Okay. I suppose I won't use DB then, since I hardly play online anyway. How big does the HDD have to be? Does it even have to be a HDD? Can I use a 16GB USB stick? And what exactly would I put on the HDD? Homebrew apps? Themes? Mods?

Homebrew has to be installed, you can't run it from a USB stick.

The only PS3 without a HDD is the 12gb superslim. If you have one of those then CFW isn't an option anyway, all indications are that you would have to redo the exploit every time you turn it on. You'd be able to install homebrew on the 12gb, but you probably would want a hdd eventually.

I don't bother with very large hard drives in PS3's anymore, as it's easier to stream iso's from a PC/NAS. If you play a lot of games then updates and saves take space though, minimum drive I'd go for is 160gb. Some people however decide to fit 1.5tb drives (I think this is still the largest you can use)

Uugh, this is complicated. So, I need an HDD and not a big usb drive? Then it's definitely not worth it, though it would be nice to play minecraft mods or something. What would you put on the hdd besides games that's so big?

It's most likely going to be fw specific, but I would hold off just to be sure.

can I update my ps3 offline if I already downloaded a firmware update?, turns out I'm still in 4.80 but the 4.81 update has already been downloaded automatically.

I have like 4 PS3's lying around that I want to update to 4.81. Could I just leave them off and use an update file to update them later when I am ready to exploit them? I can kill the internet when the time comes so it does not auto update.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Thing is , the videos work fine in the Edge Dev and Canary builds. But whatever the fix they made was, has never been pushed to Beta or Stable builds. Its been that way for as far back as I tested. Which was Edge 84. They are on 125 now.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @RedColoredStars, Yeah, and I was in quite a mood at that time. I would consider choosing Firefox or Opera instead, been using Firefox for over 7 years now than Chrome.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Tried contacting Nintendo to see if they can reach out to MS about it. But Nintendo said the videos are working fine. Without enough people saying no, they don't work fine, it will never get fixed.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I have Firefox and used it for many years. But Edge runs noticible faster on my pc at both opening and loading pages.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't think Nintendo will know anything about troubleshooting Edge. They mostly do technical support regarding their console family.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tell them you downloaded their trailer without permission

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Good one, Ken.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Right. But they could create a ticket that gets forwarded to the proper team. I think Nintendo would care that their videos aren't working on a major browser
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    LOL K3N. HAHAH!

    Chrome is like "BRRRRRRRR" but I dislike the fact it's a powerhouse, and the fact that Manifest v3 exists
