what did I get myself into?
I was not expecting to jailbreak an iPad with Linux, but here it is. First time "hacking" something with linux too.

Haven't done speedcubing in a while, so I decided to get some new stuff. Dear god, I spent way too much.

After three fucking days trying to make an account with apple, they finally fixed it. And now I have a jailbreak iPhone. Needs a battery replacement, but i always wanted to try some form of phone repair. Got this phone for free anyways.

Man I hate dealing with apple support so much. I got an iPhone 7 plus with a bad battery because I never done phone repairs or mods before. However, I need to make an apple account for the first time in order to jailbreak it. Two days and two technicians later, I have to wait 24 hours. FUCK THIS.

Dont you just love it when you overcomplicate on how to fix something. The red channel was missing in this sega genesis model 2 va3 and it turn out it was being shorted to ground. I found this out after replacing the rgb encoder. Thank god it wasnt expensive.

" oh boy I cant wait to reshell these rough up joycons for new soft shell ones" then proceeds to accidently rip the r button from the joycon. trace repair ain't fun when you don't have the right stuff.

Finally finished a new 3ds xl capture card mod from loopy. It only cost me a power board. Ripping a ribbon cable, and my sanity. You're better off sending your 3ds to loopy instead of doing it yourself.

Finished an atari 2600 today. Installed a uav board and a tiadigitzer. Had more trouble with the uav than with the digitizer.

Finally finished my retor gem install in my gamecube. Honestly, the most fun I had soldering for any gem kit.

Upgrading my gamecube from the gcdual to the retro gem. Dear god, that qsb was awful to remove.

finally was able to do a picofly modchip in a oled. this was very difficult. although, the software took longer to setup than soldering all those flex cables.

Recapping and xbox 360 is just as frustrating as Recapping a og xbox.

Finally did a ps2 retro gem install. Took me months and 3 flex cables to finally get it working. Also added a pcifix i had lying around. Sorry for no close up of my soldering work, got very frustrated doing this mod.
