hey the woman in the vid sounded happy this week!!!!

i still think you should stop her smoking, that shit will kill you

Getting there, the lighting needs to be better but keep it up man. Its getting better every week.! The background and graphics looks way better!!

Prima.Vera · Oct 19, 2015

Any reviews from TPU for the new ASUS ROG Notebooks ?

MilkyWay · Oct 19, 2015

Actually i think this is worse, the other background looked more professional this looks like a bedroom wall lmao. Though i think the actual content is pretty good as it is.

Someone give Zithe a TPU polo or t shirt to wear during the videos.

buildzoid · Oct 19, 2015

you need to get head on lighting. The light from both side leaves the center of your face too dark. As for the background. A big fabric TechPowerUp! banner would probably be the best.

I always thought he looked like a young Agent Smith staring at us like if we were Mr. Anderson in that.

Any hoot. Aside from the stand-up-esk delivery its getting better. Although all his movements had me on the edge of my seat anticipating him to burst into a dance routine.

TheLaughingMan · Oct 20, 2015

Yep. That is exactly what I thought he looked like.

Prima.Vera · Oct 20, 2015

Is this a thread about how the video looks like, or about the actual content of the video??

Steevo · Oct 20, 2015

Verry nice.

darkangel0504 · Oct 20, 2015

Nice

New shirt is great (definitely my style), and new backdrop is great, just need work doing to the center light. After talking with w1z last night about lighting, he recommended the IKEA kvart, a good budget choice (one I intend to try soon). Either that or a slighlty overpriced Diva Ring light.

I am more for reading selected stuff my way, not every piece of the same same same news that reaches us from 100 angles and channels. I started to watch but canceled as it was rather generic talk, so what does this add? My 5c of feedback for free.

The Kvart looks awesome! W1zzard shared it with me as well. I can't easily get them in the states but I'm sure I'll find something like them.

My day just isn't right without my pack of lucky strikes. My womanly figure be damned.

They have a 120 cm tall version of that in Germany, which would be better

zithe · Oct 20, 2015

It says I cant buy them online, either. There are a few one ebay though. I'll keep an eye on them.

dalekdukesboy · Oct 25, 2015

WTF? Why are you weirdos even commenting on how good he looks or about his friggon shirt etc, it's a video to a mostly male audience I THINK about computing devices....maybe I missed it?
