    Dragonflare got a reaction from Soul in No more unboxings in Linus Tech Tips in 2014?   
    I would honestly be alright with whatever you choose.
     
    There are obvious benefits for you guys if you remove unboxings:
    - More work time to focus on other content
    - Less money and time going toward getting products early
    - Less stress trying to crank out dozens of videos in a day
     
    If removing unboxings from the LTT catalog seems like a good idea, then go for it, you have the numbers and knowledge to make that decision.
     
    From my end, I just like to see LMG content, even if it isn't daily. The production quality has skyrocketed over this past year, and if you want to focus more on news, reviews, benchmarks, and more technical videos, I welcome your paradigm shift.

    Dragonflare got a reaction from Brianbrain in Gaming survey for a research paper   
    I hope this isn't going to be a bad place for this, but I have a research paper that I am writing on the correlation between video games, aggression, anxiety, and relaxation.
     
    I would really appreciate it if you guys would take this quick 10 question survey. Please answer as truthfully as possible, as I need the best data possible, and can't actually perform a long term study with sophisticated instruments.
     
    You can discuss the topic itself in the forum, which might be good to read through longer stories and responses, but please don't get too heated. This isn't a "guns are bad, games are bad" topic. It has more to do with how all media (mostly interactive games) affects our emotions through immersive story-telling and images, and how in some cases (such as horror, or extremely violent games) feelings of anxiety or aggression can last for a few hours, sometimes days, or even longer term in some individuals.

    I've seen this type of thread on nearly every programming forum I've been on, so I figured it would be time to start up our own WAYWO.
     
    Feel free to post anything about any projects you are working on, including pictures, video, snippets, or what have you!
     
     
    I'm currently working on a few projects but only have this one that I can really show off:
     
    I decided to hack an old NES controller for use over USB using an arduino. Yes I know that I have a big old board hanging off the back, but this is for prototyping, I can always pull the IC off and mount it in the controller itself.
     
    Here is a quick video with my obnoxious voice giving you all a rundown  :lol:
     
     
    http://youtu.be/EC6Y3m41FIg
     
     
    If you don't have the time to watch the quick video, I made a simple controller class that has methods for handling the clock and strobe of the controller, as well as a method that returns a byte that holds the button information (only 8 buttons total, convenient!). I have defines for each of the buttons that I use in the loop function inside a series of 8 if statements that handles printing the button that is currently pressed. This is only temporary, as I need a way to check for multiple button presses. But alas, I am tired and will work on it tomorrow.
     
     
    Again, feel free to post your own projects, or comment on other users projects and posts!  :)

    This seems like an interesting idea that could bring more traffic to this subforum since it's popularity isn't as high as the other boards.
    I say go for it if it is something you really want to do, I know I would be willing to help create video tutorials that go over some of the concepts behind programming and computer science. As well as contribute to group projects and brainstorming. I'm not a mobile developer, but I know my way around android and Linux and could help submit detailed bug reports for apps.
