How Apple Ruined GEM - And Nearly Windows, Too! ctrl-alt-rees 2023-05-13 | If you enjoyed this video please consider subscribing! It really helps the channel out. 🙂Digital Research's Graphics Environment Manager - or GEM - was released for PCs and the Atari ST in 1985. Unfortunately it was a liitle bit too close in look-and-feel to Apple's recently released OS on the Macintosh (and earlier the Lisa), leading to legal pressure to remove certain features. This is the story of how GEM 1 ultimately ended up being by far the most feature-packed release as a result, and how this may well have lead to Apple and Microsoft becoming the dominant desktop platforms throughout the 90s and beyond.

The Off-Grid DIY Solar Power Setup That Powers My Channel ctrl-alt-rees 2023-04-05 | This YouTube channel is entirely powered by a DIY off-grid solar kit setup that I built. It consists of 480W of Eco-Worthy solar panels, a Renogy Rover 40A MPPT charge controller, 80Ah (1kWh) of LiFePO4 batteries, and an EcoFlow RIVER 2 PRO portable power station.In this solar kit review and installation HOWTO I show how I installed the system, how much solar power I'm getting from it in the UK, and show that my YouTube channel and working from home efforts at least can be self-sufficient and off grid without the need for an expensive full house rooftop solar installation.Support the channel!Patreon: patreon.com/ctrlaltreesBecome a Member: youtube.com/channel/UCe7aGwKsc40TYqDJfjggeKg/joinKo-Fi: ko-fi.com/ctrlaltreesMy Solar Setup (Affiliate Links):MC4 to XT60 Cable: geni.us/cnfLZg4Renogy Rover 40A MPPT Charge Controller (Amazon): geni.us/z8ySSEco-Worthy 120W Solar Panel (Amazon): geni.us/2CId1AxEco-Worthy 240W Off Grid Solar Kit (Amazon): geni.us/qwccRenogy Shunt Battery Meter (Amazon): geni.us/ohciTaMaxico Energy Monitor (Amazon): geni.us/wDAJEco-worthy DIY Solar Kit (UK): bit.ly/3UnVniKEco-worthy DIY Solar Kit (US): bit.ly/3DWDBxKEcoFlow RIVER 2: geni.us/vAA3GEcoFlow RIVER 2 PRO: geni.us/2EbYZVFurther Viewing:Will Prowse Diode Video: youtube.com/watch?v=-x_6OLdAodsVIP Superfans:Action Retro: youtube.com/ActionRetroArthur LudwiczakDinty's Hideaway: youtube.com/channel/UCJPsl76e7jAORLi3NZlkjLQEndzsGary PinkettHas Beard, Plays Games: youtube.com/blcollierJames RodgersJustin D.
