The Beauty of Background Noise and Screen Quality: A Personal Experience with the New Monitor

As I settled into my new corner workspace, surrounded by the trappings of a productivity-enhanced home office, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and relief. The arrival of my 4k monitor had finally happened, and it was love at first sight. Standing in front of this sleek and shiny screen, I marveled at its crisp clarity and vibrant colors. The text on the screen seemed almost too good to be true – like looking at something on a retina display without actually owning one.

I spent some time browsing through the menu, checking out the various features and settings that came with my new monitor. Everything felt so intuitive and easy to use, making me wonder how I ever managed without it for so long. As I explored the different options, I couldn't help but think about how this new setup was going to change my workflow and productivity. With two monitors now available to me, I envisioned myself juggling multiple screens at once, effortlessly switching between tasks and apps with ease.

Of course, no home office is complete without a bit of background noise – for me, that means watching movies or TV shows while working. As I settled into my new workspace, I found myself drawn to the menu on my monitor, scrolling through the various options available to me. I spotted a movie playing in the corner of the screen, and my curiosity got the better of me. The title "Everest" caught my eye, and I couldn't resist giving it a quick look.

Just as I was about to check out the menu further, I heard a commotion from behind me. My cat, Maui, had somehow managed to wrap himself around my leg, as if he too were excited about the new setup. I chuckled to myself, shaking my head in amazement at how quickly my feline friend had adapted to this change in scenery.

As I continued to explore my new monitor, I couldn't help but think about all the ways it was going to improve my life. With its stunning screen quality and intuitive interface, I knew that I would be spending hours working on projects and watching movies, lost in the beauty of the 4k display. And as I settled back into my chair, ready to dive into some work or maybe a movie, I couldn't help but feel grateful for this little corner of my home office – where technology and creativity came together in perfect harmony.

A Productive Day: Setting Up My New Home Office

With my new monitor finally up and running, I felt like I was on top of the world. The rest of my day was spent setting up my workspace to perfection – a task that had become almost therapeutic with my new monitor's help. As I worked through the various tasks, from arranging my books on the shelf to experimenting with different console placements, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation.

I decided to go for a vertical placement option with both my PS4 and Xbox One, knowing that it would add a touch of modernity to my space. And as I carefully positioned each console in its new home, I couldn't help but think about how this setup was going to change the way I worked and played. The possibilities were endless – from streaming movies on my PS4 to playing games with my Xbox One.

Of course, no discussion of setting up a home office would be complete without mentioning the importance of a little bit of organizational flair. And so, I made sure to include a few decorative touches throughout my space, like a little shelf to display some favorite books or mementos. It was a small touch, but one that added a lot to the overall aesthetic and feel of my new workspace.

As I stood back to admire my handiwork, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. This wasn't just a home office – it was a sanctuary, a place where creativity and productivity came together in perfect harmony. And with my new monitor at the heart of it all, I knew that this space was going to be my go-to destination for hours on end.

A Message from My Heart: Gratitude and Appreciation

As I settled back into my chair, ready to wrap up this little vlog experience, I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude and appreciation. To anyone who's taken the time to watch me ramble on about my new monitor – thank you. Thank you for your support, your encouragement, and your patience.

I know that I can be a bit of a goofball sometimes, throwing around terms like "retina display" without fully understanding what they mean. But at the end of the day, it's not about the tech specs – it's about the joy and excitement of discovering something new and wonderful. And so, to all of you out there who've been with me on this journey, thank you for being part of my story.

