Re: Short-Circuited XBox360 Controller

I can't see anything in particular wrong with that board from the photos. You can try cleaning the board thoroughly with some isopropyl alcohol and a qtip but besides that there isn't much else you can do. I can't find any schematics for the board. And if it's not something simple like a capacitor, ...

Re: What is the best Windows version ever?

I recommend you watching this video and then reevaluating your opinion. That video hasn't really changed any of my opinions of Windows XP. One of the first things they do is criticise the Luna theme then proceeded to praise one of the beta themes which is basically just glorified windows 2000. It i...

Re: What is the best Windows version ever?

Windows 95 and 98 generally feel like a mess overall. The stability issues made the OS;s feel like a mess in comparison to modern systems who can mostly handle most types of hardware and hardware changes seamlessly. Windows 2000 probably shouldn't be included since that OS wasn't really dedicated to...

Thought it was Bonzi buddy but it also sounds similar to the voice of the Carmen Winstead/aauuughh meme.

Re: I bought 9 PS3 controllers for $40... how bad could they be?

I've also seen some eBay listings that advertise it as a 4 pin but in the photos it's only the 3 pin which makes me wonder if you can fit a 3 pin joystick to a 4 pin controller. Would it be possible to solder one or do the pins not even align properly? Maybe it can be modified to fit. Does the cont...

Re: I bought 3 PS3s for $50... how bad could it be?

Oh yeah, I am aware US houses do actually receive 240V and you can have sockets installed for it for stuff like EV charging and heating, though I live in a rental apartment so I'm not sure if I can take advantage of that? According to that video US apartments receive 3 phase power rather than 2 pha...

Re: I bought 3 PS3s for $50... how bad could it be?

Also that slim PS3 was one of the few consoles in my collection that I didn't take with me when I moved countries. Firstly, because it was really my dad's more than mine, and secondly, because it was locked to 240V, so I wouldn't have even been able to use it without a step-up transformer or power ...

Re: I bought 3 PS3s for $50... how bad could it be?

Fun fact. The NEC Tokin isn't actually that common of a fault in the PS3. People often missatribute, without any kind of diagnostics from the SYSCON that the caps are at fault and need replacing, and after they replace it their console will work, but only temporarily. After which the console will br...

Re: What OS are you maining?

Red Star OS /j

Binbows 10 all around. I'll hold onto it until Michaelsoft drops support. There hasn't been any other OS that I'm compelled to switch to.
