A Conversation About Old Workstations and Video Editing

I just got a text from you over the computer system yeah sorry so who are you oh i legitimately just looked you up in the yellow pages i'm just looking for a workstation i thought people who work on video editing might have old workstations uh we have workstations but we uh we need them all why would he call me back the yellow pages is worthless it deserves to be dead how can this many places be closed what if i wore a shirt that said i want to buy a gaming pc and then people would walk up to me want to buy i mean it's not the worst thing i've ever done it's a pretty low bar though oh you can't even read it it's like way over under the arm i'm not gonna tape it onto my back i already look like enough of an idiot okay so we've only got like an hour and a half left so we're gonna check out the local community center uh to see if we can get a list of events around here that maybe would attract nerds in the next couple of days and then we're gonna go to crazy bobs uh because apparently according to willow video they have stuff sometimes oh getting stuff in and out of the back seat is um gonna be a bit of a hassle now oops oh because you taped your door closed yeah so back when i used to paint houses uh this was how i used to drive with my hands at nine and three on the steering wheel because that's what they taught me in driving school this is the worst i want the internet back i think this is like really old because there's an overpass in front of us that straight up is not on our map call check out the overpass take this away from you now i need that no you don't i need that how am i supposed to know where i'm going you can't operate a camera and defend this map at the same time i think we are about to have a no internet experience here because i don't know where exactly crazy bob's is i don't immediately see it and i think i'm going to have to ask for directions this seems like a really long shot so while i do really appreciate them trying to help a brother out i i do not have a lot of confidence that this is gonna yield anything you can just wait here i i don't think this is a thing i feel like an idiot in this shirt i'm taking it off wow they have like everything here you know like army of darkness paraphernalia you know like that kind of store well there's a community donation center here there's a thrift store and there's a value village this is the editor viewer dual eight i think this is a film viewer here's another thrift store electronics section oh it's a dual shock too six bucks i'm buying it this is for me personally though this has nothing to do with scrap yard worse whoa what is this oh oh it's just a heat sink i thought this was a cpu that would have been unbelievable so i'm feeling pretty good i got myself a playstation 2 controller and a lead on an lga 2011 box heatsink so i was gonna just leave this here tonight but i need to get my badminton stuff out of my trunk yes i should have just done it on poster board ed thank you thank you captain hindsight i was saying that while you're doing it it's all hindsight now a big thing that i learned today is that the entire market for used computer stuff has moved online it's a high-tech category so it makes total sense that the people selling and the people buying would take the whole thing online dbrand is your source for awesome vinyl skins and now you can finally skin your nintendo switch your switch accessories and your switch controllers including the pro controller they use high quality authentic true textured 3m vinyl on every product they feature unrivaled precision so no matter what color you like your joy cons to be me personally i'm partial to the pink and purple combination they are going to look absolutely fantastic like a factory finish and their customer service robots are easy to work with and wonderful their products are affordable and they ship worldwide so check them out today at the link below your switch could look like this or like this or like this or this look they have so many colors here let's see if i can juggle d brand new brand joycons yes i can shut up whatever it's d brands joy cones oh news flash for dbrand you guys are like super not getting these pro controllers back these look awesome time on scrapyard wars i don't want them to lose money either like i'm not in the business of just screwing people over i i don't want to be like i don't want to be rude or anything but like that's not worth anywhere near the sticker like not even close a fraction of it

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enokay i don't know the rules this time me neither i'm always the one who announces the rules but i don't know what they are colton colton no internet dude no internet no internet okay how are we supposed to build a computer with no internet they've got two thousand dollars to build the best bang for the buck pc but they have to do it without internet they've got three days to do it and on the fourth day we find out who the winner is in this edition of scrapyard wars brought to you by dbrand okay so the one way that you can benefit from the internet is if you ask someone a question and without any prompting they use the internet to find the answer for you i'm at a complete loss right now because i know a lot of people will look at the at the amount of money i'm holding and they'll go well that's easy but what's not easy is bang for the buck i can't spend it all i have to shop as though i have as close to zero of it as possible if we need a paper map it's us up to us to go get one which is actually slightly problematic because i don't know where the heck you buy one i think i'm just gonna get in the car and start driving basically the only places that i know how to get to are bcit quantlin technically but i don't know if they have computer courses there and best buy because other than that i pretty much use gps to get everywhere and i can't now not even the not on the internet gps in my car thanks thanks rules i rarely think of like using google maps as using the internet but i can't use google maps so i can't i don't know how to find anything good luck you too for real though yeah i genuinely hope you do quite well because one of us needs something thanks d brand nice guys nice guys d brand this is your idea well i didn't think it would be like this it didn't occur to me that i couldn't use email i actually kind of wonder how necessary the map is because i'm not going to be able to find anywhere that i don't already know okay so the girl in there was really helpful they don't carry street maps anymore but she did have this handy-dandy printed map of the local area which i guess is better than