I hope that next weekend will bring more excitement and adventure, perhaps even some snow to play in (although I wouldn't hold my breath – after all, it's still early days!). But for now, I'm just going to bask in the glow of this new monitor, feeling grateful for all the ways it's going to improve my life.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enlet one of my favorite weekends in a while begin with some coffee oh hello there it is I David defr franco.com welcome to another what we like to call around these parts is the week uh how you say vlogy Vlog I said the exact same thing last weekend David think of something new anyway guys welcome to an awesome weekend this is going to be just a great weekend for me because one we have a huge snowstorm on its way we're expecting between 12 and 18 in of snow and the second thing I'm most excited about well actually this is number one maybe number two I don't know cuz I really really do like snow my first 4k monitor is here come on let's go check it out it is patiently waiting in my office I'm shocked now he hasn't been in his box yet at least as far as I can tell anyway guys there it is the LG 31 mu 997 yes a 31in 4K display will be replacing my triple Asus pb278q 27 in quiet HD displays that's a mouthful yes it's a very very bold move replacing these three with a single monitor but keep in mind two of these displays will be going over here for my gaming setup and the third one into my bedroom ignore the mess I'm working on that today right around here for my third generation Apple TV I know I'm saying that a lot in my recent Vlogs but not everyone watches all my Vlogs so I'm just trying to make it obvious good day Maui so yes I will unbox that later today first I have to preview the patrons only Vlog and join my coffee you know priorities but I will unbox that in about 2 hours but first guys let's mix things up for a bit I promised someone a while ago that I will do an unboxing of their product called new hobbybox dcom so basically what this is is it's a monthly box but it's different than your typical month monthly box oh now he's in the Box speaking of boxes yay it's official he's in so this is not your typical monthly box this is a monthly box that encourages you to try out a new hobby past boxes have included building a new cell phone charger battery pack that's just awesome candle making magic lock picking yo I need to get in on that that's so awesome building a foxhole radio survival but anyway guys if you guys are interested in signing for new hobbybox outcom use the code David to save $3 not $1 not $2 but $3 so again this is new hobbybox decom and and they were nice enough to ship me one I'm going to unbox this rather quickly I'm not going to take up too much of your time but I did promise them that I would unbox this in the weekend Vlog because we've been talking about this since before Christmas really Maui all right here we go they do a good job of taping this I got to say okay so you do get a card for instructions on this month's box go to how to.ne hobbybox outcom and I believe they mentioned to me in the email that this has to do with knitting like a nerdy culture uh icon like a character not totally sure oh wait hold on no this one is different I'm not sure what kit this is this might be the battery charger huh very interesting so we have all these parts is this like a soldering tool if so that's really cool I've never had the solder anything yes I know that's shocking but guys you know what that's what this box is all about it's about trying new things and the fact that Mai is distracting the background okay so yeah this is a cell phone battery charger I'm pretty sure because I got my dad a similar kit where you can use like an Altoids uh case so there you go that's about the shape of an Altoid case actually this is probably an not toids case they just ripped everything off it and also included in the kit is a bunch of capacitors very cool more capacitors more capacitors am I focus Canon come on and a bunch of parts including a USB connection well that's really cool look at that and a connector for what looks like a 9vt battery and I'm not sure what that is might be the chip that tells it what to do I'm not sure obviously I'll look into that you get a little logic board well I'm going to call it a logic board really just a board it it says USB charger on it Berg B RG very cool and finally less than not least you do get an included 9vt battery so guys overall this kit sounds pretty cool and definitely something I'm going to check out so finally again if you're interested in a new hobby box get a new Hobb box.com and don't forget to use my code David all caps to save $3 of course that information is right below for your convenience I know Maui it sounds pretty cool maybe they can introduce like a cat house building kit probably not so there is everything I just opened aside from the knife obviously I'm laughing cuz Maui you were not supposed to be in there you're guaranteed to knock things come on you're guaranteed to knock things down yep there goes Subzero you murderer and my Apple batteries what okay get get you just destroyed my Tetra stuff come on M be cool anyway guys this is just going to be a great weekend and I'm excited to share my experiences with you and oh my God last night I'm pointing to that cuz I edited the video on that last night I finally beat Flappy goats and goat simulator which just happened to give me my platinum trophy I freaked out I caught my live reaction using my canary security cam so you know what real quick I'm going to roll that video enjoy and just keep in mind the quality is not the best especially when in full screen I know I know just another video where David enjoys making a fool of himself you got to admit that that was funny and I promise you that was a 100% percent per legit reaction leg what am I doing anyway guys for anyone who has played Goat Simulator and the little mini game Flappy goat which is obviously based on Flappy Bird then you know by now that it is insanely difficult to get a score of 10 which is required to get that trophy now I have no problem playing Flappy Bird I can easily score over a 100 but Flappy goats the Collision detection it just sucks and it makes the game so much harder than it should be but anyway I really hope you enjoyed the video and if for whatever reason you missed that you can also find it right below in the video description okay let's get my day started let's enjoy some coffee let's have some quick breakfast and then preview the pat only Vlog and unbox the monitor cuz then I have two blog posts to type today and then I can enjoy the snow which isn't coming until tonight but still today's is going to be a busy day let's get started the northeastern uh region of the silence David guys check it out I finally updated my amiibo collection speaking of amiibo Maui do you mind moving my amiibo cards that I still need to open I'll actually open them in a second anyway I finally updated my amiibo collection on Davids things.com check it out do a little refresh and then I will sort by new and boom there you go Rosalina Mewtwo live body kicks Mabel and I think that's it all right so while searching around on Amazon I did come across a few Animal Crossing amiibo that I do not own yet and I kind of need to get on that soon David soon you've been spending a lot of money lately but at least I didn't have to spend money on my vanity transparent one speakers which will be going on this setup because great news I just got the email a few minutes ago from vanu with my UPS shipment notification the speakers are scheduled to be here next Friday which is a week from today which I think is a little a little much I don't know I see him being here by like Wednesday but they're probably under promising and over whatever that phrase anyway David stop it you get the point damn it David you Babble on too much anyway the speakers are coming next Friday um so that'll complete my new setup Simplicity guys it's all about Simplicity a single 31 inch 4K display I'll be unboxing that soon just got of get through this Vlog first make sure everything looks good then my van 2 speakers and then two of these will be going over there two two monitors along with maybe my Logitech speakers I don't want to have these speakers go away suddenly you having fun now so the speakers will go over here probably you know and by the way I definitely have to give Bruce some air he has seen better days it's okay maybe I'll do that today and either next week or the following week I'm going to buy myself a white Xbox one because I have like $160 in Amazon gift cards mainly thanks to you guys so thank you so much so I'm going to be throwing that towards a white Xbox One Gears of War bundle and I can get it for only like $170 or something like that that now I don't want the one Tab model I mean I wouldn't mind one tab but I'm not really crazy about spending that much extra just for one ter and plus this new Xbox one is going to be mainly focused on streaming