Lgr you made my night with this review, also I kinda want to see you throw a Bosch sound box off the side of a mountain now.

Oh my god!! I played that Trump game as a kid at a friend's house! We didn't really read the instructions too well as I recall, and I am not sure we really liked it. Wow I forgot that existed.

I had a random thought about something that only appeared in 90s games that maybe you could cover. Remember the "Boss Key"? It would put up a fake spreadsheet to fool your boss if you were playing games at work. Some were really inventive and I remember one space quest game would put up a long message telling your boss how long you were playing. Anyway, have a good one!

Lgr does, indeed, rule. Glad to see you powering through during the nightly hours!

Nice find on Silent Service II and Red Storm Rising.
Also, I guess it goes to you… you can never have enough pinecones at this time of year, though… any Trump is too much Trump. <shudders/>

This was filmed a month or two ago, so I imagine much of it is gone. But good luck!

Very rarely! I come across phones from 10 to 15 years ago all the time, but they're just your typical Nokias and such. Anything older I assume most people throw away, I've only ever found one Motorola from the early 90s!

One word about old osciloscopes, they are not as exact as they used to be. Because you know they age. Well a new analog osciloscpe is more presize than an digital osciloscope but still any kind of meter is today better than the analog osciloscope. I am thinking about getting one too but I am not so keen on bringin it the whole way to my university and spend an hour or to just to check it, and see what is wrong with them (because soem failurs you can live with if you know them).

Hey do you ever came across very oldschool mobile phones? I am sure you would include them but maybe you just didn't. I love oldschool phones from the early 90s and before. I have one here myself (And even with my battery upgrade it still lasts only about 6 hours but who cares).
And just as a fun fact do you know that mobile phones are called handies in germany! yes fricking handies! But that was all because of a Loewe Telephone called Handy. Weird huh? But I like that word. At least we stopped wearing body bags because that was cross!.

Dave Jones did a tear down of a Mavica camera a while back. It is a bit technical for most people though. <a href="https://youtu.be/1jPcYCcaHv0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/1jPcYCcaHv0</a>

Great thrifting man. I gotta say, seeing all that stuff at the Hendersonville Goodwill makes me want to swing back by it and grab a few tech goodies.

I think the only Puzz3D I ever finished was the White House one. It was small enough not to be a huge pain.

Ah, I figure they just tracked down the store, it's pretty easy to if you know my area!

Awesome. I find it gives the whole episode a different feel!

Not enough pinecones. Must have more. And too much Trump. Must have less.
And holy nuts! One of my thrifting hauls made it in the episode! (13:39 for those curious). I can now die a happy man.
Also, I had one of those Puzz3D things (Eiffel Tower). I never finished it because I was too impatient. :P

My dad has one of those Bosch sound boxes. They do look ridiculous, and he uses it to listen to music when he's sitting outside in the summer, haha. And lol at that LGR shoutout on the price tag. Good way to get something they want mentioned on Thrifts! That was a really clever idea! Hopefully that person isn't actually stalking you. :P

At 50 seconds in, this lack of natural light is already hitting all the right buttons for me.

You know you've gotten popular when... XD
I have an old, massive Puzz3D of New York City... I've only ever built it once and wow did it take forever... x_x;
Also, I had that exact Wheel of Fortune game when I was a kid. The push sliders for the game board were really finicky and cheap and you often felt like your fingers were breaking when trying to use them. :P

Thanks, I missed having footage to put together! Can only make an episode when I have enough :)
