Oh, oh, that's terrible Speaking of terrible this sponsor segue is but Corsair isn't Corsair's ML RGV fans feature magnetic levitation bearings and dynamic RGB lighting check out their 120 and 140 millimeter variants at the links below Do you remember the original Game Boy from 1989? Introducing Game Boy, it's portable. It's in stereo and its games are interchangeable Okay, yeah, you probably don't because even people born in the year 2000 are almost voting age now Lordy anyway now noobs and veterans alike can have the original Game Boy experience on the hyperkin Smart Boy a $50 device that marries old-school Game Boy controls and cartridge support with your phone's superior screen and battery life as As long as you have a supported USB type-c phone Game Boy advanced games aren't supported and the software experiences a bit less than streamlined since you actually need two separate apps to get it working the Smart Boy companion app and a third-party emulator But the buttons feel pretty dang authentic and it works on games for both the original brick Game Boy and the Game Boy color It is a little kludgy, but overall I like the way hyperkin has executed this the hardware feels durable and Using a third-party emulator makes the Smart Boy pretty future-proof our next item is a real sleeper hit It's an HDMI to VGA adapter from dyno And I know what you're thinking does such a mundane object deserve such a savage logo Yes, yes, it does. It's super compact compared to competing solutions and doesn't require any power Or any drivers to be installed just plug one end into your HDMI port and your VGA cable into the other and bam digital to analog baby as For why you might need something like this well It's mostly for interoperability between new gadgets like your laptop or latest gen graphics card all of which lack analog outputs and Legacy tech like an old projector in a conference room or lecture hall or basically anything server related Now dyno doesn't do everything you can't reverse it to adapt a VGA device to an HDMI display The conversions just one way and you'll be stuck without audio But there are slightly bulkier solutions that will convert your HDMI sound to a three and a half millimeter jack and I mean on that subject if your new device doesn't even have HDMI Display port and USB type-c adapters to VGA are out there as well The main point was to highlight that things like this exist another thing that some people care about that the dyno lacks is Mounting screws to ensure that it doesn't walk itself out and disconnect over time But I personally think it's more convenient this way since I'm probably gonna be using it in short bursts Rather than as part of a longer term deployment Anyway next up well Let's say you've connected all your smart lights so you can control everything from your phone making your life much easier Until no no wait stop your bloody family and friends keep touching the light switches ruining your setup Don't reach for the duct tape just yet the Magnet hatch light switch covers are a more elegant way to keep people's greasy little digits off your switches These were originally designed to help people who observe the Sabbath a time at which they're not supposed to do any work Including switching lights on and off But they're also great for preventing people from turning off the outlet beside your bed that you use to charge your phone overnight So you don't sleep in and miss work? But if you're thinking that you can use these to child proof your switches think again on that one part of the beauty of them Is that they attach magnetically to the ferris screws holding your light switch plate on so they go on and come off with? No work at all Next up we have 12 acoustic studio foam wedges now first things first these are not for soundproofing So don't buy them to keep your neighbor's dog from waking you up at night Why why why you gotta do this? I mean okay by definition pretty much anything with mass will offer some soundproofing But the main purpose of these is to treat a room for recording and playback quality by removing reflective sounds and echoes at a foot square and only a maximum of an inch deep these work best on higher frequencies and Probably won't be enough to absorb lows like a proper bass trap would but they're really cheap and and Not just functional they also give your space a professional studio feel and you can attach them to the wall without damaging anything by using Adhesive spray like this or strips like the ones that come with our last item command brand cord bundlers These things are seriously shockingly useful You just stick the hooks to the wall using the included 3m strips And now you've got a versatile hanger for cable management storage and drying out your sandals after a trip to the beach And who says you have to stick it to the wall you can tack it right onto an object to maximize your stow-and-go ability But just because these puppies can hold up to seven and a half pounds doesn't mean they're gonna wreck the paint when you take Them off as long as you do it Properly so we just painted a lot of walls around here That's why we got these ones and I guess actually that leads us perfectly into the Disclosure part of these handy tech videos where we tell you where all this stuff came from it's pretty easy this time We bought almost all of it from Amazon except the smart boy which was sent to us by hyperkin Those guys were probably hoping for a dedicated video Sorry guys y'all done got bundled Blue apron allows you to create delicious chef inspired recipes at home They deliver all the farm fresh ingredients you need right to your doorstep in exactly the right proportions No trips to the grocery store and no waste They've got two different types of plans the two-person plan and the family plan And this is really cool the recipes are delivered in a refrigerated box So the ingredients stay fresh even if you're not at home when your package arrives They're always adding new dishes to the menu and they ship to most of the USA There's no commitment you can skip or cancel the service at any time and the first hundred people to sign up at the link below Will get three meals off their order so go check it out Why go out when you can learn how to cook have some fun and have a delicious healthy meal?
