    3DS Paintjob help!

    Remove all the plastic parts you wish to paint from the DS. Sand the parts where paint will go with fine sand paper (at least 200 grit, preferably 400 or 600) until you've removed about as much material as the thickness of a couple layers of spray paint. Finish the sanding by wet-sanding (soak...

    A question about the game boy advance battery charge led lig

    Re: A question about the game boy advance battery charge led A low battery indicator circuit is based on two major principals of electronics: battery voltage discharge curves and transistor switching. Firstly, we normally think of batteries as having a steady voltage, i.e. a Li-ion has 3.7V...

    webPC - iMac G3 Modernization

    Is this true? Man, I have at one at my parents' house that's destined to become a storage ottoman, whenever I remember to pick it up. I also have two of the original G4s (though one is a mini-kegerator now), a G4 Quicksilver, and one of the sweet aluminium body G5 towers. Pro tip: if you ever...

    DPDT Switch

    That switch has a pretty standard DPDT pinout (according to one commenter, who helpfully listed the pinout), so it should work fine. However, be mindful that the top "ON" will be ON and both the middle "OFF" and the bottom "ON" will actually be OFF. So you might not want to use the label that...

    The afternoon projects thread

    *** As seen in background of July 1 livestream! *** My project work area had gotten a little cluttered, and I love cube storage. However it was stupid to put cubes under the table... I wanted them flush with the table for ease of access, plus I wanted to store my extra kegs and carboys under (I...

    New 360 Hardware

    This has been my single most burning question since it was announced. I've seen reports of everything from 115 - 130W... why does nobody doing teardowns or unboxings think to look at the power brick sticker? ARGH UPDATE: According to Xbox.com official documentation: The Xbox 360 E console uses...

    Pre-E3 podcast featuring Tchay, Beta, and big Kevin

    Replayability feature: turn on auto closed captions. Nothing is right and all of it is hilarious. "Do it now in half podcasts and there's so much of the explosion" "Okay moving on Saturday... alone" KEVIN: "Carpeting something most of the time." TCHAY: "They are the sole use of his forearm...

    New 360 Hardware

    iFixit has a teardown now. Looks like basically the 360 S in new makeup. Couple of the daughterboards have moved around (RF is separate from ring of light, finally), but more or less the same beast.

    Tchay's theory about Nintendo's "new direction"

    PREFACE: I apologize for excessive use of "quote terms" below, but I wanted to make it obvious I'm using "marketing terms" and not "flaxting all over Nintendo". I agree with KB. Nintendo's got much more of a market with the youngin's. WiiU clearly isn't a console to compete with XB One and PS4-...

    E3 2013

    I can't wait for this weekend, when I will (hopefully) finally have time to sit down and watch all the keynotes and stuff. I miss you, gaming. But I have to be an adult right now.

    Buyers Policy Discussion

    Hi there, hopefully I can clear some things up. It sounds a little bit like you think Tchay is trying to abuse his moderator powers or something, which I can guarantee is not the case. First, you need to understand how us staff members "govern". We have our little private staff-only forum where...

    New 360 Hardware

    All the details they're giving right now are "smaller and quieter and available today". (Nobody seems to have it available yet though, so I don't know what their definition of "today" is.) Judging by the size of the disc tray though, looks like an inch or two off the length of the S, and maybe...

    New 360 Hardware

    Why are they updating the 360 hardware so close to the Xbox ONE launch? And why do I want one so bad? Dang, new 360, you fine. Discuss.
