35:00 <electrohead> lol, hey dude
35:00 <^pHANTOM^> whats crackin?
36:00 <electrohead> well .. playing on my original xbox
37:00 <electrohead> I first modded this when I was stationed in okinawa - it was my first actual electronics project, ever
37:00 <electrohead> I just finished repairing it yesterday
37:00 <electrohead> :D
38:00 <^pHANTOM^> nice
38:00 <^pHANTOM^> :D
38:00 <^pHANTOM^> great work.
40:00 <Demob> hey phantom, electro
40:00 <electrohead> yeah was having power issues, recapped the board, and had to reseat the mod chip
40:00 <Demob> i still have to get around to modding my OG xbox
40:00 <electrohead> easy fix
41:00 <electrohead> Demob: try to find the smartxx mod chip
41:00 <Demob> i dont even know what revision i have, i forget :)
41:00 <electrohead> works on all revisions, I have it installed on a 1.6 board
41:00 <electrohead> also - look into "cerbios"
42:00 <electrohead> the latest release supports the 128 MB RAM hardware mod, and supports up to .. 4TB drives?
42:00 <Demob> where can i get one in aust
42:00 <electrohead> ebay is your friend.
42:00 <Demob> ah
43:00 <electrohead> the smartxx team has been out of business for a bit, now
43:00 <electrohead> that said though - there are different mod chips you can use
43:00 <electrohead> I have the smartxx chip, and it's lovely. LCD screen support and everything
44:00 <Demob> nice
46:00 <electrohead> https://www.modchipcentral.com/store/XBox-Aladdin-Advance-XT-Modchip-PLUS2-USA/CANADA.html
46:00 <electrohead> I'm not sure if they ship to AU?
47:00 <electrohead> (that's a decent mod chip, btw)
48:00 <Demob> not sure
48:00 <electrohead> and if you find something that won't ship to AU, just tossing this out there - send it to me, and I'll resend to you
49:00 <Demob> that'd cost more than i paid for the xbox 
49:00 <Demob> where are you again?
49:00 <electrohead> NC, USA
49:00 <electrohead> also, you have this option - https://github.com/Ryzee119/OpenXenium
49:00 <Demob> ah north carolina
50:00 <electrohead> yeah
50:00 <electrohead> you get it here, and I'll send it to you, no worries
50:00 <electrohead> as in, I'd help you out
50:00 <Demob> ppl used one of those new rpi's as a modchip on ps1 i think
50:00 <Demob> the rpi nano or whatever its called
50:00 <electrohead> RP2040
51:00 <electrohead> yeah, I love that thing :)
53:00 <Demob> rpi pico
53:00 <Demob> thats the one
54:00 <Demob> and gamecube
54:00 <Demob> https://hackaday.com/2022/07/05/raspberry-pi-pico-modchip-unlocks-the-gamecube/
56:00 <Demob> i have a lot of different consoles but not a gamecube
56:00 <electrohead> yeah, the actual IC in question is the RP2040
57:00 <electrohead> I do hate how it's labeled "raspberry pi pico" - a lot of people think it runs linux, when it fucking doesn't
57:00 <Demob> ffffff
58:00 <Demob> oh
58:00 <Demob> theyre real cheap
58:00 <Demob> i bought a few
59:00 <Demob> this is disturbing but interesting : https://youtu.be/wglJxY6i77E Meet the 'Black Diggers:' The Russians Robbing WW2 Graves
00:00 <electrohead> I exited out, after skipping through, and heard "we're reenacting"
02:00 <Demob> haha yeah they were pretty cringey larpers but... i get it. not much else to do 
02:00 <Demob> special interest social groups are good
03:00 <Demob> if i had the chance, id go detectoring for relics, sure. but not graves
04:00 <Demob> and only if it was legal would i go detectoring
05:00 <Demob> some dude in russia was busted with a garage full of ww2 weapons from these 'black digs'
05:00 <Demob> which is what got my interest
06:00 <Demob> weapons and ammo. not just rifles (inc full autos) but grenades, ammo
06:00 <Demob> oops i said ammo twice
06:00 <Demob> frustrating dealing with these fridge ppl
06:00 <Demob> if i get more hassle ill tell them to forget it
06:00 <Demob> ill buy a 2nd hand one on paypal pay in 4
07:00 <Demob> imagine how many weapons are disappearing from ukraine fields now
07:00 <Demob> in order to get a no interest loan i gave them my electricity, gas, centrelink and 4 months of bank statements 
07:00 <Demob> they rang up demanding my paypal statemetns, i asked why and this idiot said because i have an afterpay debt. i do not, i never used afterpay or zip pay or any of those, only paypal pay in 4
07:00 <Demob> retards
08:00 <Demob> going westward probably
08:00 <Demob> how would giving them my paypal statement help with afterpay? makes 0 sense
10:00 <Demob> already wasted 2.5 hours with a different idiot going thru my stuff 
15:00 <Demob> one of the first things year 10 science teacher said was that if you throw a coin off the top of the empire state building, and it hits someone it will go right thru them. it didnt make sense. he was explaining terminal velocity... anyway its been proven to be bullshit
16:00 <Demob> it might embed into someones skull if theres no air, sure but the wind drag slows it down, its been tested
25:00 <Demob> i think my og xbox is a 1.5 or 1.6 from memory now tht i think about it
26:00 <electrohead> yeah the 1.6 boards have the xcalibur chip on it, and the footprints for extra RAM IC's are gone
30:00 <Demob> doh
31:00 <Demob> https://hackaday.com/2023/01/30/retro-gadgets-the-cb-cell-phone/
36:00 <Demob> i wonder if my cb can be modded to do 10m? :D
46:00 <Demob> omggg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goi%C3%A2nia_accident
50:00 <Demob> thats shocking especially how this little kid played with the cesium and applied it to herself cos it glowed, and while eating... 
51:00 <Demob> i read about a similar story, some rednecks in georgia (the country not the state) broke into some place and found some big drum and rolled it back to their camp and used it as a SEAT because it 'was nice and warm'
52:00 <Demob> it was radioactive material