and nothing else well besides the occasional video on YouTube of course but that's the thing I'm not going to be installing all of my games on it like I had been with my primary Xbox One and yes I will be getting a second PS4 eventually I think I have a sponsor in the works for that but the Xbox one I at least wanted to buy myself and yes like I said I'm going for the white model with a white desk it's going to look hot so stay tuned guys a lot of good things are happening and of course I couldn't do this without you so thank you for everything and check out my basil my God it's getting huge who's that sexy man that's me and there you have it the newest exclusive Vlog for patrons is now live and no I have not unboxed my monitor yet but I am being very patient I want to unbox it right now and actually I was going to but I'm feeling kind of nauseous I haven't really had anything real to eat yet besides sausage I love my sausages in the morning you know you know nice pair of sausages all right lunchtime so I can get some food in my system so I can feel good about this unboxing and then camera work David and then I shall unbox that beauty but guys you know what the best part of this is I mean I'm obviously not going anywhere this weekend so I have all weekend to play with my 4k monitor just play games with friends not play Goat Simulator I'm done with that game Flappy goat can suck it um I'm going to play more pickle 2 and maybe purchase another game on Xbox One CU I'm trying to balance out my time between both consoles you know me play anything and play everything don't play favorites that's one thing you should not play unless you really really really despise a certain console but there's no reason to despise any console even even the Wii U it doesn't have that strong third party support but the first party support Nintendo is outstanding unlike this autofocus looks like I'll be making myself a minute steak it's been a while they are good though and obviously very easy that'll do little sloppy but it's whatever it all comes out the same place you know anyway Parks and Rec time and then I shall unbox that 4K Beauty oh hello this show is seriously just awesome and dare I say it's up there with the office like it is damn funny it makes me laugh so much take note NBC I know they do both shows anyway here we go NBC this is how you do a final season of a show that people are so dedicated to unlike season 9 of the office which is mostly and believe me I'm a DieHard fan of the office I'm obsessed with the show I've seen every episode multiple times but the final season is just not that great now Grant it has a handful of good episodes but every episode so far in the final season of parks and wreck is just excellent and I'm currently on episode 12 was my next one right yeah episode 12 that's how you do a show now besides season 9 I love the office the office is just okay so I don't have to tell you guys this I love the office it's my all-time favorite show but it is it is nice mixing things up a bit parks and R is definitely quite good and would you look at that it's a little gloomy outside I sense some snow on the horizon oh yes yes I do and after my monitor is all set up I will finally get this set up my okra 7 ports USB hub to charge my iPhone my iPad Mini Samsung Galaxy Note 5 LG V10 and LG G4 yep got all the cables right here three micros and two Lightnings boom Maui I honestly did not see you there how are you did you get bard of your box all right let's do this I'm a little nervous is that weird I mean this is one of those rare unboxings where it has a significant impact on my workflow holy red this doesn't help does it yeah it's a little dark in here looks like I'm going to have to turn on Z video lights man I can't wait to start transforming this setup I'm going to start that today actually and there she is 31 in of 4K Beauty now obviously it's not hooked up yet cuz I saw to move these three displays around but cool good start and man my office exploded with lgy goodness stay tuned guys stay tuned I will definitely be giving you some First Impressions very shortly that's all that's left of the monitors I've been robbed they're just over here chilling until it's time but man I'm essentially taking my entire setup down so it from scratch that way it's nice and organized clean simplified not just kind of thrown together getting there I'm looking forward to booting you up and this for those wondering is how I manage my cables this is how my setup appears clean for the most part check it out hold on God I haven't opened this in so long I'm going to have to put the camera down look at that actually it's not too crazy it's really just a power strip with a bunch of cables plugged in it's nothing like out of this world but man guys I'm telling you this one plastic box makes your setup appear so much cleaner so with that said if you're interested right below check it out and yes there is my LED strip kit in case you're seeing it in the background here's my little remote boom I love it it's on every single night and it makes my office look awesome so I just opened up my Mac Pro for the first time in quite a while my God look at this what a beautiful computer Apple did a phenomenal job at engineering this look at it it's a work of art it looks so great with the shell off and obviously it looks great with the shell on but I really wish you could buy like a translucent uh case or whatever or even like straight up transparents but the thing is this this has a built-in sensor so this switch yeah basically stops you from lifting it even while the computer is on so the computer basically won't boot unless the shell is on which makes sense for obvious reasons but my God look at this computer and guys it is surprisingly clean I mean there's a little bit of dust here and there that'll clean out eventually but for not opening this in months maybe even like a year looks downright good Simplicity look at that Simplicity indeed move this over I cannot wait to get my vanit speakers and guys get this van two is nice enough to not only send me the speakers for a review but they're also throwing in two desktop stands that way the speakers are kind of lifted up and the audio hits me as it should and not only that but the speaker stands will also free up quite a bit of room whereas the speaker will probably be up this high and over there thus making even more room for my Mac Pro to look well like it's shiny self because I'm so happy the Mac Pro is showing cuz you guys know by now nothing has been hidden behind monitors for over a year now that's insane this beautiful computer deserves to be seen so there it is I've not booted it up yet I'm going to take a break for coffee yes I realize it's not perfectly aligned with the windows I might have to move it well window I might have to move it an inch to the right man that looks clean as hell meanwhile down here we got like a monitor graveyard going on no these monitors aren't dead but um this desk will go against that wall but I'll worry about that later I'm a little distracted by the song you hear it such a familyfriendly song in the background David well done anyway guys it's coffee time I need it my God cable management is so freaking frustrating also I've decided it's not snowing yet so who cares I'm going to waa I'm going to go to waa tonight and get myself a 24 oce coffee and a little snack for our gaming session tonight I'm assuming we're all going to play some GTA now that my career of being a goat is officially over I can get back into being social again cuz I've kind of sat myself in a little corner by myself and I was like I'm getting this done I'm getting the platinum trophy and I got the platinum trophy it was totally worth it guys what was that base oh my God okay obviously video is not going to do it justice but oh my God everything is so freaking tiny oh OS 10 you are handling this beautifully oh my everything is so sharp now like on my MacBook Pro um this is kind of retina so I'm going to have to adjust things oh my god look how small this is in preferences window is holy crap this is insane I'm going to have to increase the brightness wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow I'm sorry I know I'm annoying let's bring it down a bit make things a little bigger okay that's more that's more realistic but holy crap so right now it says it looks like 496 X 2160 and the other one is 38 x 1586 and then 2560 x350 which is very close to what I was using before 2048 by 1080 and 1504 by 793 such odd odd resolutions but yeah so let's use 496 X 2160 which again is insanely small come on focus Canon this is a moments in history maybe I can get used to the I don't know think things are a little small I I probably will do a resolution down so 38x 1586 that's still a higher resolution that I was previously using of 2560 x440 oh my God I don't know I'm I'm kind of tempted to use the largest resolution everything is so small and crisp I mean I could always increase the size of the text L net options guys I have