  • Some experiments on setting the t-bit on SSD installed in PS3 might prove interesting. Time for system transfer and playing around in OtherOS soon I guess.
    Regular fooling around, trying to get one Rpi Zero working for both PS4 JB and Lego Dimensions emulation
    There's only one command needing sudo: "su -" everything else is just huge bother and nuisance with needless extra typing
    I just don't get Loonixes. Badly written and designed (hack upon hack upon hack, with nobody really on the know how the kernel works anymore.) Documentation - in the rare cases written one exists - is rubbish or even misleading. Ubuntu seems to be worst offender.

    This description pretty much fits on all operating systems. The software has become so huge complex that nobody is remotely able to understand it anymore.
    I have to say that I prefer free/open source over commercial/proprietary garbage with questionable EULA and 10000 integrated anti-features (like spyware) of the kind "No problem, you can turn this off."

    I do love open source, but generally not GPL as better quality stuff tends to have more permissive licences and someone actually bothered with documentation; BSD's, Postgres, LLVM...

    You can update your PS2? Wasn't that done through specifically-coded memory cards, and the update got reverted if the card was removed since there was no real memory to store the update on, and thus the idea never gained much headway outside of one or two

    updates and that FreeMcBoot exploit?

    In short, I don't think one can "update their PS2", necessarily.

    Updating FreeHDBoot, wLaunchELF and OPL. Was pretty sure that PS2 HB development was dead untIl I found out about OPL 1.0. Vanity project called OPL DB doesn't count as real development qualitywise.

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:

  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
