Griffin has previously done virtual “garage sales” like this in June 2014 (literally from his garage), February 2018 and November 2018 (as a live broadcast).

In response to audience-submitted questions:

  • To rip video files from a DVD, Nick recommends MakeMKV (for Mac, $50) or Handbrake (for Mac/PC/Linux, free). And for transcoding smaller, more efficient versions of Blu-Ray rips, Nick likes Don Melton’s other_video_transcoding.

  • Mike Monteiro begins his presentation F*ck You, Pay Me with this question—“Who here has at some time had trouble getting paid by a client, for work they were doing?”
