UFA 2026 was such a blast ! Kudos to everyone involved for such a welcoming event. Brought some loot, most notably this Seimitsu LS-32 to try it out in one of my builds.

Hmmm, is this anything ? Should I pursue making a slim leverless version of our cat shaped friend ?

I updated my bill of materials because I've noticed some prices hikes since the Iran war started. If I keep my current prices each build will actually cost me money and there no scenario where buying in bulk in this economy ends up well for me 💀

It's shaping to be my favorite piece of pc hardware in year. Cheap, powerful, easy to tinker with, and small enough to use it as a living room box. This weekend I'm introducing my daughter to Sam & Max with it.

Received this yesterday, it feels really great to read, can't wait to see the stick wired up !

an email that reads:
"Hi Yann,
It arrived a couple of days ago, and it's even more beautiful than I expected.
You're a true craftsman, and it was a pleasure doing business with you.
Thank you!"

And now I wanna make a db15 compatible stick and dust of my MVS slot. Maybe print a console shell while I'm at it. Hmmmmmm.

Also I made myself a tool to tighten Qanba Gravity Lx buttons, gotta love 3d printing.

Finished my TV rig made from an ASRock BC250 card and a 3d printed custom cooling funnel. A (small) full gaming PC for around 250€ that can even play modern AAAs, and still be whisper quiet. So proud of how it turned out.

3d printed a prototype wrap-around air duct so I don't need to destroy the existing cooler. Seems to be working alright, now to test it with the BC 250 powered on !

I deshrouded my 3080 to replace the thermal pads/paste and put some Noctuas instead of the stocks fans, the results are crazy, I'm getting 27° under load. Not an easy task but extremely worth it.

Ok I caved in, I've bought a usedcryptobro card that can be turned into a full gaming pc. It will be perfect for when I start to build myself an arcade cab.

Not really pretty yet, but those 3d printed headphones already blow my expectations. Let's design a headband next.

Ik i mentioned this before but now that Grok creates blatant CP, i am really surprised that more people from the FGC STILL haven’t fully switched over to Bluesky or even stop using Twitter completely. Even in terms of my local FGC, i would really love to see some of my IRL oomfs more active here :/
