I love D&D, Retro Tech, Gaming and repairing things. I sometimes stream on twitch.tv. https://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3lqoxvpv3g222I just want to wish everyone out there a happy pride month! One of my friends said "It's pride month all year at mine" and I agree but it also feels important to have this time to learn about the history and issues faced by the LGBTQ+ community, and to send a message of solidarity. #pridemonth03 Jun 2025 09:25 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqoxvpv3g222https://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3lff2yaeja22dPlanning to write a blog post about my process for cleaning/restoring old controllers and consoles. My results are generally very good, but my methods are likely to be controversial. On a side note, I fixed my website and it's back online at davewarnock.com.10 Jan 2025 11:17 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lff2yaeja22dhttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3lff2l7skn22dInteresting blog post about how classic arcade games were rescued from a rotting ship. If not for the hard work of people like this then Video Games are going to be like silent movies, with tons of lost media. https://arcadeblogger.com/2016/05/06/arcade-raid-the-duke-of-lancaster-ship/10 Jan 2025 11:09 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lff2l7skn22dhttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3leu3fnqdck2gProgress! The Xbox controllers all feel pretty good if I'm being honest, even the Duke controller. Need to clean up the XBox S controller which I picked up the other day.03 Jan 2025 17:09 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3leu3fnqdck2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3lemrzyxcrs2zFinished fixing the crystal Xbox! This one clearly belonged to a smoker and was full of tar and tar-covered dust. Someone had already done a superficial cleaning and removed the clock cap (thankfully). Very pleased!31 Dec 2024 19:33 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lemrzyxcrs2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3leluymgc3s2eJust finished deep cleaning these original Xbox controllers.

Bit of a process and I eyeballed the calibration instead of doing it properly but it's now stable. Very pleased.21 Dec 2024 21:19 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldttcroi3k2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3lczhnqnm2224Working on this TV. Recap is going well, hoping to have it fixed by the weekend, but the post is being sloooooow.11 Dec 2024 09:41 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lczhnqnm2224https://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3lb2zg6wtos2nWelcome to everyone who has finally moved over from the shit hole Twitter has become!16 Nov 2024 13:41 +0000at://did:plc:65r3vxo7tyqko3t4ghk5gpp2/app.bsky.feed.post/3lb2zg6wtos2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/davewarnock.bsky.social/post/3kcif4hn5zr2rSome new additions to my collection.
