Coffee Break - May 8, 2020

- May 8, 2020
When the whole world is taking a coffee break at the same time, Zoom starts misbehaving. Once we figure out how to deal with the massive delay, we chat about Ron's new server rack and all the cable organization he'll be doing. That brings us to thoughts of tech hoarding: Is it really hoarding if you'll use it one day? Robbie thinks so as he regrets having e-wasted a 4U server chassis a few years back that would have come in very handy at the new studio. Speaking of holding on to old things, Peter has a soldering iron from the 1700's that still works. Solbu makes us wonder if lightbulbs were the original planned obsolescence product, and Robbie figures he knows why LED lightbulbs don't actually last 30 years. Joining Robbie Ferguson today are Solbu, Peter Lewis, Ron Morrissette and bp9.
