I cuss you bad
Might be rescuable, depending on what's failed. If it's a reball then it's really bloody hard. Dodgy capacitors isn't as bad to fix.I've got an old fat PS3 (non-BC) with the YLoD that's been sitting in a closet for years. There's an electronics disposal event happening next week and I was considering taking it there, though... I wonder if there's a better fate for it? I don't know if anyone wants these things for parts, and also don't know if there's a risk of exposing my data through there. Seems a shame to just pulp it, though.
Dunno, I really hate throwing stuff like that out, but fixing it is tricky
