  • 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...
    Happy 40th anniversary, Nihon Falcom! Waiting for the anniversary stream @10PM PST

    Four days to go and my Scarlet Nexus package seems to be stuck in France :(
    Time to finish Xenosaga on PS2 while waiting for 4.88 Evilnat & Scarlet Nexus

    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.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Biomutant looks cool tho, may have to try that
  • Quincy @ Quincy:
    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I still like how a freaking mp3 file hacks webos all that security defeated by text yet again
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    They have simulators for everything nowdays, cray cray. How about a sim that shows you playing the Switch.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's called yuzu

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
    K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2: @BigOnYa...