options and oh my God am I happy I went this route look how clean my setup is holy crap you have to experience 4K in person this is just beautiful all right time to play around and get this um set up properly I am truly truly squirting pixels all over the place guys check this out this is a full 1080p resolution video unscaled yes look that is 1080p right there and look at all the screen real estate I have around it just insanity this is true Insanity oh my God I'm so glad I finally jumped on the 4K well worth it guys well freaking worth it I'm so happy with this purchase FICA Pro 10 test okay so this is the old size now this is the new size let's put it over there boom look at that now things may appear bigger that's because I actually scaled the resolution up just a notch I mean guys believe me the other resolution looks downright beautiful I mean look at this you can fit an insane amount of space and I actually might switch to that when editing video and working with Photoshop and all that but for day-to-day use I think this is more than enough the text is nice and large you can actually read it from this distance I just love the option of scaling resolutions just like on my MacBook Pro it's definitely very handy and I'll probably install that app up there I can't think of what it's called it's like a display app that lets you change resolutions on the Fly I shall look into that because I have that on my MacBook Pro and it works great I just forget the app name I could just open up my MacBook Pro and look all right let's go do that there she is my favorite notebook of all time all right uh let me see I don't think I have it in the menu bar anymore I had to figure out what it's called where is it I'll find it and let you guys know oh display menu there it is this lets you quickly change resolutions up here look at that right from the convenience of your menu bar very nice oh this is just beautiful I can finally watch my 4K videos in 4k just amazing very cool now you might notice the pillars on the side they're very tiny pillars it's because my display is true 4K which I believe is what 17x 9 I've used 16 by9 and 16 x 10 in the past but I think this is my first 17 by9 monitor it's not a bad thing it still looks absolutely amazing oh my God it is so crisp holy like I am loving this the quality is just outstanding now of course what you're seeing on video isn't doing it oh my God those apples look incredible they look like they're right here so good so freaking good I am squirting pixels all over myself oh and this just proves another thing the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus Beautiful 4k camera dear Lord I know Mai I'm freaking out it's wrapping up soon oh my God the text on that Banner insane incredible all right I'll stop here and by the way I have decided that when I'm using this every day I'm going to scale the resolution down by one notch the text is just a little too small like it hurt it hurts your eyes a little bit oh my God I could just eat that freaking Plum insane but uh yeah so for day-to-day usage I'll have the resolution scale down by one but when I'm editing video there's no reason why I can't bump it up a bit or if I want to get two spreadsheets not spreadsheets but documents side by side then I can but I still can do that in a lower resolution which keep in mind by the way the lower resolution is still a higher resolution than what I was previously using so either way you look at this it's a huge win bye apples bye incredible just I know I'm using adjectives over and over again but for anyone who owns a 4k monitor you know exactly what I'm talking about I will be linking this monitor right below treat yourself and check this out I actually have enough room for pretty much anything on my desk this was exactly my video Vision shout out to Tiff I'm watching your Essen unboxing but yes guys this is exactly what I wanted a somewhat permanent place for my iPad Pro for that exactly podcast I want to be able to watch podcasts I mean I usually do on my secondary monitor or my third monitor but clearly I don't have them anymore now I have this big ass display and now this and I can use this for podcasts YouTube stuff like that while still being focused on one display and that's what it's all about Noe Maui your days of being on my desk are over come on exit the premise goodbye my love I'm going to Wawa but I promise I'll be back soon God I love these lights they never get old I know I'm saying this for like the eighth time but man I'm so excited about getting these monitors set up I'll probably get the desk at least moved tomorrow I'm going to put it against that wall as for this I don't know where this is going obviously somewhere with power nearby because not going to sacrifice the life of my plants all right it is time for Wawa and yeah it's already snowing so I'm going to have to clean off my car I almost canceled it U I was saying David you really need to go to Wawa you have plenty of coffee air plenty of snacks plenty of food oh yeah I kind of kind of do need to get go guys I don't really need to but I should plus I promised myself a 24 oz coffee Go Outlet was weird here's the snow this is what we have so far it's looking good this is obviously very mild compared to what we're going to be getting overnight again the forecast I believe is between 12 and 18 in it looks really nice doesn't it look at that it's just beautiful of course my Cannon's having trouble focusing can't really blame it because do low light but cool there you go very nice all right let's get inside my hand's cold cuz I just cleaned off my car with a blanket I'm G headed like that whatever it takes yo whatever it takes and I have the heat on in here beautiful shaky footage stabilized Wawa yeah surprisingly busy I was driving there and the roads were like a ghost town I barely saw any cars but then I pulled up the W there's people everywhere I guess getting last minute milk you know people love their milk bread and eggs during snowstorms hey I love milk I love bread and eggs so I don't blame them I guess anyway I got my 24 oz coffee shout out to Dawn cuz I know you appreciate wob coffee as much as I do and it's still just a dollar come on can't beat it now I'm mad and I got two Tasty Cake Pies Two for $2 so why not Cherry one of them's for gaming tonight I'm not eating both I'm not that much of a fat ass and apple yeah like the company no just the fruit all right oh by the way I'm cooking tonight I know shocker actually I cook pretty much every night guys just ask my patrons for proof I cook pretty much every night of my life especially this week I've been making a lot of tacos burritos wraps and that's exactly what I'm having tonight ranch chicken wraps so let's get home and cook not meth uh but it's already past 8:00 so come on let's go that means now guys M yes yes welcome home my love I shall consume you after dinner update on the snow there you go OB not much of a difference but still also to my new drivers out there little tip for you park at the end of your driveway it makes it a lot easier to shovel the snow you just think about it Mr snowplow man is going to come here regardless he's going to come through here with this big ass vehicle and block you in anyway but what about the snow from here to there boom yes less snow to shovel so park at the end of your driveway it makes a huge difference because believe me usually I park here and then I have all that snow to shovel that will not be the case either tomorrow or Sunday now yes I realize this is probably common sense to most people but if just one person learns from that tip then I've done my job and even I forget sometimes because last year I think I didn't move my car and I ended up shoveling for like an hour whereas tomorrow or Sunday I'll shovel for what 10 minutes that's nothing I might as well shovel in the nude and I might just do that not that I have any sexy neighbors mostly old people okay before I do this clip I just want to give a quick disclaimer please for the love of God ignore my dirty stove and my dirty counter I swear all of this was clean just a week ago about a week ago uh mainly because of my tacos this happened but anyway this is what I'm working with shop right was pretty much out of all the good chicken and beef so I was forced to get shredded chicken which just looks disgusting it looks terrible but I've had a few wraps already using this not tonight I don't eat that many wraps but last night and I believe the night before no last night and no yeah just last night just two round CPS David shut up anyway it looks weird but it's pretty good so if you're looking for an alternative roots of chicken go the shredded root it's not bad and it Cooks extremely fast cuz it's so thin well that's just what you want to see right a minute clip of raw meat don't you just love my channel yeah all right I am done chicken lettuce salsa cheddar cheese ranch and a thin stripe of hot sauce Franks this video is brought to you by Frank swings hot sauce buyers today are your local

