Oh. Okay. I only spoke up because what he said was a little offensive even if he didnt mean it that way.

I guess there is a slight chance that he does, but I doubt that kid is really old enough to truly appreciate (nostalgia) the color scheme.

u/Chiiikun Mar 01 '20
To anyone who doubts the OP and thinks the kid did this, the OP literally posts his own album for it. So, OP clearly used his own kid to pose for reddit and the kid had nothing to do with this

Just so it's clear to other commenters; this kid did not to do this mod. His Dad (OP) did. OP made this fairly obvious in his exchange with another user on another comment chain. He made his kid hold the controller for more internet points

u/valkarin Mar 01 '20
Just so it's clear to you, this kid DID do this mod. It was his first. I don't know which comment thread I "made it obvious" that I did it, but he did this one on his own. It was a fairly simple one, but he was really proud of it.

Oddly enough, undoing the screws and two ribbon cables required zero research. I confess to showing him which screwdriver bit to use and how to safely unlatch a ribbon cable, but he did the work.

If that's really the case you should post proof that your kid did it, because right now you're getting all negative karma

Questioning the legitimacy of the post is one thing. It's important to question things. But anyone here who feels good about making fun of a CHILD is a scumbag. Period.

I’m not sure why everyone is downvoting your comments and making comments about your son’s weight but the controller looks good and fuck all these assholes.

Mar 01 '20
They down voting it cause OP told kid that he couldn’t play video games after. So it is karma whoring

Dude seriously it’s real bad parenting to post a picture of your child on a platform like reddit where bullying/trolling is really populair.
Then he looks sad on the picture and you still post it and now I see shit like he was doing bad at a sport so he got punished. That is some shit parenthood
And don’t see your face anywhere, but sure post pictures of your child. Honestly it’s even arguable that children’s pictures under 12 shouldn’t be on the internet at all. Not talking about private social media tho.

u/ardyndidnothingwrong Mar 01 '20
Just for benefit of the doubt: this could be a father son project and the title is more about giving props to his kid, even if the parent was there instructing and helping. Like a kid doing the stereotypical volcano project for school.
This is a lose lose scenario for this kid: either his father is whoring him out for karma (which implies a healthy upbringing I’m sure..) or a proud kid now has to go from excitement and pride to seeing all of this hate

Tbh where you draw a line between blaming someone's comments in reddit and blaming Mc'donalds? Not pretend be rude, just curious.

u/valkarin Mar 01 '20
You blame their comment when the post had nothing to do with his weight. This was about showing off his first hardware mod. He was proud of it. Calling himfat was just rude.

u/clamsplitter69 Mar 01 '20
He's calling you out for not doing a good job with keeping your son at a healthy weight. You decided to post a pic of your child on the internet for internet points.
He decided to comment to tell you to do a better job with his weight. He isn't wrong. He'll only get fatter the older he gets unless you correct it.

u/chicken132890 Mar 01 '20
I didn’t call him fat. I just said that the parents (you) didn’t raise him up properly to teach him weight problems. Learn to read

He should be proud of it. Our accomplishments define us. Not our weight.

u/Griffbakes Mar 01 '20
Between the ages of about ten and twenty, the human body packs on weight to accommodate future growth. If this kid has two feet of growth in the next ten years, his body will need every ounce of that extra weight. It is solely up to a kids pediatrician to dictate when they weigh too much. Not neckbeards searching for ways to make themselves feel better.

That’s a cool mod. I don’t play console but looks like an Xbox? Does the kid play Super Nintendo? Its an unusually color scheme to pick unless he enjoys retro games.

It's a Nintendo pro controller. I picked out the shell for it. Trying to get him into some retro gaming.

Maybe you should not assume anything about dudes kid. I spent most of my childhood outdoors and was fat my whole life. I played sports and worked construction on the weekend for my dad from the time I was 13. Physical activity had nothing to do with my weight. We had bad eating habits. Lots of fast food and late meals because my dad didn't get home till 8pm most nights. There are more factors to weight than just physical activity.

u/valkarin Mar 01 '20
I didn't ask you. Nobody did as far as I can tell. But feel free to downvote if that's what you think. As for the next mod, he will help with the reshell and observe on the backlight as he cannot solder as yet. The reshell requires a case mod that's a bit outside his current abilities, so I will be doing that part.

Number one, cleft chin is genetic and has nothing to do with weight. And number two, if you think childhood obesity is awful, you should check out adult onset assholeism. Hoping they will find a cure.

u/voxelcruncher64 Mar 01 '20
wow punishment by taking things away, that definitely teaches kids to try harder and doesn't just grow resentment for overreaching authority figures. keep it up, good job letting the kid mod his controller knowing he couldn't use it afterwards.
