    4:23, well technically it is a screensaver:
    Screensavers were originally designed to prevent burn in on crt displays, caused by images being displayed in the same place for too long. A magnet twisting the image like that would certainly save your screen... from burn in.

    • @energeticyellow1637

      @Robin Assels No, the idea was a screensaver would be a constantly changing image or pattern, like the pattern on the TV as he moved the magnet, that would prevent burn in from, say, stationarity text from an old DOS prompt.

    The magnet and the CRT is probably the most realistic physical/visual demonstration of the earths magnetic field I’ve ever seen.
    When you had it on the glass and it was displaying that “dead-zone” surrounded by the ‘infinity’ pattern? You were effectively displaying exactly what the earths field does, but with man-made electrons instead of solar wind electrons. I thought that was pretty cool 👍

    With the computer, its easy to see what happened. It's an old COMPAQ, and so it has an HDD. An HDD stores data on magnetic tape platters. Passing a ludicrously strong magnet over it destroyed the magnetic tape, and thus any data that was on it. If you had been using a modern solid state drive, it probably would have been fine, other than some temporary disruption (like the CMOS errors you were getting with that computer that went away after you removed the magnet).

    if anyone wants to know why the magnet killed the comopputer then heres the reason:
    computers (especially older ones) save data on an HDD (commonly referred to as a hard drive) which use magnetic fields to store data. once the magnet was placed on the computer, the hdd began losing its memory, however, the computer could still run vital programs on RAM which uses electric charges to store data and so the magnet did not instantly wipe it. eventually, the electronics could not function properly due to the magnets influence on the current and so the mouses signals were not able to be received by the computer. eventually, after a vital program was attempted to be run, the computer realised it could not be found and with nothing else to do it gave a warning and shut down. unfortunately, the warning algorithm was stored inside the hdd (which had been wiped by the magnet) resulting in yet another failure to function, so the computer shut down completely - this is where it lost all hope... since the hdd was wiped out, there was no system to reboot on and because the computer shut down the RAM was wiped leaving no system left to even attempt continue running. the loading sequence is stored in the ROM fortunately, so the computer could load back up (since like the RAM, ROM is not affected by magnetic infkuence of this calibre), however, with no system to load up there was nothing else it could do other than complain. luckily, as long as the magnets still work in the hdd, after formatting it, you should be able to save an operating system onto it again and the computer should work fine (granted that the magnet wasnt moved around on the computer too much to generate a current and break the motherboard).
    so yeah, this is what happened to the computer and why it happened :)

      The computer behavior is also consistent with sudden hard drive death. It's able to perform actions up until he tries to open the folder. Its likely the operations up till that point were cached in RAM, but clicking on the folder caused an interrupt in the CPU to call the disk for the necessary information. Everything starts going downhill right there.

      This magnet is powerful enough to shatter the bones in my fingers if caught between the magnet and a thick piece of iron or another large magnet. With this computer the metal case is probably not thick enough so I could get away with only some very painful pinches and some loss of skin at direct contact. But with a magnet this size you don't take chances - 4 cm distance is more than crazy enough. Highly not recommended trying this at your own house :)

      Hi Alan!
      Thanks for stopping by and yet again thanks for letting me use your awesome music!
      I think it added a beautiful touch to the TV-part. And a good thing I didn't use your music on a video you would hate ;)

      Newer, flat screen tvs are not affected with magnets. The tv here is a crt screen, and the thicker kind. it was cool to see how the magnet pushed the display out of the tv

    • @dregothic
      @dregothic 6 років тому +4

      Pikachuk That is because hard drives write data magnetically to platters in blocks. The arm has very tiny heads and the neyodium magnets in hard drives are used to stableize the arms as they write to the disk spinning 7200 rpm (oreven faster in some server disks). They move very fast.
      This magnet probably corrupted the blocks on the hard drives platters and possibly damaged the arm. I have pulled apart tons of bad hard drives to salvage the magnets to use on fridges and such.
      The same principle applies to floppy disks which is why you never kept them around magnets.

      bass boosted music 2017 This might also damage the platters beyond use but modern day hard drives still use the same basic technology, platters with magnetic data on the.
      Solid state drives use flash. However solid state is still more expensive and still not up to the same densities, 10TB HDD is available.

    When I was a kid, my friend's dad let us play Mechwarrior on his home PC. One day, we found that if you pressed a magnet up to the monitor's screen, the colors went all crazy!

    More than the computer in itself, I believe the neodymium magnet pretty much erased all the structure of the Hard Disk to complete flatness. The PC would PROBABLY recover after a transplant of Hard Disk. If you can still find a HD for that kind of hardware, that is.

      I have a bunch of 4GB ones lying around, sone have Win98 on them one even has Win95 and an official Office97 on it. (still got the disk for it too)

    • @Pdor_figlio_di_Kmer
      @Pdor_figlio_di_Kmer 8 років тому

      Well, I too have some old IDE laying around in the attic... half a dozen of them, I think, capacity from 3.2 to 80GB and form factor of both 2.5 and 3.5 inches (functionality NOT guaranteed)... but who knows if he has or can get one where he lives to do the swap and try to see if the PC works afterwards.
