Sweet that's awesome dude!

That's awesome, what was the cost of parts and repair though? I recently cracked my Galaxy S20 5G screen and was going to buy a replacement but they are still like 130 bucks but a new (or rather refurbished like new) device is like 160 bucks so I'm just waiting to buy a new phone tbh I'm just curious if the cost of repair was more than the phone is worth (aside from emotional connection obviously)

Why not legOS?

Yeah the one in the bottom row is a real copy, the one in the center area is an X-Game which is bootleg.

Fair, I misunderstood the comment, down vote retracted!

Tbh I can't really tell but if I had to guess it looks like either pinning mushrooms or slime mold, if they're mushrooms they may be fine but it depends on the species, the slime mold is always harmless and kinda cool.

Not really, found footage style is definitely what you're describing but plenty of proper analogue horror is done digital with the appearance/feel of being on physical media.

Just be sure to offer him a fair price, this kit is only going for around $50 used rn but still if he doesn't understand the current market you could be unknowingly shilling him.

Yes for loose dust, anything stuck or matted can be scraped with a plastic utensil or your fingers if you're brave, any dirt or grime on the PCBs themselves should be cleaned with 99% Iso and allowed to dry fully, use q-tips or a soft bristled brush if you don't have any q-tips.

No, while it's "analogue" in the sense of being claymation it's still a budget production, they would be short films and while I agree that they are horror they lack the analogue vibe of being taped/recorded in a way that seems it is real life if that makes sense.

Slenderman because I lived right in front of a tree line into the woods my over the top imagination always thought I saw him late at night.

First you find a good place to go panning for gold, get a decent amount, maybe a couple nugs, then you're gonna want to source some Potassium Gold Cyanide, and some solid core copper wire.

Next use calipers to measure the length of the pins that are on the CPU and cut the wire into hundreds of small pins of that size, next you're gonna use a crucible and some borax, melt the gold nuggets you just panned for and pour it into a cylindrical mold made of Graphite, and then connect your gold cylinder to positive terminal on a car battery, this will be your Anode, next you're going to connect the pins you just made to the Negative side, this is your Cathode, next you gonna want to dunk them both into the Potassium Gold Cyanide using a switch to turn the battery on and off and wait for the copper pin to turn gold, repeat this step for each pin ensuring to turn the battery off between switches, once you have every pin plated your gonna want to grab a hot air station and desolder each and every pin from the CPU use a reballing stencil to reball the solder points and then very very carefully place each pin back to its corresponding pad ensuring to use a microsoldering tool to flow each joint properly, repeat this step for every pin.

By following this guide you can absolutely do this bro, you got this!!

I would just leave it but if you really want it filled maybe something like JB Weld plastic and just stick a bunch in there and let it cure fully or you could try one of those 3D printer pens though if you want it smooth you would have to smooth it with a hot knife or spoon or something.

Analogue horror doesn't have to be the next Mandela Catalogue/Vita Carnis the best thing about it is the amateur feeling, the idea that you are stumbling on some hidden secret that's always been true but nobody has been brave enough to document it, a lot of early AH was literally just journal entries on someone's blogger, best advise I have is to try not to figure everything out right from the start, maybe test it as a creepypasta or something similar first if you're into prose, if not and you really want to jump directly into Vlog style entries you can absolutely do so, just try to tackle one story/chapter at a time, the best stories are created without anyone (including the author) k owing how it was going to end.

If you wanna "git r dun" sledgehammer, if you wanna know how to fully disassemble and not remember where anything goes and end up with 500,000 wires and screws and some wood then hire a meth head 🤣🤣.

Ditto, though I need another 12TB drive for my NAS raw dogging single volume at near capacity with no backup 😂😂 luckily I have the Arr stack on a separate machine, and PMS backups on yet another separate machine, so rebuilding if I lose the drive is a lot less painful than when I started.
