I also have strong opinions about Christmas lights.

Unfortunately, they do not perfectly align with Technology Connections. We agree is almost all respects: flickering is bad, purple is not a valid Christmas color, white lights should be warm and not bluish. I just can’t agree about this one thing though, I LOVE the super saturated colors of LEDs for the red, blue, and green lights. I care much less about the saturation of the yellow and/or orange lights.

I agree with you, but my excuse is being in the southern hemisphere where Christmas lights must compete with summer evenings. The bold colours do better at early twilight

Indoors though I like the less saturated colours, and lack of options has had my tree lit with warm white only for the last decade - I get colour only where the white light plays off transparent and reflective baubles (decorations, I think they’re called in America) and tinsel

Or even worse, six hours of video making LED christmas lights look like the incandescent light from 30 years ago.

At least that particular quest is finally at an end

The series about the RCA video disc player thing is WILD. That they made that fucking thing work at all is a testament to what can be accomplished if you throw a huge sum of money and enough smart people at a problem .

The subjects are interesting, the script is tight and packed with insight, and he uses the magic of buying two of them

The most annoying thing for me is that i can’t find any powder detergent where I live which worked best in his videos, and the compartment is so poorly designed that i frequently find half the detergent pod still in the compartment after the dishes are done.
