    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    You can convert it to bin with picotool and decompile the bin with ghidra, there is info on page 30-70

    Yes, but the other cap shouldn't show continuity

    Theoretically one mosfet is able to handle the current, people have been using two to make it easier to connect to both caps.

    https://github.com/raspberrypi/picotool 1681817070 I mean to pull the uf2 from the rp2040 to his pc, so he can safely test with it (assuming it is preflashed)

    What do you mean with normal?

    Hacking Hardware Picofly - a HWFLY switch modchip

    Did you get firmware with it? If not, you can save it on your pc with picotool. It might be designed to be pin compatible with rehius firmware as there a 3 resistors next to pin 27 to 29

    What thickness is needed for the APU connections? 0.2mm?

    You also need flux and thermal paste if you don't have it

    I would wait another month or so before having a picofly installed by someone else, right now the firmware is still being worked on and not all issues are known.

    Rpi Pi Pico won't work as it doesn't have all outputs needed exposed

    Would a flux pen work?

    Hacking Hardware McFly - an RP2040 board compatible with Picofly

    I did a quick overlay of the best erista and mariko pictures I could find, and it seems like it's (barely) possible to make a universal cpu connector for both

    Picofly AIO Thread

    The image section is a bit confusing without context, especially the mosfet part. I would suggest splitting it into a section about the rp2040 pinout, one about the connection points per console and one about the mosfet. Making clear that you can either use the CPU flex cable or manually attach...

    Does the self updating feature need additional connections? @rehius

    Why not they just mine Monero instead of scamming vulnerable people? If they have a decent machine they can hit a jackpot at any given time.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Bitcoin on the other hand, requires a very powerful mining rig and is more costly.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, different cultures so probably they have their reasons
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yes a $2,000 rig for $5 a day
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Or could be in correlation to laws.

    Technically, cryptocurrencies aren't illegal, as long as you don't use it for criminal activity. If you sign up with an exchange, and that they get a tip from law enforcement, they have the right to freeze your assets.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, Yea I heard law is vastly different there
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Nigeria's central bank did make crypto illegal before, until last year they lifted the ban. Always make sure to check before you exchange. ;)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, speaking of crypto i remember reading about a guy who spend like 10 grand bitcoin on a couple pizzas (when bitcoin wasnt as worthy as nowadays)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's mental. If he had saved up when Bitcoin sky-rocketed in price, then he might've become the next Jeff Bezos for all I know.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, he couldnt know the price was gonna skyrocket anyway
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Then it dropped sometime in 2022, 2021 was when it really went up in price.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, I also recall watching a video of some failed games with their own crypto currency or smth like that, lemme link it to you (it's in spanish tho)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I remember that. Didn't Steam ban games with NFTs before somehow devs managed to circumvent it? Think EA tried to dabble in NFTs too.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Glad to hear people realise that NFTs aren't worth it these days. They realise that they're JPEGs hosted on a file-hosting site like AWS or Google Drive.

    Atleast it has captions
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Meta also tried to create their own crypto, but that fell through.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Was called Libra, they had around 100 employees and wanted to hire more near to end of the year.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, idk why facebook tried to do that metaverse thing if mmo games already existed before
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    And Yea I refuse to call it meta
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, I refuse to call it Meta, too. It's a stupid name.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, then why did you call it like that a minute ago?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't get why Facebook ever wanted to dabble into virtual reality, when other companies were doing it.
