[2026-05-10T06:56:22Z] <kris_> dery: i have a dead dead permafucked ps3 i can get a resistor from and this is the only damage so not all hope is lost
[2026-05-10T06:56:28Z] <kris_> it comes down to my soldering skills now
[2026-05-10T13:19:57Z] <dery> les goo kris_ 
[2026-05-10T13:20:42Z] <dery> hopefully the pads aren't gone but i think you can just scrape the solder mask and solder to the traces with some magnet wire
[2026-05-10T13:20:48Z] <dery> or maybe a chonky resistor
[2026-05-10T13:21:01Z] <kris_> the pads are fine
[2026-05-10T13:21:02Z] <kris_> seemingly
[2026-05-10T13:21:03Z] <dery> you can look at the value from the dead one or maybe some schematics
[2026-05-10T13:21:06Z] <kris_> like the solder under the resistor is still there
[2026-05-10T13:21:11Z] <dery> phew
[2026-05-10T13:21:12Z] <kris_> so i think the resistor just popped off the solder
[2026-05-10T13:21:19Z] <kris_> so in theory i can just transplant a resistor and revive it
[2026-05-10T13:21:26Z] <dery> let's pray
[2026-05-10T13:21:33Z] <kris_> the porn ps3 isnt in good condition either
[2026-05-10T13:21:42Z] <kris_> now i understand that probably warrants an explanation
[2026-05-10T13:21:43Z] <dery> the w h a t
[2026-05-10T13:22:10Z] <dery> man i'm really happy to see my experience fucking shit up helping other people
[2026-05-10T13:22:15Z] <kris_> i bought a ps3 slim on ebay like a full year ago and boot this thing up to find that it's already been modded and is full of pirated games and all kinds of stuff, including this dudes message history and everything
[2026-05-10T13:22:28Z] <kris_> i go over to the videos and see 2 there and im like oh did he leave instructions for rebug firmware or something
[2026-05-10T13:22:30Z] <kris_> click on it
[2026-05-10T13:22:32Z] <kris_> >immediate fucktape
[2026-05-10T13:22:35Z] <kris_> in 240p
[2026-05-10T13:22:43Z] <dery> HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
[2026-05-10T13:22:55Z] <dery> i love the used market
[2026-05-10T13:23:01Z] <kris_> it was some weird shit too
[2026-05-10T13:23:14Z] <dery> this is so emblematic of the experience
[2026-05-10T13:23:18Z] <kris_> anyway 
[2026-05-10T13:23:28Z] <kris_> yesterday i reformat this thing and put official firmware on it with the intention of CFWing it
[2026-05-10T13:23:38Z] <kris_> go to log into psn and it's fucking permanently banned from the playstation network
[2026-05-10T13:23:42Z] <kris_> probably from cheating on call of duty
[2026-05-10T13:23:42Z] <dery> bruh
[2026-05-10T13:23:49Z] <kris_> in addition
[2026-05-10T13:23:58Z] <kris_> i took this thing apart and it was **covered** in and out with cigarette residue
[2026-05-10T13:24:07Z] <kris_> so i took this piece of shit out in the back yard and hosed it out with my water hose
[2026-05-10T13:24:10Z] <dery> this is really the quintessential used ps3
[2026-05-10T13:24:19Z] <dery> the most used ps3 ever
[2026-05-10T13:24:39Z] <kris_> it's now just sitting in the corner of my room, i dont really have much use for it as an actual console given i cant log into psn
[2026-05-10T13:24:50Z] <kris_> unless i spoof the console ID with another genuine ps3s ID but i dont trust that with my main psn
[2026-05-10T13:24:51Z] <dery> oh, why do you need psn?
[2026-05-10T13:24:55Z] <kris_> online cod
[2026-05-10T13:24:58Z] <kris_> only games i care to play really
[2026-05-10T13:25:00Z] <dery> is it still working????
[2026-05-10T13:25:03Z] <kris_> yeah?
[2026-05-10T13:25:06Z] <kris_> it's active as fuck dude
[2026-05-10T13:25:10Z] <dery> in the year of the lord 2026????
[2026-05-10T13:25:15Z] <dery> wtf
[2026-05-10T13:25:19Z] <dery> sony????
[2026-05-10T13:25:44Z] <dery> what's up with that generation of consoles
[2026-05-10T13:25:46Z] <kris_> it can still run freebsd so
[2026-05-10T13:25:53Z] <kris_> i guess its not totally devoid of tomfoolery
[2026-05-10T13:26:20Z] <kris_> if i can fix the ps3 that i broke then im gonna set up a ps3 compute cluster
[2026-05-10T13:26:30Z] <kris_> two ps3s on freebsd working together to run a minecraft server or some shit 
[2026-05-10T13:26:36Z] <kris_> which will no doubt make it perform *worse* than just running it on 1
[2026-05-10T13:31:22Z] <dery> lmao
[2026-05-10T13:32:15Z] <kris_> my father soon: why the FUCK is the energy bill so high wtf are you doing up there
[2026-05-10T13:32:22Z] <kris_> me: compiling gentoo on 4 ps3s 
[2026-05-10T13:33:49Z] <kris_> nah he's super into this shit
[2026-05-10T13:34:12Z] <kris_> not into it himself but into enabling me doing random nonsense, at the new house apparently i'm getting four 4x4 socket outlets in my room, a separate 20 amp breaker per 2 outlets
[2026-05-10T13:34:17Z] <kris_> per 2 sockets*
[2026-05-10T18:20:07Z] <dery> updating my weird gateway server thing with the weird setup. 
[2026-05-10T18:20:12Z] <dery> whis me luck
[2026-05-10T18:20:15Z] <dery> whish
[2026-05-10T18:33:42Z] <kris_> gl
[2026-05-10T23:02:47Z] <stilic> hey everyone! i finally slimmed down and simplified my leanix bootstrap thing https://codeberg.org/leanix/bootstrap-repo/releases/tag/26.05.10
[2026-05-10T23:03:33Z] <stilic> you can now enjoy a somewhat guided kiss linux experience that's also more trustworthy in some way (depends on how you see it ofc)
[2026-05-10T23:06:04Z] <stilic> btw the "guided" part is handled by this repo which contains more complex packages but should help in getting a more standard linux desktop from kiss https://codeberg.org/leanix/repo
