hi there , good to join this tech forum and learn

[Cariarer]

Hi all!

I'm a 52 year old guy from Germany, who just started to get his feet wet to fix electronics. I started off with the Nintendo Switch, as it is quite easy to understand and troubleshoot (well, in comparison to some other gadgets, that is). I'm a software engineer by day, so I'm also into the whole "how does hard and software play together" thing. My goal is, to offer repair services to the people around me. Mainly to get the satisfaction from saving a device from the landfill, but also to recoup the costs a little, for all the tools I bought. I'm also sorts of a maker and sell 3D printed stuff as well. So, my main driving factor in getting deeper into this area is pure curiosity.

Needing all the help a newbie can get, I'm glad that these places like these exists on the internet.

All the best...

Hi

[dimonn]

Hello everyone,

I'm Damian, electronics is my passion, both hardware and software. I love rescuing old gear from the dump, but it’s frustrating when good hardware is bricked due to unavailable or broken firmware.

Excited to join this forum and learn from you all!

Cheers, Damian

Hi all,

Lovely to meet everyone - I can see there's an awful lot of knowledge on this forum, which is great.

I'm trying to learn more about hardware (as most of my background is in software), so this feels like a great place to glean some tips and tricks.

Hi. I'm suroth. Just getting into soldering and understanding how repair and enhance my technical equipment.

I'm currently at the 'I know enough to know I do not know enough yet'. Been enjoying tinkering on PCs for the better part of three decades. I don't mess around with in my work anymore, but it is still a passion.

Hi and really delighted to be here.
Just to challenge "old skool boyz and girlz" I started with my fathers IBM 8086... So, It's been a very long trip!
I'm an avid follower of channels as BigClive's, Mr. Carlson, Dicky's Learn Electronic Repair and as I have seen how helpful is the community, I decided to join you (if I'm allowed) in case I can share any hardware hint, or ask for a bit (LOT) of help now that I have much more time for my owm projects.
Big hugz to all techies from another tech engineer!!

[AlexMannn]

Hi all!

My name is Alex. I want to join your community.

A little about myself: I was born and live in Ukraine.

We are currently at war and our people are fighting off the Russian occupation army, but life goes on and I do my job.
I repair radio equipment, laptops and other electronics.

My specialization is an engineer of automatic control systems for technological processes.

I hope I can be useful and maybe I'll find something useful here for myself.🤔🤗

[HillieB]

I'm Anton, and I've been passionate about computers and technology since the early days of the IBM XT. That clunky beige box sparked a lifelong fascination with how machines think, communicate, and evolve—and I’ve been riding the wave of innovation ever since.

Over the years, I’ve worked with everything from DOS and Windows NT to modern cloud platforms and enterprise-grade automation. My main focus these days is scripting in PowerShell, where I build tools, automate workflows, and solve complex problems for a large international company. I love the elegance of a well-crafted script and the satisfaction of turning repetitive tasks into seamless processes.

Beyond PowerShell, I’ve dabbled in Python, batch scripting, and a bit of C#, and I’m always curious about new technologies—whether it's containerization, infrastructure as code, or the latest in endpoint management. I’ve spent a lot of time in systems administration, Active Directory, and enterprise security, and I enjoy bridging the gap between technical depth and practical solutions.

Looking forward to connecting with fellow tech enthusiasts
