The detailed breakdown is appreciated.

That's great. Calm and informative hangover cure.

You just unlocked a memory, that show was perfect for it but I'd completely forgot the name. I can see the intro in my head, that little animation.

I used to use the narrator's voice from old "How It's Made" episodes to put me to sleep at night.

This guy firms.

Well, I'd say I understand enough to get by but I did also grow up building RC cars and later working on electronics/computers, so that definitely helped. That said, there's been more than a few times I had to break out a wiring diagram and consult with folks online because I was too scared to break something.

I can't wait to watch this having restored an early 90s Williams machine years back. Doubly so with it being a TC vid, his channel is excellent.

I wanted a machine in college but knew I'd have to understand and maintain it with so many moving parts, thus shelving the idea pretty quickly. Years later, I stumbled into an arcade abused cabinet with a decent playfield and had to have it. It was a challenging few months but a decade later it still works great and I've grown comfortable with crawling in there. Great forums like Pinside were also a tremendous help, I wouldn't have taken the gamble without the Internet.

Ask 100 random people on the street what regulatory capture is and you're not going to come close to half that do. Instead of "don't be surprised" how about we educate people or are least try to add to the discussion.

A firehose spewing ignorance has no time for facts or reading comprehension. That person has 800 posts and over 1,000 downvotes in just 40 days.

To be fair, it says he had done this 11 times before.

Still the best, can't believe it's been 20 years.
