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.
