Engineer creates first custom motherboard for 1990s PlayStation console

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-17 05:51:04

Last week, electronics engineer Lorentio Brodesco announced the completion of a mock-up for nsOne, reportedly the first custom PlayStation 1 motherboard created outside of Sony in the console's 30-year history. The fully functional board accepts original PlayStation 1 chips and fits directly into the original console case, marking a milestone in reverse-engineering for the classic console released in 1994. Brodesco's motherboard isn't an emulator or FPGA-based re-creation—it's a genuine circuit

The Best Motherboards: AMD and Intel

techspot.com Steven Walton 2025-09-15 08:40:00

With a little more budget, you can get some really nice boards for up around $200. From day one, a stand out which we featured in our early 10th-gen coverage is the MSI MAG Z490 Tomahawk, it's a great quality motherboard priced at $190. In our testing, the Z490 Tomahawk peaked at just 74 degrees running a Core i9-10900K clocked at 5.1 GHz using 1.35v, so you don't need to spend big money to get the most out of Intel's new 10-core processor, despite the fact that it is extremely power hungry when

June’s Pixel Drop gives Gboard the power to create stickers without Pixel Studio

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-17 12:00:12

TL;DR Pixel users will now be able to generate custom stickers right in Gboard. Stickers are created by typing a prompt and selecting an emotion. The custom sticker function is available for Pixel 9 and newer devices. Back in May, we found code in the Gboard beta that suggested Google could add the ability to generate stickers without having to open Pixel Studio. At the time, it seemed like the feature may have been in the early stages of development due to its lack of UI elements. But it app

9to5mac.com Fernando Silva 2025-09-18 06:00:00

Characterizing my first attempt at copper-only passives

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-15 00:01:50

Characterizing my first attempt at copper-only passives¶ Last year, I kind of got a bee in my bonnet about trying to see if I could accurately (?) make small RF passives out of copper, rather than buying 2pF NP0 capacitors or something, as part of a long-on-the-horizon project to make extremely inexpensive GHz-class oscilloscope probes. I figured that the right place to start was to fab out a board on JLCPCB's JLC04161H-3313 stackup with a handful of calibration standards, and some of the passi

Amiga 4000T: The Best Amiga in the World

Amiga 4000T: The Best Amiga in the World There had never been an Amiga better than Amiga 4000T. The T stands for tower, but this computer did not stand out in Amiga history due to its format factor, as Commodore had already been selling the tower version of A3000. Rather, it was the ultimate Amiga in what many call today the "classic" series, and nothing better — or anything else for that matter — has ever been produced in the classic Amiga line since this model was released.

ProtoArc XKM01 CaseUp Combo Review: A Reliable Portable Workstation

wired.com Brenda Stolyar 2025-06-03 13:30:00

The mouse is perfectly adequate too. It's slim but provides enough palm support that my hand doesn't feel like it's cramping up. The scroll wheel and buttons are smooth and responsive. After a short time, I noticed a strange, squeaky noise coming from the left side whenever I'd click. It's not always there, but it's slightly annoying whenever it comes back. Like the keyboard, it charges via USB-C but has a slightly longer battery life of up to 200 days (standby time). The stand is super adjusta
