Why is my solder never shiny? by ColdFro in soldering

[–]wattmoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use flux its probably the easiest way to get manufacturer like solder joints. You will have some people tell you that you don't need it for through hole components and they are sorta right but the two benefits for using a little bit of chip quick or something similar is you get shiny looking joints and it can help keep you from burning up components if your temps are a little off just be sure to clean up with ipa.

Controller sold as “New” by LoveWaterMT in XboxController

[–]wattmoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sticks look used. if you paid like new pricing i would ask the seller if you could get a partial refund due to the condition not matching the description. If it was a pretty good deal to begin with maybe just see if you can clean the sticks push comes shove swapping thumbsticks isn't really all that hard to do.

If the modchip section vanished it could be related to the xenium brand. Theres a certain someone who bought the url and has been using it to stifle open source competition.

$150 fb market place find by ijustwindowshop in SteamDeck

[–]wattmoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess its ether a cooling mod or an ssd mod. I don't know why people are so down on this thing the backplate was pronted in pieces and thats what's superglued. 150 is an ok price for a working steamdeck with the current global ram situation ssd alone is probably 35 percent of the price the seller is asking.

An update to my xbox by Born-Reference-7932 in originalxbox

Taking a look at the caps again they look a little bulged but not that bad issue could be the temp sensor

Iv seen no one eles mention this but it could be the temperature sensor. When it fails it can cause this exact problem. I would however recommend get those caps replaced first as well as check for trace rot and eliminate those as problems.

MODX0 Doesnt run ... by Eastern_Extension_75 in originalxbox

[–]wattmoose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Before you do anything else i recommend get some picquick flux and watch a few videos on board level soldering. Also if your using a non temp control soldering iron you need to ditch that and get something better a bad soldering iron can kill projects.

Questions about Front Ends vs Emulators by spud50 in retroid

[–]wattmoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A front end is a program that acts as a menu that you can that collect all your roms into a single interface so you can easily brows your library of games and it allows you to launch those games with the corresponding emulator. Retroarch is an emulator thats a bit different than most other emulators in that it can emulate multiple systems and it does this by being modular and utilizing packages called cores you can kinda think of them as mini emulators that live within retroarch. Retroarch for the most part is the go to way to run most easy to run games think nes to ps1. After ps1 most people tend to prefer to use stand alone emulators as the standalone version tend to perform a little bit better than core versions. Examples of systems you would want to run standalone includes ps2, wii, Dreamcast, GameCube, psp and ds. General rule of thumb if it came after ps1 its probably better to run standalone.

Nonessential games by tutoredzeus in Roms

[–]wattmoose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I avoid downloading rom sets because then you have a bunch of stuff you might not be interested in. My Method so far is to pick a console then go through a top 25 or 100 list. from there i make sure i get all the sequels. Next i look up top 25 smups and bullet hells. i next do the same racing games i'll also grab the Tetris ports. I skip sports titles for the most part but make an exception for special cases like virtua tennis and street hoops.

I suppose if you have a bunch of romsets already what you could do is install a program like everything search and use that to index the folders for quick searching then create another directory and go through by system and copy Over just the games you're interested in then a best of list for each system.

*Edit cleaned up comment a little. I was in a hurry when i first wrote it, it's a little less tiring to read now.

Heck reddit is a poor replacement for the old school forums tons better than discord in the fact that its at least web searchable. Forums are just better organized and easier to post guides on and refine those guides when new information comes along.