get come on get fool just doing it for your own safety stay look at that beautiful beautiful beautiful beautiful all right sorry I got to close the door so Maui doesn't run out into Z wild but as you can see it's quite windy from this view very nice of course I'll show you guys more tomorrow good night see you in the morning or realistically at this point the afternoon yep I wasn't kidding when I that afternoon it's 12:10 and I'm just not getting up I kind of stayed up a little while after I signed off last night I you know had some Lucky Charms and watched an episode of Full House I really like having cereal late at night all right guys check out the snow a lot of drifts so obviously there's different inches in different places here we go here is the left corner where that little shed used to be there very nice as you can see there's a little little drift right over there which is awesome and as you can probably hear it's very windy out damn lot of snow some pretty good drifts nothing insane though I mean this is a pretty good amount but I've actually seen more snow however this is definitely above average cuz don't forget this is technically a blizzard we're in hey Maui and the lighting in here just looks awesome right now I just love love the way the light reflects off snow especially at night when it kind of appears like it's late in the day it's just a cool feeling and let's go in here and just look at my monitor again why not look at that beauty my God I cannot wait to get the vanit 2 speakers though cuz my setup looks kind of weird those speakers look so tiny but my vanity speakers with the stands will kind of be like this high so visually the setup is going to be very balanced and guys look I love this I love being able to show off my Mac Pro that's a big deal and look my iPad PR is there Excellence I'm loving it and I think I'm going to have to eat these soon I feel bad saying that but they're kind of overgrowing actually maybe I'll eat them tonight or tomorrow because I've been meeting the bank um spaghetti and I'm going to make sauce and you're can to throw a basil on it right I don't know it's going to be a little sad eating them but I have to do that soon because um I want to throw in new capsules soon maybe like tomatoes or Peppers which is something I think is going to be more exciting I mean this is very nice but I want to visually watch some type of item grow like a Pepper or tomato like I said so but hey Bas was a great start I'm just babbling guys I'm still pretty tired I don't care though it's Saturday today's my chill day I mean I will I will be getting some work done cuz I usually type two articles a day at least that was this week's goal but I only typed one yesterday I was sitting down watching TV yesterday or a movie eating my dinner and I was like oh I didn't do my daily two articles but that's only because of my monitor back there that kind of occupied my day you can't BL me so I'm going to do my best to type at least one article today hello Ma how are you you hear that noise all right shower time cuz I need it my shower is complete and this is what I'll be wearing today this is why I love being snowed in it's a perfect excuse to just relax at home not have a worry in the world this is amazing and guys oh my God this hoodie is so comfortable I'm not sure who got it from me for Christmas either my mom or Christen did probably my mom but this hoodie oh my God it is so comfortable the inside is so soft it's thick AF which means it's going to keep me nice and warm and it's heavy this is really freaking heavy for a hoodie but between this and my thick Angry Birds pants I am set set for today I'm going to edit my LG monitor unboxing enjoy my coffee make some progress in piggle 2 and maybe buy a game on Xbox one since I have some leftover credit like I was saying earlier so today is going to be a good day and as is tomorrow and by the way speaking of tomorrow I think I'm going to wait until tomorrow to show you guys some actual outside footage of the snow because one it's still snowing and two um it's very windy like it's very very windy outside so I don't want to risk getting the camera all wet you know snow gets on it melts get in there get on the center that's not good guys that's that's not good I'm going to start some sausage coffee and then just enjoy my day yes the what I look pretty no I don't look pretty it's okay you guys can be honest I just uploaded a quick video the snow to Facebook if you guys follow me there facebook.com/ David the Franco check it out I appreciate it and good day my my beauty you not going outside let's get some work done let's get some work done oh God blur blur blur why is it now waking up feel he going to guard outside no you're staying inside why okay there it goes huh little slower boot up than your typical monitor that's okay not a big deal here look actually try to run outside no I love my ma guys look at all this desk space so much room for activities look at this this is truly truly awesome oh my God I'm so happy I made this change my monitor unboxing is complete guys I know I'm obsessing over this but look at this look how huge my video View viewer is that's just massive and keep in mind for like the 16th time I'm not even running 4K resolution right now it's the first resolution under the max resolution and that's saying a lot so in theory if I ever wanted to switch to 4K while I'm watching videos or I wanted to fit as much information on the screen as possible I could switch in just a couple of clicks amazing if you guys are thinking about getting this monitor I definitely recommend it it's beautiful it's about $11,000 with the warranty but you know what if you're serious about your work like I am and having a clean setup you're going to love it I know I am the things you find on YouTube I just completely ran I don't I don't know how I came across this girl but I came across this girl with the title Tinder got me pregnant so I was like okay fine I'm curious I'll check it out she's cute and whatever so I watched a video video she met this guy on Tinder which is cool nothing wrong with that I mean I'm on Tinder and you know they hit it off blah blah blah they Skyped talked on the phone went on a date went home hooked up had sex and she asked him if he wanted to use protection and he refused to use a condom I'm sorry but why wouldn't you use protection especially with a stranger am I I I don't get it I don't get it and now she's pregnant with like her third kid and she's 30 years old she's not like some 17 18y old who isn't experienced in life yet that just blows my mind I know I know it's not my business but when you put it out on YouTube it's kind of hard to not express your opinion I mean am I alone in that I mean I'm very smart I would never ever risk getting a girl pregnant that I'm not serious about ever sorry I just had to rent real quick let's make pizza