There is not, because none of it was scripted and any semblance of narrative flow was crudely faked in editing. But it's a reasonable request. I'll try pushing the audio through Whisper and see what comes out. Google will, eventually, do it's own speech recognition but historically it hates my accent.
Adding Whisper subtitles was really easy and they're dramatically better than the automatic Google ones (I did it via https://github.com/abdeladim-s/subsai, which was trivial to use). So there is now a reasonably good transcript available in the video comments.
What Charlie said!
Here's a bit of info about the hardware:

And here's a little tech info about it:

I don't remember a good transcription tool, but if you want to play with APIs, IBM had a Watson-branded one that could do it. We used it at Workday and it worked so well we discovered (the hard way, of course) we needed to check transcripts for curse words.
Disclaimer: I made this.
The word you want is "disclosure" not "disclaimer". You are in good company though, this is a common mistake.
disclaimer /dĭs-klā′mər/ noun A repudiation or denial of responsibility or connection.
disclosure /dĭ-sklō′zhər/ noun The act or process of revealing or uncovering.
disclaimer /dĭs-klā′mər/ noun A repudiation or denial of responsibility or connection.
disclosure /dĭ-sklō′zhər/ noun The act or process of revealing or uncovering.
This is a weird nostalgic blast from the past for me. A teacher of mine in high school had a cart of these for his English composition classes, and I never got a chance to dig into what was actually inside one.
Lovely stuff, I haven't seen one of this series for a few years, look forward to watching this later.
I really enjoyed the video and previously one where CP/M was ported to the Amstrad NC200, another Z80 based portable word processor type device.
I love watching his videos. 3 hours of tech-poking and coding, it's so calming :)
Huh. Fascinating. That's the precise opposite of my reaction to such things, which is more like:
"You want me to waste hours of watching someone when it could be boiled down to 1000w of text I could read in 30sec and a 2min video demo?!"
I am not saying you are in any way wrong! I am merely fascinated that two people who are interested in this sort of very niche thing could have such different reactions.

I guess the difference is how we are watching things.
You are probably looking for an answer to a certain question. Or want something that you can rebuild at home. Or want to consciously spend the next hour actually extracting valuable information (or enjoyment) from a video.
But here I meant it more like: When I get home from work, I can start up my PC, open YouTube and start watching Hjalfi's new video, while simultaneously going about my usual routine of reading/answering mail, doing some coding, playing a game, etc., all while watching the video on a second display.
i.e. for me it's more like streaming music in the background, except it also has video. Of course you probably can't do things that require you to be super focussed (and in those cases, I actually pause the video), but in all other cases (casual gaming, coding things like Advent of Code, etc.) it's pretty nice.

I used to unconditionally hate videos, especially tech videos, for exactly this reason. Later I realized that these videos are made for a completely different audience - most of them are meant to be watched while sitting on a sofa with some coffee or popcorn on a Sunday evening, rather than technical communication. It's great that you can coincidentally learn something while watching it, but it's primarily infotainment. Meanwhile, clicking Hacker News or Reddit links is the modern equivalent of reading newspapers and magazines, with an audience who demands more efficient communication.
Ironically enough, I agree. I loathe trying to get information out of videos. To pick an example _completely at random_: trying to get information on how to do video editing stuff with DaVinci Resolve invariably leads to a video, which is guaranteed to increase my blood pressure at a time when I'm already annoyed.
Right. Tech videos can be a source of infotainment, but video-only documentation and tutorials are just a waste of time.
(For those of us who hate video and can't absorb information that way.)
