I approve. 
Slightly tangential, the PET 2001 screen codes table (at about 30:00) is from my blog post on PETSCII, an exported image from my online emulator (based on original code by Tom Skibo). I’m rather shocked how realistic this looks in the video. I hadn’t noticed, if I hadn’t written the program to ouput the table myself. Now, I’m always concerned with conveying the specific media quality with any emulations, because I deem this quite important. On the other hand, I also try to leave some hints on this being not an authentic image, not the real stuff. However, here, we have a total colission of real and fake (compare the still of real, glitching PET just before this). – Any opinons on whether this is evil or not are welcome.