look at this I'm so triggered I'm not even getting n cheese anyway it's whatever I just had to express my opinion about that real quick all right pizza time yes a making pizza I've noticed my skin gets red if I start to rain you see that like I start to break out that's so weird I love this stuff so much pizza crusts pizza sauce mozzarella cheese pepperoni such an easy lunch dinner whatever oh battery's flashing got to swap it out wow the pizza is cooking I'm going to search the Xbox store to find a game I like Xbox on good good so I decided to buy layers of fear for about $12 I don't think that's bad and this is a game preview which is very interesting it basically warns you saying this game is a work in progress it may or may not change over time and may not release as a final product now I've heard of layers of fear online before I think on PC I'm not totally sure but you know what it's a horror game based on Art Best of Both Worlds but first my pizza's done so I'm going to enjoy that watch an episode of Parks and wreck and then play layers of fear not going to lie I'm a little nervous because you guys know me I jump very easily but it should be cool oh yes God I love pizza pepperoni pepperoni pepperoni bling you know Parkson wreck is complete man what a great show I'm going to miss this so much especially Ron Swanson I just love his character just all the characters they're just so great they're so unique parks and the comedy is great the saddest part about watching this episode is I didn't know it was a finale until I actually saw it in the menu I assumed there was like 20 episodes there's only 12 in the last season that's kind of disappointing but you know what like I said yesterday this season overall is how you do a final season of a show man excellent entertainment and if you have not watched parks and wreck please do so and I got to say parks and wck is a show that I didn't really get into at first like the first season I was like okay whatever then season 2 really grabbed me so check it out all right it is time to switch back to Xbox Xbox on layers of fear guys layers of fear of course I'm going to make coffee and this I'll probably start this tomorrow cuz honestly the rest of my day I mean I typed an article already which is good hello iPad prizzle so I have all day tomorrow to do this the rest of my day I've honestly just feel like playing video games relaxing playing uh layers of fear and then maybe finally starting Final Fantasy 10 on PS4 cuz I bought that and Final Fantasy 10 to for I think $25 it was so cheap two full games for that price oh my God I get to open a new box of San Francisco Bay one cups love this brand trying to do this with one hand there you go hold it with my arm all right guys hold on hold on there you go oh baby so much coffee 80 cups to be exact and my God the music and layers of fear is beautiful it has a very Heavy Rain feel to it and that's a good thing by the way this is my first pre-release game that I've ever purchased uh there was a free option meaning I guess you could try it and if you like it then buy it but this is really cool that you can buy pre software on the Xbox one I I had no idea can you do that on PS4 I don't know cuz I've never actually seen it um but the game even warned me again saying this is pre-release software Microsoft does not offer any support the game May crash you do not have access to multiplayer but it's pretty cool that's going to be updated over time I don't know I think it's pretty neat all right coffee is made shutting the light off of course volume's nice and high and finally do not disturb yep I take my horror games pretty seriously let's do this I'll give you guys some First Impressions shortly well there you have it a couple hours later and it looks like I finished the preview it's not bad and I'm pretty sure I'm more than halfway through the game at least judging from the dialogue of the main character dear Lord anyway Impressions good game easily worth $12 I think maybe even 15 if you're really into the whole jump scare genre like I am and trust me I actually had to pause the game a couple times cuz some crazy standing at the end of the hallway crying her eyes out and you know you got to walk towards her you just have to walk towards her and you know something's going to go wrong I I was more freaked out by the overall atmosphere than the jump scares the jump scares aren't as scary as they are in outlast and especially PT nothing beats PT for me oh my God PT is the scariest video game um experience that I've ever done like it is up there but this game is more chill it's not like Outlast where you had to run from anything that's why Outlast is more scary to me because I hate the idea of something chasing me especially with surround toown although I got to say this game utilizes suron pretty well especially with random creatures or whatever enemies I don't know like banging on do like that scares me but uh overall cool experience and I bought it for 12 bucks so it says there will be updates in the near future so now I just got to patiently wait it's already 7:30 so I guess I'll make dinner now and then uh probably start Final Fantasy 10 on PS4 yeah probably start that and then tomorrow I'm hoping to finally start South Park the Stick of Truth on Xbox 360 which is fully backwards compatible with Xbox one which is pretty cool can't slower from here I wasn't talking to you Xbox I don't blame him though cuz I said Xbox anyway cool game check it out you might like it I did no I do think I can meet the girl who was always mean to me Tammy bck stole my pretty soon there will be a monitor sitting exactly where you are I'll be doing that tomorrow but tonight check it out I finally hooked up my okra 7 Port charger I'm currently using my iPhone 6s Galaxy um s 6 no Galaxy really David Galaxy Note 5 uh LG G4 LG V10 and my iPad Mini 4 all right let's see if this works now keep in mind these phones are probably not going to turn on instantly because they they've been dead for quite some time and yes I still have to do a video on this I promise I will just you know now that all the Christmas craziness and all that stuff is done really Maui that I you know I'm finally getting back on my regular schedule all right excuse me ma oh relax all right here we go three two one nice iPhone lit up iPad lit up the G4 is booting the Note 5 is booting and the LG V10 I don't know I don't see any kind of indication that it tried to turn on H what's the deal here come on V10 you can do it going try the power button but the other ones worked automatically uh oh I got to look into this I don't know I switched USB ports and the V10 still wouldn't boot right away I'll give it time maybe it'll boot in a minute but everything else is working so that's cool excellent and if you guys are interested in buying this for yourself link right below hey M I'm sorry to kick you out of the scene