nothing like i really appreciate the help but i do have to wonder what the purpose of this is they've got their location circled and highlighted but who who are they giving this to they're they're already here thought process right now is i've found a few terrible ideas at best buy but the guys there were really helpful and they did what they could um and we have some options okay so potential idea the it's a little low spec but it's really cheap uh because i think it's been like in an oh it was an open box return from like a long time ago that's just been sitting in the back uh 300 watt power supply a10 7800 eight gigabytes of ddr3 the powerslide would need to be cranked up because i'd need to put a graphics card in there it's really cheap we're gonna try a little bit more sneaker networking i'm gonna go to bcit my old university and brandon's old university i'm really hoping i can find someone carrying like a gaming laptop or something like that that is a big goal approaching random people has been difficult for me mainly because i don't want to be a burden on people or annoy them i'm certain that won't bother linus at all okay so i got this street map of the entire fraser valley for six dollars crap uh excuse me this might be a bit of a long shot i see you're cleaning up though do you happen to have a phone book yeah no phone book okay that was worth a shot what about an old computer are you selling any computer stuff okay it was worth a shot thank you stuff that is the most desperate feeling thing i think i've ever done there is a very distinct possibility that i am going to end up having to go to a computer store and buy a computer what is geeks rs let's find out what geeks rs is here there's no parking way to go geeks r us more like losers with no parking spaces on us hi hey how's it going uh good uh what kind of a store is this exactly i was just driving by computer repairs computer repairs um do you guys deal in used hardware at all like selling it or just having it well i mean both i guess what do you need um like second gen core i7 third gen give me a second sure when i get more desperate i might get to the point of just going to computer stores and asking people there but that's like pretty rude to make a deal with me under the table on some stuff that they own on the side like that's the kind of thing that they would keep on the on the dl on the cl you know even if it's like something you have personally i'll deal under the counter anything i'm desperate okay so what would be what would be fair pricing for these i'll leave that up to you oh yeah it's up to you guys honestly i would give it to you if you i would take it for free i can't take it from you i mean the i5 6400 you wouldn't give that away you can't get award for it it's useless to us so here's the situation um these guys have some older used stuff but they don't have pricing for anything because this is all in the like put it in a bin and take it to free geek once a quarter pile so i think what we're probably gonna have to do is keep exploring but this was a solid lead unfortunately the best graphics card they've got that's not a quadro is a 7770 and i think that might be a little bit underpowered for our purposes okay thank you very much this has been very helpful um we'll just put it in the bin okay literally we have a wall of bins wall of beds they just can i see the wall of bins i mean you know we've got all our different memories and okay you know this is where you keep your memories our memories i've been for my memories too just because you know you've got everything server parts okay do you mind do you mind if i just kind of poke around in here a little bit excuse me have a really random question so i noticed you were working on a laptop that wasn't a mac i just wanted to ask if you or anyone you know are trying to sell any computer parts okay thank you very much uh i'm working on a project right now which is like a competition where i have to build a computer sure i'm not allowed to use the internet to find any of the parts and i can't buy them from traditional brick-and-mortar stores i have the case and if i still have the case but i do have the ram just had to find it i never needed to go to the it desk we talked to the first guy behind the i.t desk who yeah has some stuff at home that he's looking to get rid of which is hilarious he had some ram and a case which is unfortunately like in the lowest section of things that i need right now but i have his number he's going to contact me when he figures out what that stuff is and maybe maybe he'll know someone else who has some more things as well apparently i bcit as a whole just finished their finals last week and is currently in like marking time or whatever so it's basically just teachers here so plan a right now is to go to a bunch of different repair shops cell phone repair shops laptop repair shops stuff like that and try to see if they might know anyone or they themselves outside of that work have some computer components that i can buy scrapyard wars is brought to you by dbrand their new nintendo switch skins are available now and you can also order along with like oh look how adorable these are they're cute you can also order tempered glass screen protectors these little kits come with everything you need they look great and they're durable including fantastic scratch resistance you can learn more at the link in the video description okay so here's a 1366 xeon now the problem is that uh it's an e5607 whatever that is no internet i don't know i've been conditioned by the much higher quality of information on the internet to not bother to ask people in stores their opinions what if i showed up with an apu as long as i could run fortnite at 1080p that could be an excellent value so they've got an a10 5800 series not sure exactly what chip it is here's some ddr3 though that's potentially interesting so this is a four gig two by two kit and it looks like they've got a couple of them okay well you know what this has been very helpful gentlemen and um we may return i'm assuming a motherboard in this bin is dead okay no the motherboard seemed like it's worth a shot the workstations aren't dead the xeons in here aren't dead but they're going to salvage they're going to salvage are they okay thank you very much gentlemen possible that i'll return my options are somewhat limited how did people get the word out about things before the internet signs let's go decorate my car selling really such a long message selling your i can't do like block letters i wasn't paying attention in that class in grade four you know what is this shut up i have literally never done this before this is just based on watching other people