite slow.) To play most of old games on laptop like that you don't need internet and its best to have OS installed that was used the most during prime time of laptop you choose to restore. Vista was usually an overkill on those intel core duo machines, and it was first time Microsoft tried to implement 64bit architecture to the world. For old gaming on oldy machine like that you want 32bit windows xp. In order to have good experience you also will need some old display. CRT would be ideal but if you can't get one thats not totally burned out or super expensive then get old 4:3 ratio square monitor. Eizo FlexScan S2133 or something along the lines.
Sprint is still kinda around. When I call T Mobile, they still have me in a separate system and everything seems to require making Sprint's old back end communicate with T Mobile's. So I'm pretty sure you could technically get that phone connected...
The PSP still has life in it. USB to barrel jack and it will charge on an “old” iPhone charger, and all Firmware’s for it has been broken, so use that IR blaster for some good use. I made a video on it for the two 1st gens I have, and we use it to run our speakers and TV’s. And AC🤣😅😂
Austin, I was born in 1978...watching u unwrap the Drake and Josh game is about like me buying a SEGA CD system in 2015...it was incredible when I bought it for the 1st time, but not so much as an adult. Have u featured the SEGA CD on the show? \
Anyone who's been a fan of Austin evans since he started his channel can confirm as the years go by, he's looking more and more like a Dr suess character
The only thing I wish is when you put funny comments on the videos that you would leave them up just a little bit longer. Sometimes they're really hard to read when they go by that fast. Love the videos! Keep up the awesome work!
I tried to ignore problems in life and they didn't go away... In fact they got worse and now I'm partially paralyzed on one side because I ignored the pains.
The HTC one was one of my favorite phones. I got it used from my grandfather when i was like 13. Looked nice, good audio, good size, and surprisingly durable. Only problem is the camera had black balance issues that made everything turn purple. That was the golden age of Android phones.
at 2 minute, its easy you get recognition and to proove you are a honnest seller, most people only buy from sellers that have a 100% good review to know they wont be ripped off
So... I still have a Nintendo DS Lite... and my kids have a 3DS, but they didn't know about "Download Play" until I loaded up Mario Kart and invited them to play, despite only owning 1 copy of the game. The DS lite in my opinion is still great, it can still play all DS games from it's period and all Gameboy Advance games, a feature that was removed with the 2DS and 3DS. Of course the gameboy Advanced SP has the ability to play literally every gameboy game ever made, but that is a different story. *edit, fun story, the DS Lite came out the same time as USB Car adapters. And while a USB Car adapter ran about $20 at the time, the DS travel case, which held a DS Lite, 2 DS games, 2 GBA games, also included a spare stylus, retractable USB charging cable, AND a car USB charging adapter for $20. I still have it, and it still works too.
The Inspiron 1720!! The 1520 was my first laptop (same design and color as what was shown in the video, but 15 inch model so it was 10 keyless). It’s from the early Vista days, so we specifically ordered it from Dell with XP on it. It was a great for the time and I still love pulling it out
It was a pleasure to see one of my favorite phone models make an appearance in this video. I, too, like the HTC One line of phones. I had an HTC One and later an HTC One M8. I had the M8 for years and only recently updated to a Samsung Galaxy A12. Both of my HTC Ones still work, although the M8 runs very slowly and has a horrible battery life. The Boom Sound feature on the M8 was really good; it sounds better than modern smartphones.
I should appreciate Austin and his team more as content creators, but then again, I should be honest with myself. I just enjoy them buying the rip-off bad tech from Ebay or Wish.
7:01 I used that style of laptop through college. Nice desktop replacement but definitely not something to take with you to class. Loved the media controls on the front to play music while doing assignments all night.
im really surprised that htc one's camera wasnt purple.. everyone i knew including myself with that phone got the purple camera issue. rest of the phone was amazing i remember
"HTC One m8", is one of my favourite phone too. My first & last HTC phone. Best the sounding speaker setup at the time & also the best stock earphones. That "Ultra Pixel" camera is rock, it's a shame that HTC discontinued that technology. Also, love the dot view case, It's a technology that is ahead of its time. M8 is a device from the future. Love it so much.
I remember i had an cool ass case on the htc one that was an folding case and i could put an moving sign on the front of the case when i closed it so i loved it
Omg, with the dots?! I had that too and I forgot all about it until I read this comment. It was freaking awesome and the case had a good rubberized feel to it.
Bruh if you think that's the only system running Vista, try working at the micro center service center for a day. You'll see some people who just aren't ready for windows 10 so they really need to keep their windows xp laptop running
Had a Dell laptop like that. Still have it for the occasional writing. It had the same wifi/ethernet issue. I loved the design though, and didn't want to give it up, so I learned how to install Linux Mint. Funny thing is, all its problems went away after that. Ethernet picked up again as did the wifi.
When I used to sell phones and stuff on ebay I used to literally sterilise all the equipment with Isopropal Alcahol and UVC. I became a top rated seller as apparently this was surprisingly rare amongst refurbished device sellers. People would keep saying how amazingly clean my stuff was in basically every single review. Why did I stop selling on Ebay? I had customers constantly trying to scam me or fraudulently return items. Ebay constantly kept taking their side and even once tried to force me to accept a return after the 10 day return window elapsed that they imposed on me. That forced return was the final straw which caused me to leave. They tried telling me I absolutely must accept it under all circumstances, and kept reiterating that, until I reminded the that it is actually against Australian law to try to force that upon me as it wasn't covered by their contract (10 day windows had expired) and that made the laptop unsolicited mail and thus I wasn't required to pay for it. Hilariously EBay had already paid him for it, and the return was fraudulent as he claimed it was faulty yet the "faults" were non-existent. Ebay legally had to absorb that loss while I got the payment for the device and the device itself. They never attempted to recover it so I could literally sell it again lol.
Considering the fact that people were playing games on NES and C-64, which had KB of memory, something with 2GB RAM could certainly run some games. You only need the knowledge to find them and install them ;)
I love that HTC PHONE it was one of my Dream phones to own it looks nice and fun to use I used one at best buy and it was beautiful. Still a nostalgic phone to this day
If this was recorded near the 4th of July it was likely they were trying to sell fireworks but disguise them as a console to hopefully get by Ebays rules
They probably sell games for 0.99$ with the thought that if someone buys 5-10 of those games at once it adds up to a good amount, which probably happens more often than not.

So true!!! I had one back in the day and I loved it!
his was a m7 not m8 i believe
The HTC m series was so damn good I'd adore if they remade it with modern specs
Also so durable!
I accidentally left mine outside in the rain for a week with no damage and keep in mind it was a rainy week
Had the HTC One M8 Windows Edition and I don't think those speakers have ever been equaled. RIP M Series and RIP Windows Phone