but trying to get stuff done yo you're so cute isn't he cute guys tell him he's cute Maui my viewer there you go my viewers have something to tell you you're cute he's like I know and yes I'm watching actual TV shocker I know Big Bang Theory this show is actually really funny I have to start watching it more te and now is I need to think about dinner I'm not going to watch a movie tonight cuz it's almost 9:00 already and I want to play Final Fantasy 10 for probably two hours or so before we play GTA 5 gamer problems I got bread I might just make peanut butter and toast with a glass of milk how's that for a dinner Maui I know I'm poor no I'm not poor I have plenty of food I just don't know what to make I have chicken corn blue with veggies but I don't feel like making that I have those minute steaks but I had that the other day was that yesterday yeah yesterday this weekend feels really long cuz of the snow I ate all my chicken so I can't do taco stuff and I had pizza earlier today so I'm not going to have pizza for dinner exuse me and I'll spaghetti tomorrow cuz I want to try to use that basil it's just going to look up how to do it I'm going to feel bad cutting that but I think it's time to swap it out for Peppers or tomatoes or pumpkins no I'm kidding I'm not I'm not going to grow pumpkins in my office that' be pretty cool though good afternoon Maui how are you today yeah you're good boy tired yeah me too guys I woke up past 12 today like 1210 12:15 trust me I'm ashamed and yes I need to clean my stove again as usual last night was just so much fun with everyone on GTA I didn't go to bed till around like 5:00 a.m. cuz I finally watched the first episode of Catfish thank you Joey image for making that possible now the movie was really good I enjoyed it so I figured why not check out the TV show and I got to say the first episode wasn't disappointing I felt bad for the gosh it's really cute too but I guess that's the old point of catfish anyway I'm wearing my hat today to keep my head warm stupid doesn't have any gloves I don't think I have any gloves in the house anyway so I'm going to be a little cold today shoveling but don't forget what I said Friday night because I park the car so low I don't need to shovel that much I'm going to shovel the snow behind my car and then shovel just a small path to my front door for the mailman UPS fatex Whoever has to use the path um but of course I'm going to take you guys um along for the ride cuz I want to show you some snow because despite what I may have said yesterday we still got a lot of snow it's just really hard to measure because there are drifts everywhere so there's no real like accurate measurement of the snow we got here but we did get a lot in some areas more than others stay tuned all right so let's get this started there is the back of my sun room with Maui he kind of wants to come out but Maui you're staying inside so there are the steps I had a huge drift on here yesterday but all of it blew off here's my feet like the distance see it's not too bad right here but I've had my eyes on these drifts back here as you can see we got a pretty nice path which is pretty cool but look at that there's a big ass drift back there so let's go see how deep it is man snow is beautiful holy fudge oh my God I didn't expect going to be that deep oh my god oh I can't see where I'm going this is funny I don't have snow boots or anything either so my feet are going to be freezing afterwards holy crap this is what I'm talking about guys look at these drifts oh my God look at that I kind of want to see how deep it goes look at that boom way down there that is cool of course I'm not going to go all the way in cuz I kind of want to shovel without being too cold cuz the breeze is gone so it's not really that cold out today it's 30° which might seem cold to a lot of you but it's really not that cold oh as you can see an animal pass by here deep prints too look a cat print that right there is another thing I love about the snow is you can kind of track the paths of animals that just happen to pass by that is awesome oh God I almost fell I almost fell all right back on land that was cool all right now let's go look at the back of my car that's the part I'll be shoveling hopefully it's not too bad it's like a realtime tour isn't it it's my front door it's nice and soft snow so it's not going to be too hard to shovel the worst kind of snow to shovel is the ice okay this is going to be the most challenging part where the snow plow man put all this oh my God look at this yeah I'm going to have to shovel all that that's a good amount of snow impressive Mother Nature very impressive not bad let me go back here one more time to take a picture forgetful me didn't have his iPhone on him so going to go back here take a picture of the uh just the what whatever you want to call it the heights of the snow the depth what a crazy drift man if I can get around this drift somehow there's like a middle area where I can stand between the drifts hm I don't think that's realistic though oh my God it's really hard to walk I don't think that's realistic cuz again the snow is really soft so I would fall right through as you can see there's a little um whatam call it like a hole in the middle man I am losing my mind on all these words right now okay let's take pictures oh my God my shoveling is is done I say m I'm not doing everything like I said I'm just doing the path behind my car so I can leave tomorrow if I need to go anywhere like wow or whatever thankfully I think I'm home all week so it's not like I need to leave anytime soon and I made a short path to the mailbox for Mr Mailman dude I'm thinking to dive okay now that the not so fun part of snow is done you know shoveling whatever I think I'm going to dive into that drift shout out to Charle you actually inspired me to do this and then somebody else posted on Facebook just now sorry I I miss your name but you said that I should dive into the snow actually Jessica quez was it you the problem is snow is like a mask you don't know what's under this and by the way there's more cat prints over there I saw them earlier do you think I should dive into this I don't know where I would set the camera up because I definitely would not want to get this wet my iPhone is fine that that that can handle water to an extent H I don't know where I hold on guys hold on I'm going to figure this out actually that might work so here we go instagram.com David the Franco follow me and again let's just hope there is nothing under the snow like logs or whatever cuz that would hurt that would be not good at all so here we go flip the camera this is the E find peeps here we go okay it wasn't as soft as I was hoping it would be but it feels good oh God I didn't go nearly as deep as I thought it would cu the snow is all settled by now oh my Apple watch just soaked and my hand is freezing let's