Roasting Terrible Desk Setups - Setup Nightmares #15 youtu.be/GVUcA2nbJwY

pimp my setup might be coming back. the format needs a refresh but the idea still hits. how would you want to see it done in 2026?

the goxlr gets zero updates and i think i'm finally done with it. what are people using instead these days? drop your audio setup below.

the best youtube rabbit hole i've fallen into lately: watching someone start a 3D printing business from zero and vlog the whole thing. The 3D Print Stop. entertaining, educational, and i'm weirdly hooked. what channels like this are you watching? youtube.com/@the3dprintstop

got the new oakley meta glasses. i wish they weren't so thick but i'm excited to see how i can incorporate them into content creation. camera, mic, and AI built into sunglasses. wild times.

hot take: cable management is the most rewarding part of any setup. not the most fun, not the best part. but when it's done and everything is routed clean? nothing beats that feeling. still a pain in the ass though, especially when you need to swap something out.

one week back on twitter after 3 years off. 10 posts. barely any engagement. just getting reps in. feels like talking to an empty room but i've been here before.

this audio switcher is less than $20 and my reel about it is going crazy. one button press routes my computer audio to any of 4 different outputs. speakers, headphones, earbuds, whatever. this tech has existed forever and most people had no idea. amzn.to/49gRohU

being a creator is a loop of: "i don't want to film today" *films* "wait this is fun why don't i do this every day" "i don't want to edit" *edits* "why did i put this off for 3 days" it never gets old and i never learn.

same video. same edit. youtube shorts: 1.9k views tiktok: 597 views instagram reels: 45.5k views the algorithm on each platform is wildly different. reels is eating right now and the share count is nuts.

had an idea at lunch. printed it on my @BambuLabGlobal P2S by dinner. designed a mount in ChatGPT, printed it, and now my retractable charger lives under my desk. it's not perfect (needs to be 1/4" taller) but the fact that this workflow exists in 2026 is insane.

this projector folds into thirds and fits in the palm of my hand. under $300. the fact that this exists in 2026 is wild.

2018. dual ultrawides, no visible cables, and a @fathead on the wall before it was cool. say what you want but this setup was clean for the time.

i want to bring back pimp my setup. but content in 2026 is completely different than it was in 2016. figuring out what format actually makes sense and more importantly one i'll stick with. if you have thoughts i'm all ears.

spent $150 on a @GoveeOfficial ripple projector lamp and honestly it might be my favorite purchase this year. the whole room just hits different now.

haven't posted on here in almost 3 years. youtube slowed down, life happened, but i never stopped making stuff. back now. posting daily. if you're into setups, tech, and honest takes on gear, stick around.

my father-in-law just handed me a 2005 iPod. 60gb. still turns on. we had the peak of portable music and didn't even know it.

Have to clean it up a little but the #CarThing looks kewl with this stand

New swashin video where I put this at my new setup?
