I usually don't make blogs, but since I can't dev nor RE sysmodules atm I thought I might as well just make a blog about this.
On this sunday (yesterday) night my phone decided that half of it should stop working. Nearly everything died, including GPS, GSM, camera, some screen settings, and it doesn't even recognize the SIM card, no matter what SIM card I put in it, it works in every other phone/device.
Okay, I put it in my old GT-S5230, but the browser crashes on nearly every webpage, the touchscreen is too small and is buggy, and Discord doesn't even work on it...
Okay, I put it in my Archos 50 Neon, but the battery drains in 4hrs, the touchscreen's functionality rate is 13% (aka. it barely even works), the touch buttons are glitched out, and System UI crashes if the battery goes below 15% .-.
...at least my BlackBerry Bold 9700 works... but I'm using my Archos since that has Discord
Not so long ago I found a MacBook in the trash. The battery is insanely expanded, and the touchpad is bent (see image)
Today I walked into an Apple Store (yes, walked, even though it was 40seconds away from an U-Bahn (Metro/Underground) stop), and after waiting 15mins in the strong "Apple smell" they told me that I should throw this MacBook out ("du kannst das wegschmeissen"), and after ~4mins of debate they finally told me how much the charger costs... 90 fucking Euros?! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat 
and the battery is also 90€ 
I looked up some stuff, and it has this in it: 750G HDD, 2x4G RAM, and I guess this is the i7 model, not the i5 model... I'm both very lucky and very unlucky at the same time with this
To add the last contrast to this post (first negative, second both positive and negative, and this one is positive) I've been reverse engineering some 3DS sysmodules with success, and not only does this give more insight and more documentation about how the 3DS is build and how it works, but also makes us closer to doing stuff with the 3DS hardware in bare metal (namely ARM9 payloads and ARM11 co-payloads where the hardware registers are only accessible from the ARM11 side).
Also, good timing, I got contact with d0k3 not so long ago, we might see new features in G9, including accurate system time without needing to touch anything to make it work
Also, I wrote this because I'm curious for others' opinions regarding this, so please write your opinions and ideas if you have some. Also, please don't turn this into EoF, please keep the discussion sophisticated
