Grabbed a few other things other than meat...

A Logitech G915 keyboard.
A Logitech G Pro mouse.
A Guitar Hero Live PS3/Wii U USB and guitar, had a hankering to play some Clone Hero and couldn't find any of my USB ones.

Decided it was time to finally get rid of all my wired PC accessories at this point, I quite like Logitech's Lightspeed dongles that I use at work so figured if it's good enough for there it's good enough for home.

Got myself a small Schiit stack.

I wanted a hardware equalizer for my PC but my Schiit Fulla 2 wasn't compatible with any (since it's a DAC and AMP all in one and you want the EQ between those two), so I had to split it up into 3 parts. Heavily discounted Modi 3E as DAC at the bottom, Loki Mini+ for the EQ at the top, and a Magni Unity amp sandwiched between both.

Seems to work pretty well so far.

Also got that digital microscope @impeeza recommended, and a desoldering gun. Haven't found the time to use the latter yet but the microscope works well for what it is. Will definitely come in handy.

Rapoo VT9 Pro because it went on a flash sale yesterday on Amazon.
Orico Bluetooth adapter with Broadcom chipset because i'm trying to figure out if its CSR that was too lazy to include Bluetooth BLE support on Windows XP or if Broadcom is also lazy. All of that because Xbox controllers aren't picked up by the adapter, a keyboard and trackpad combo i have that's Bluetooth also isn't picked up by the adapter and my G603 as well.

And yes the TP-Link adapter i have does supports Bluetooth BLE, its the damn driver that doesn't support it.

Update on the Orico adapter, looks like Broadcom were as lazy as CSR and neither adapter supports BLE under XP which effectively locks out Bluetooth controllers out, a lot of mice as well as they all use BLE now. Keyboards aren't spared.

TL;DR, to use modern wireless controllers on XP, grab an adapter from Mayflash that can connect to BLE controllers and set it to XInput mode.

    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