go let's go inside and save my watch which I forgot about until I landed it's okay it's water resistant I don't think it's going to fail or anything it actually felt kind of good all right let's go inside and make some coffee all right one more experiment let's see how mie feels about the snow M come on outside come on you can do it it's just snow Maui come on good boy what a brave Kitty just follow my footprints here you go come on good boy yeah good job Ma you like the snow I'm proud of you of course he retreats to the garage come on Mal come on it's no fun in here you want to go outside all right maie I'm doing this for your your own good I love you but I I just want to see how how how you react good boy see that's not so bad he's walking weird he's like how do I walk in this good boy oh you're so cute good boy yes now you look amazing in the snow like a work of art by the way my watch is working just fine all right let's go inside now let's make some coffee oh calm down my little snow kitty yeah God you're heavy Maui you might have to go on a diet like me next month oh God good boy well that was fun all right man I really really wish I could go sledding I I haven't gone sledding in years guys sledding is so much fun oh my God good times well that didn't take long my coffee is made and what you looking at PJ pants are right back on with some nice dry socks cuz my legs were pretty wet but cool it is time to continue yes look I looking up music from GTA 5 last night it is time to continue editing the weekend Vlog vlog yes I got a nice little head start on it last night before playing games with the peeps we are at 38 minutes and 45 seconds not bad and I did not do it yesterday so I'm hoping to at least move my white desk against another wall along with two monitors and get that started again that's not going to be up for at least a week or two cuz I have to buy the Xbox One first and all that but uh anyway here we go guys this is my day edit then I'm hoping to play South Park to Stick of Truth finally um and I started Final Fantasy 10 last night it was good incredibly cheesy which is kind of funny because back in the days at the PS2 we didn't really think that was cheesy but by Teddy standards my God it's a pretty cheesy game but the battle system is fun and I only played like a half hour of it so obviously I have a lot more to experience but the music oh the music's incredible Final Fantasy is one of my favorite games for soundtracks The Bu oui matu is a genius oh look more pizza and I'm okay with that but this time I put a very thin layer of hot sauce on the very bottom so you know just looking to mix things up a bit all right time to watch an episode of catfish and then I'm going to continue working in my office welcome back Bruce welcome back you're fully blown up and looking good check this out I have my third generation Apple TV hooked up to my Asus pb278q and it's looking great I have decided of course I'm watching the office naturally number PS4 chargers right there well dual Tru 4 chargers technically there's the yre charger which by the way the V10 number is working I just didn't hold the power button down long enough last night and my books are over here okay so my original Vision was to put this Monitor and Apple TV over here in the corner just because visually I think it will look better but it was just a little too far from my bed so when I'm going to bed and waking up in the morning I like to watch things in the background I don't know I just like background noise whether it's that or Alexa hello all right then ignore me she probably got distracted by the noise in here anyway it's really really nice having this here and check this out I was blown away by the menu like everything is so crisp on this monitor since I'm used to seeing it on my 46 in TV look at that look at the text oh my God it almost looks retina I mean obviously it's not retina but this looks beautiful great movie great movie haven't seen it haven't seen it haven't seen it haven't seen it oh Everest sounds interesting just just from the title huh maybe we watch that tonight if it's on any other uh platform because I'm not going to pay $6 for that no I I can I can patiently wait oh the visit too the visit as well I should say the visit that's out huh I kind of been meaning the see that anyway the Apple TV looks amazing on this Monitor and this is definitely something I will be using quite often this is just awesome productive day finally get in this corner uh together and check it out I finally moved some things around this is going to be so badass two monitors eventually two consoles so I can't have stations now originally I was going to have the monitors facing me at an angle but I don't want a game on an angle that's terrible trust me I've done it before in my old setup it's just not fun so this is going to be awesome aome I'm going to try to fit a PS4 and an Xbox one on each side if not I'll put the Xbox One in the middle cuz again I'm going for the white console which is just going to look amazing and the PS4 will go somewhere if I can stand it vertically so cool this is phase one obviously a very very early stage with plenty more to come and the Shelf I think is going to stay there I mean I kind of want to put the lights over here but I do like having the books next to the desk it just looks very awful like holy crap Maui really he just jumped from the desk on here and crashed into me you all right you're a hyper key and I have to unbox that this week arcade block hey M you are so beautiful he you I'm sorry language David language I was trying to be romantic with you Mai but no it's okay okay respect respect and he's going to go after my legs you want to fight you want to fight I know I say this over and over again but man I am so proud of everything I've accomplished this is all from my YouTube work this is just incredible whoa whoa whoa Maui you're he just wrapped himself around my leg but anyway guys I thank you all the time but I just want to thank you again and I'm sure I'll thank you again in the future but you make this possible I mean if it wasn't for for YouTube and community and patreon and and all that stuff really M then this wouldn't be happening so I just want you guys to know that I'm incredibly incredibly thankful time to eat I love this cat I think it's time for more coffee why not and while it's almost 5:00 p.m. I think I'm going to sign off now guys I mean I've done a rough edit already and this video is easily over an hour long which is awesome that's pretty much my monthly go monthly goal yeah weekly goal look at it hold on hold on oh oh oh oh a little strip a sun in my face oh I like that anyway seriously guys I just want to thank you so much for your support in my opinion this was a very fun weekend Vlog between the first major snowstorm of 2016 AKA a blizzard my 4k monitor arriving plenty of changes to my setup
