So I like many other people have a ps3 console with that stupid tab that has broken, and unlike others, i did not break mine.
I digress.

Has anyone tried to solder wires from the motherboard itself to either the Bluray daughterboard and or the ribbon cable?
I ask as this is what I will be doing soon, and wasnt sure if anyone had done so before. Wanted to know if there was a way to go about doing this. Not sure what to search via google if such a thing has been attempted. but will give it a go anyway.

I know that there are LOADS of tiny connectors that will need connecting, but i have faith i should be able to do it in the end. and assuming the connectors themselves are currently intact and in working order, it should be up and running soon enough.

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Toxic pills are best
