Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

Looks pretty interesting, was it a pain to set up?
Nah, with a vcr get hdmi out, either upscale or a fancy vcr with hdmi, plug it into the capture card. Then just use the capture card as a media source in obs and record.
The big pain is having to be around for the end of ths video (if you dont want to have to trim the video file that is)
