The EV VLOG

The EV VLOG is a video series about going electric. For many years I wanted to go electric, it wasn’t really for environmental reasons but for somehow I thought that it could be interesting to have a car I had to charge. Not having to visit the gas station, find the cheapest one, on the cheapest day, on the cheapest hour of the day(it was a thing, before 10am, on Mondays IIRC). Being able to just plug it in at home really appealed to me and also, since I have solar panels on my roof that produces more electricity thanContinue readingThe EV VLOG

Taking apart my precious NVIDIA RTX 3080 to water cool it

By Random Rud

So I am installing water cooling on my RTX 3080. I have only installed water cooling on my GPU 3 times in my life, in early 2000s, in 2018 and today so there are plenty of things that can go wrong since I don’t know what I am doing. This is the long version of the video. If this is more than you can handle, you can find a short version here: https://youtu.be/ubFfCQMpe9k Chapters: 00:00:00 Intro & Backstory. 00:05:00 Empty EKWB Loop for water 00:17:00 RTX 3080 Disassembly 00:43:15 Thermal Pads 00:51:00 Too much Thermal Paste? 00:54:00 Installing Water BlockContinue readingTaking apart my precious NVIDIA RTX 3080 to water cool it

Taking my NVIDIA 3080 apart to water cool it.

By Martin J

So it is time I get back to a fully water cooled pc and so even though it still is an expensive card in 2023, the equivalent of 900 USD here in Denmark, I decided to have a go since my old GTX 1080 also was watercooled.

Fallout 76

I have played Fallout for many years, not everything has been on YouTube. At the moment of writing, I am playing Fallout 76. Mostly in Co-Op mode with Josh from Florida. The time difference and the distance are an issue but we try to get it to work. Whenever we can find the time, we are playing and streaming here on my channel. In the beginning we had a lot of issues as we learned how to get it to work. Also the internet sometimes acts up, I am blaming the distance between Florida and Denmark.

Travel: Vlog Day 0 – Beginning my road trip

By Martin J

I travel to the other side of the planet by alone for a vacation and I am wondering if I get the car I rented. The whole point of the vacation is to go to the USA and drive a proper American car, but so far it doesn’t look good. I have rented at Corvette Stingray from Hertz in Las Vegas at McCarran Airport. I have a preference for American sports and muscle cars and I really liked the previous iteration of the Corvette that we also rented from Hertz. Starting in Las Vegas, Nevada, driving down to Tuscon, Arizona,Continue readingTravel: Vlog Day 0 – Beginning my road trip

Italian Twinkly lights in the spirit of Clark Griswold

By Martin J

I’m no Clark Griswold and until today, I had no Italian Twinkly lights. So I am unboxing, tinkering and installing these 175 WiFi enabled lights that can be used for any occasion really. The app can scan where the lights are located and then be controlled individually. I hope my christmas lights will spread some happiness in a dark and cold time of the year. 🙂 —— Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/ruddk Secondary channel : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKq_sn1DMx6jjYPnGtk2xJw Instagram: @martinRudJ Twitter: @wwwruddk Website: https://www.rud.dk/

Grand Isles, about the car in the water for 22 years

By Martin J

In this video I take a look at some rather interesting news. In Grand Isles, Florida. A car has been submerged in the water for 22 years, containing the remains of William Moldt who went missing in November 1997. But when you look at the Google Earth images and go back in time, it seems odd that no one noticed it during the construction of last houses, when people went out to look at the houses or perhaps when just peering out from their second floor windows

Incredible Jaffa Cakes and where to find them

By Martin J

I have been watching Cruising The Cut lately and so I am told that I should prepare some tea and eat a Jaffa Cake or perhaps a whole pack? The only thing is that you can’t buy Jaffa Cakes around here, although I believe I have tasted them at some point. But the internet can solve the problem, so I get some Jaffa Cakes shipped from the UK. Will it work, and what are Jaffa Cakes?

The best experience in years

By Martin J

Sometimes there are things you promise yourself you won’t do because it is a stupid thing to do and then you do it anyway. This is such one day where I did that. Now what? —- Ok so for those that can’t wait I can say that I purchased the Valve Index virtual reality headset so I can play games, exercise now when we can’t go to the fitness center anymore and I can try virtual reality again. It has been 35 years since I tried it last time in a arcade, where the experience was interesting and frustrating atContinue readingThe best experience in years

Made in America

By Martin J

Mostly Arizona and Sedona. Wine tasting, eating, biking and cruising. A few bits from other places in the end, but mostly Sedona / Village of Oak Creek which is the place I want to return to again. Many of these clips will be extended into their own videos later on. Those who know, can see we got a different car from Hertz than planned. Order this exact model, guess not. 🙂 At least it was a proper american V8 with the right sound. 🙂 Thanks to all the nice people and and Jeremy at Revolve Camera.

I suppose this video could also be called “A passing feeling of freedom” or something like that. 🙂 —— Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/ruddk Secondary channel : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKq_sn1DMx6jjYPnGtk2xJw Website: https://www.rud.dk/

The red wine from Page Springs Cellars

By Martin J

A long overdue video about the shipment of wine from Page Springs Cellars. Nothing better than getting more wine to enjoy. I bought 12 bottles of red wine from Page Springs Cellars and were awaiting their arrival. It had to be timed so it wasn’t too hot in Arizona and not too cold in Denmark when it was shipped in order to protect the wine. A nice present to myself from past me, but was it still a great wine? Check out this video to find out. 😀 Cheers. What I bought : 2* 2015 GMCs SKU: 2015039 $52.20 3*Continue readingThe red wine from Page Springs Cellars
