minioctt<p><strong>wiiu merdifera e il suo cavo spaccacaroso</strong></p><p>Non ne avevo minimamente voglia, ma stamattina ho dovuto necessariamente attivare <em>la versione meno ortodossa dei miei poteri di ragno</em> <strong>e creare <em>una fottutissima crisalide…</em> sopra all’alimentatore del WiiU, che si rifiutava di funzionare</strong>. Infatti — e non ne ho mai parlato direttamente, ma <a href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/2024/08/23/piante-filifere/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">menzionai la cosa un annetto fa di corsa parlando di altro</a> — <strong>da un po’ di tempo il cavo è rotto nel punto dell’uscita del trasformatore</strong>, con la copertura di gomma del cavo che si è abbastanza staccata da quel solito <em>bitorzolo</em> che servirebbe proprio a evitare rotture di questo tipo, che in questo caso però l’ha favorita, ironicamente. 😓</p><p>Io in realtà <strong>pensavo di avere da un annetto o due questo problema…</strong> e invece, cercando al volo tra <em>gli archivi dello spacc</em>, mi sono accorta che <strong>già nel 2021 avevo notato questo fatto di merda…</strong> <a href="https://t.me/SpaccInc/305" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://t.me/SpaccInc/305</a>… quindi, probabilmente, <strong>sarà da almeno 5 anni che il cavo è rotto così</strong>. Non me ne sono mai preoccupata, perché quel rame che si intravede è girato tutto attorno al centro, quindi sarà solo la massa, mentre il positivo sarà ancora isolato bene dentro (che modo di merda di strutturare un cavo, però), e comunque lì ci passa solo corrente continua a 75 V, dunque <em>non si muore…</em> <strong>peccato che stamattina però la console non si accendesse proprio</strong>, dopo che settimane fa ho spostato l’alimentatore. 🙊</p><p><strong>Girando un pochino <em>‘sto blocco di merda</em>, alla fine ha funzionato</strong>, però a questo punto è chiaro che in questo stato le cose non potessero che peggiorare. Quindi, considerato <em>che sono tirchia</em>, che comunque questo alimentatore ufficiale Nintendo non si vende (almeno, non più), che eviterei a prescindere alimentatori cinesi, e che non so saldare (non che in questo caso si possa fare, si è rotto a merda e il cavo in sé è comunque strambo)… Per questa riparazione hardware ho preso, <em>da brava sviluppatrice software</em>, la colla a caldo e, a costo della suddetta crisalide ed una decina di minuti spesi per costruirla bene, <strong>ora l’alimentatore sembra fungere <em>alla più completa perfezione</em></strong>, senza smettere di erogare energia al minimo giramento come prima. 😳🎊</p><p><em><strong>Situazione estremamente scomoda</strong></em> per fare tutto ciò, comunque, perché per testare temporaneamente una cosa sulla console (dovevo vedere altro, non mi aspettavo mica non si accendesse per il filo rotto…) mi sono trovata ad appoggiare lo scatolotto sotto la scrivania, e poi quando ho trovato la posizione di funzionamento giustamente non ho potuto più muoverlo, finché non l’avessi incollato… Quindi, <strong>con lo scotch l’ho tenuto fermo sul case del PC</strong> (lì si trovava in quel momento, ops), l’ho staccato un attimo dalla ciabatta, ho fatto la prima passata di colla, l’ho riattaccato e verificato che funzionasse, e poi ho sparato il resto della colla con la console accesa per assicurarmi fosse tutto a posto. E si, <strong>ora lato alimentazione la console è a posto</strong>, ma… <em>il suo schifo lo fa comunque, perché mi legge la mio microSD solo quando vuole lei</em>; ma questo è uno <em>spacc</em> per un’altra volta. Tanto, comunque, tempo per il gaming non ci sta, pazienza. 👻</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/console/" target="_blank">#console</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/wiiu/" target="_blank">#WiiU</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/nintendo/" target="_blank">#Nintendo</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/hardware/" target="_blank">#hardware</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/riparazione/" target="_blank">#riparazione</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/spacc/" target="_blank">#spacc</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/repair/" target="_blank">#repair</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/alimentatore/" target="_blank">#alimentatore</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://octospacc.altervista.org/tag/psu/" target="_blank">#PSU</a></p>
Ari [APz] Sovijärvi<p>One thing that has always bugged me about Allied Leisure's cocktail cabinets is the absolutely horrible heat they produce. The thing is easily closer to 40°C+ by the end of the night, the electronics probably aren't lovin' it. They obviously knew they have a problem, as this is one of the rare pins to have a cabinet fan. It blows directly to the 5V regulator's heat sink, but the air flow is so measly it does nothing for the heat problem. Also the vent is pointing downwards about 1/3 from top of the cabinet.</p><p>I made a drop-in replacement for the vent with <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/FreeCAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeCAD</span></a> with the change that this one has a fan on it. Today was the first full day the thing was on after the modification and now the playfield glass is cool to touch. What a difference! I'm still going to also replace the intake fan, it's making dying fan sounds but I needed to order a centrifugal fan for that.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>repair</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/pinrepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pinrepair</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/arcaderepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>arcaderepair</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/mods" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mods</span></a></p>
Ari [APz] Sovijärvi<p>The switches used in especially older games are one common DIY chore here. While some can be bought complete, quite often more rare ones require some assemble.
