STEP ⭐✨ NFC

finally happy to be here

trans deer please give me the big game energy for the big gaming I must do today amen

there's just something about a nice shiny solder point... flux and leaded solder my beloved

I love seeing other cartoon animals posting about electronics repair.. makes me feel all warm and fuzzy (well moreso than usual x3). like ohhh... that's my people 💛

today's fox fix is the first of three(!) pokemon go plus+ units, all sent to me for my auto-catch and brightness mods. these were actually all brand new, so I took care to open the box in a way that it could be resealed and opened as new again. some of my cleanest mod work if I do say so myself 🪛🦊✨

it's my birthday next week... I'm gonna be thiiiis big 🤏

really excited for the next furality

I should call her........ (iidx controller that has been sitting on my floor for like six months)

was reminded of this again; here is an old video demonstrating the rgb lighting I designed in the buttons and turntable. I love beatmania iidx... it's too cool...

I've had a number of people now ask me for tips on how to get started in repair, or tell me that they started trying to fix things because they saw me doing it, and every time it makes me so happy :3 it's such a rewarding and useful skill, and so uplifting to see people care to repair 🪛🦊💛

additional benefits of the hotglued vive tracker: makes for an excellent stand while I am part swapping to try and get the other quest 3 working :P

Why not rest here and cuddle your worries away with me for a while? I can assure you I’m nice and soft and filled with love! 🐶🧸❤️ Lovely plush Tibbs comm I got back from @trashy0te.bsky.social ! #furry #furryart #plushart #plushie

for reasons I cannot elaborate on it appears I have been banned from the cereal mascot wiki

scampering around a bit in #vrchat and talking to myself about how my recently repaired (and rooted) quest 3 might just be exactly what I have been wanting from vr 🦊🥽✨

my wires are so crossed from loving and cherishing my friends I just tried to heart react a message from an ebay buyer

the hotglued quest 2 vive tracker's legacy lives on..... permanent temporary solution of kings

it was a troubleshooting and part-swapping nightmare that required *multiple* full disassembly and reassemblies, but I finally have pieced together one functional and rooted quest 3. now time to get on vrchat and play with my friends 🦊🐾

while I was able to repair that quest 3 after I identified the camera issue, I noted the fan was spinning up like crazy just in the initial setup screen. I thought to check the factory thermal paste application, and... you kinda *really* aren't supposed to be able to see a third of the cpu lol

it should not be possible to bite your own damn tongue while eating... huge developer oversight

I've done my auto-catch and brightness mod on around 30 pokemon go plus +'s by now, but I just got my first request for modding as a service, instead of selling pre-modded units. this wags the tail ✨🦊✨

here's your controller bro

not a very happy fix fox today... my quest 3 arrived for repair, and while it should have been a simple firmware flash to fix an update bootloop, it turned into a full teardown to try to find a hardware fault, to no avail... no headset upgrade for me until I source a working motherboard

ough I miss her....... I want to get my face tracking setup working again once my quest 3 comes in and use this avatar more 🐱

found these old vrchat screenshots of plush step watching crunchy improper aspect ratio anime on the psp... just like the good ol days hehe

well, this thing is mine now after some back and forth with eBay (I did get my funds back!); now that I'm cleaning it up for repair and proper modding, I can confirm they did in fact use solder as a jumper wire for their auto-catch mod. Good Lord

feeling really fatigued today... need enrichment... need playtime....

swisching my big fluffy tail

a routine fox fix for today; this OLED switch had error 2101-0001 on boot, caused by USB port damage which also damaged the charging IC, and also the 5V USB output regulator (which I found later on). after replacing all three, the switch is booting, charging, and powering USB peripherals 🦊👍
