I successfully fixed my friends Pokémon Gold version which had 2 damaged traces and 1 via.
This was my first time doing any real pcb trace repair and it was harder than I expected.
grain of rice for scale in the first 2 pcb pictures.
just gatta clean em up a bit and get some new solder mask.

today was my first time soldering super small SMD parts. It wasn't too hard, but this was a very simple prototype board, and I assume when they get a lot more closely packed, it will get trickier.

Once I finish this last semester and get my degree, I'm planning to build one of these this summer.
Friends who are good woodworkers have gotten me into building cedar strip canoes and kayaks. Right now I am building a 12.5 foot Wee Lassie for my spouse. Alaskan Yellow Cedar, Western Red Cedar for the hull. I will put on Walnut gunwales and African Mahogany decks. It should be about 26 lbs.

after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

a whole lot of assholes are going to rediscover that the systems they're dismantling were placed there as a compromise that mostly kept people from rolling up the social contract and beating them to death with it.
