What have you bought recently?


PS3 console, slim model.
3 x official sixaxis controllers.
3 x games, one is GTAV, then a football and a dance game [those wont get played :) ]

£35 all in
Pretty good deal eh

I always wanted an Smartwatch, but they all have short Battery Runtime and are a bit expensive and... too Mainstream:p. So I stumbled across the TI eZ430 Chronos Development Tool which is pretty nice: ~2Years Battery runtime and Costs 60€ New (Couldn't find anything on Ebay). However you need an special RF USB-Stick (Which also has an re-programmable Micro-controller on it) so lets see where i can fit that into the Pyra:). I plan to De-solder the USB Connector and put it somewhere behind the Screen and do the communication via I2C (via the LED-Driver Bus). But first lets implement an Calendar with PC Synchronization

2 fairly large Tekken prints, glossy printed onto hardboard.
They been in a local shop for a bit, but at £25 each it wasn't happening.
Happened to be in as they were marking them down to fivers each, managed to knock a bit more off that too as I was picking up a couple Master System games at the time.
Probably go up in my large storage room where I keep a lot of my old games and spare controllers and stuff

Late Night Bumps 1-4 by bsd.u. Lo-fi hip-hop.

I was gonna buy 3 tapes (only got 1 instead and it's still on its way from Cali), but when I saw this on eBay...bruh. Only the 2nd bid I've participated in, and I got into a bidding war with one other person. Easiest bid of my life; I was willing to pay top dollar for this vinyl. This would be the most expensive vinyl I've bought thus far, but Aether Lion ran my pockets for Live/Dead.

Still in the original shrink-wrap, and it may be in that shrink-wrap forever. The tracks are available for free streaming on his Bandcamp.
 
Dont have pix yet as im still await it to come to my lokation, but i bought me a Iphone 6s in 64 gb and in Silver..
I know Apple is Evil, but aktually i carry a Ipod Touch anyway, and my Note 2 as a Smartphone..
So why not combine Ipod and Smartphone??
This also brings the addition, that i only have to carry one device at running, as i could use the Iphone as a Mp3 Player due to its compability whit itunes and as a Phone if i got some incidence in the wood..
Jet i carry booth devices in a little backpack whit me, but whit iphone, i only need this device on a Arm Back and only need the backpack when its rainy..
 
I finally installed my TV this week-end.
I wanted to plug-in my computer's 5.1 speakers, but the connectors don't match, so I bought a audio converter.
I wanted to plug my Pandora, but I discovered my only male-male RCA cable was an audio one (with only 2 jacks) so I bought one with 3 jacks.
Then I wanted to plug my USB gamepad on my Pandora, but it didn't work. Looks like it didn't have enough power, so I bought a USB hub with an external power input.
 
An Everdrive GBA, , some sweets (Haribo, Maoam, Smarties) and some CDs:
Faun - Mitgard
Letzte Instanz- Liebe im Krieg
Eric Fish - Mahlstrom
And Feuerschwanz - Sex ist Muss :)
You see: mostly medievil volk...

Ah man, I had one of those a couple years back. Never got anything I worked on to compile properly. I was too noob for a rig that 1337. I wish you all the best, you should share your progress with us!

I just bought a USB Digital Logic probe! First one I've ever had. Looking forward to getting it and playing around!
 
Sunday I bought 4 capacitors.
Today I tore apart the control board for my washing machine, replaced the bulging caps that are known to cause problems, and just successfully completed a rinse cycle.
I saved about $300.

I did the same with my "broken" 24 port 10/100 Ethernet switch, just happened to have the right Caps on hand. But that was after getting money from my roommate for half of the new Gigabit Switch. Now my old switch is handling all my 10/100 only devices.

An Everdrive GBA,

Would you be willing to do a mini-review? I have 2 other GBA flash carts, but both are even outdated in my eyes (one requires some old windows only software and the other uses mini SD). I would also eventually like to get a GB Everdrive.

Pics and stuff when it arrives, please. :D
 
bought a new on/off button for the dishwasher (the old one looks kind of burned and has to be toggled with a toothpick, ugh) and a new cutlery basket (the old one has more holes than the manufacturer intended).
... oh, and also Zero Time Dilemma because i need something to play while i wait for the dishes to get clean :D
 
After i figured out where to put the GBASYS Folder, it was easy to get the Everdrive GBA to run..
No Rom Patching like on another GBA Flash Card
Just put your roms in, and they should work..

Only the NES Classics ditnt work as well "A Link to the Past "
But thats a known Issue..

It works whit every Device whit GBA Slot: GBA GBA SP, GB Micro, DS and DS Light, and the Revo GBA..
Also the Random Rom and the Real Time Clock Feature are pretty cool
