(watching this episode again and it's like... come on paramount plus, give the people what they want, give the people what they NEED)

jeez i would watch the hell out of a show about klingon lawyers

I bought two gameboy colors (gameboys color?) from j4u to fix up and mod. the one on the left was sold as "needs repair" but worked fine, especially after I cleaned the button contacts. the one on the right was sold as "doesn't work" and has... let's say *extensive* corrosion damage. the pics show what it looked like after my attempt to deal with the corrosion and removing the negative battery terminal (which didn't even have continuity from front to back)

surprisingly, the screen of the corroded unit works perfectly fine. I think the board itself can be saved if I track down and patch all of the corroded traces... right now I don't even get continuity from ground to the power switch 😬 definitely a challenging fix (wayyy more complicated than anything I've tried before) but could be fun to try! at worst I have a broken unit that I can scavenge parts from later

@jonbro my reasoning is: people should know that the fediverse consists of trans women tooting about cat noises

@jonbro yep I did (for better or worse)