do it tell you i'm not sure if you're purposely trying to no i'm not want to buy right yeah my plan for the next few days is to try to come up with a better plan than this now i don't think it's enough to have this on the inside it's kind of hard to read through the dick butt so i'm going to put it on the outside of the car yeah it should be fine where are you taping it onto i'm going to tape it onto the back window was there any doubt that i was going to go full ed that's not even a good job of wrapping it just shut up i'm working on it okay that's fine got this okay this might have been no advised that's not going anywhere let's go find a phone book this seems like a total long shot but do you guys have a phone book i know right got a bit of a long shot question do you have a phone book uh i'm your neighbor from about six doors down long shot question do you guys have a phone book hey uh long shot question do you guys have a phone book it is amazing how hard it is to find a phone book i was laughed at literally laughed at do we get a shout out in a video if we do do you have one no you can't say yes until we don't that's the the art of negotiation would not say that we say what we have before we declare what we have you guys are savages oh my word oh okay ed our our good neighbors cover star thank you very much i can bring it back in four days yes we have a phone book oh i mean this feels like a total shot in the dark but video production services if i can find an old workstation holy crap there's a listing for industrial vibrators you've just dialed a number that isn't in use oh for two would not be a good start here i don't think that's alpha video productions anymore hi uh this is a bit of a random question but do you guys have any old workstations that you're looking to get rid of like for money i would pay for them uh what do you mean exactly um like you guys do video work right no we don't oh never mind thank you you're under video production services in the uh yellow pages so i feel weird for cinematography wow yeah okay that makes sense thank you okay bye okay here's a post house they will have powerful workstations for sure the customer you are calling is unavailable at the moment please try again later i mean do this many businesses just disappear is unavailable at the moment please try again later hi um this is a bit of a long shot question but do you guys have any like pc gaming stuff systems we don't unfortunately do you know anyone like even if it's not willow video who who has some gaming hardware that they might want to get rid of um your best bet is honestly craigslist and online like ebay amazon uh you could try crazy bob in downtown langley he signs up has run stuff including pc stuff oh okay i'll give that a shot thank you okay crazy bob downtown langley okay let's try some pawn shops i've never had luck with these before though but the thing about pawn shops hi i was wondering if you guys have any computers or computer hardware we have laptops laptops say do you have anything like gaming grade yeah we have an alien right now really ital i7 quad core with 16 gig memory right multiple drives that's windows home 7 premium okay uh and what what are you guys asking for that one 12 49. okay that's that's pretty rough okay okay all right that might be outside of my budget thank you very much okay right good luck hello hi i just got a text from you over the computer system yeah sorry so who are you oh i legitimately just looked you up in the yellow pages i'm just looking for a workstation i thought people who work on video editing might have old workstations uh we have workstations but we uh we need them all why would he call me back the yellow pages is worthless it deserves to be dead how can this many places be closed what if i wore a shirt that said i want to buy a gaming pc and then people would walk up to me want to buy i mean it's not the worst thing i've ever done it's a pretty low bar though oh you can't even read it it's like way over under the arm i'm not gonna tape it onto my back i already look like enough of an idiot okay so we've only got like an hour and a half left so we're gonna check out the local community center uh to see if we can get a list of events around here that maybe would attract nerds in the next couple of days and then we're gonna go to crazy bobs uh because apparently according to willow video they have stuff sometimes oh getting stuff in and out of the back seat is um gonna be a bit of a hassle now oops oh because you taped your door closed yeah so back when i used to paint houses uh this was how i used to drive with my hands at nine and three on the steering wheel because that's what they taught me in driving school this is the worst i want the internet back i think this is like really old because there's an overpass in front of us that straight up is not on our map call check out the overpass take this away from you now i need that no you don't i need that how am i supposed to know where i'm going you can't operate a camera and defend this map at the same time i think we are about to have a no internet experience here because i don't know where exactly crazy bob's is i don't immediately see it and i think i'm going to have to ask for directions this seems like a really long shot so while i do really appreciate them trying to help a brother out i i do not have a lot of confidence that this is gonna yield anything you can just wait here i i don't think this is a thing i feel like an idiot in this shirt i'm taking it off wow they have like everything here you know like army of darkness paraphernalia you know like that kind of store well there's a community donation center here there's a thrift store and there's a value village this is the editor viewer dual eight i think this is a film viewer here's another thrift store electronics section oh it's a dual shock too six bucks i'm buying it this is for me personally though this has nothing to do with scrap yard worse whoa what is this oh oh it's just a heat sink i thought this was a cpu that would have been unbelievable so i'm feeling pretty good i got myself a playstation 2 controller and a lead on an lga 2011 box heatsink so i was gonna just leave this here tonight but i need to get my badminton stuff out of my trunk yes i should have just done it on poster board ed thank you thank you captain hindsight i was saying that while you're doing it it's all hindsight now a big thing that i learned today is that the entire market for used computer stuff has moved online it's a high-tech category so it makes total sense that the people selling and the people buying would take the whole thing online dbrand is your source for awesome vinyl skins and now
