    Tutorial PS4 Exploit Guide

    KiiWii has repeatedly hinted at unpublished stuff for low FW's that might or might not see the light of the day after PS4 is no longer relevant in larger scheme of things. FWIW I keep one PS4 @5.05 and the other at the 9.00 sweet spot. Might be exercise of futility, but if something happens wrt...

    Tutorial PS4 Exploit Guide

    For now it can. The low firmwares, 5.05 or earlier, have a better chance of getting more interesting stuff in the future. Simple as that.

    Things you have fixed/modded recently

    Previous owner (Luke?) used Force, bit excessively I reckon. Not my finest, but will do (and more practice needed...) And the patient is alive, with Gulikit TMR sticks :)

    Gaming Do you avoid old games that are only playable in 30fps or less?

    As someone with regular human perception and reflexes; no, 30 fps does not bother me a bit.

    Things you recently bought or got

    Well I paid about thrice that with 10% Hakko discount in the store - and for my needs I still consider the price cheap. Considering the prices of almost all Japanese things in Japan vs. in other countries, it's great you have the "insider connections". :bow:

    Things you recently bought or got

    In the prehistoric times ( computer factories in Western Europe, all components were through hole etc. ) I worked for a while in computer factory in soldering and testing. We had the good Weller desoldering stations available for failed mobos. After that I've been spoiled tbh and the manual...

    Bit the bullet. I dislike the manual desoldering pumps and the desoldering stations are bit too expensive for now. Have several refurb projects waiting anyway with trough hole solders. One poweramp, one Dualsense with broken R3 (Luke used probably too much force) etc...

    Vita TV Technical Issue

    Monitor - not a TV? Just making sure as PSTV needs HDCP compliant display. If monitor, what happens if you connect PSTV into a TV set? //EDIT Also the HDMI cable should be HDCP 2.0 compliant, any old - even working - cable won't cut it.

    Things you have fixed/modded recently

    Found this XBox Stellar Shift controller in broken state. The left stick wasn't working at all, felt "floppy" and practically no response at all. Opened the controller and found out that the potentiometer axle wasn't connected to the stick at all - both were undamaged though. Easy fix - opened...

    Emulation CEMU high threat alert on Linux

    Yes and no. If anyone ran the affected version (and creator forbid any dev of any project did that) the excretion is going to hit the ventilator hard. The attack was apparently mainly aimed at stealing github etc. user credentials with also "nuking" of Israeli users as an additional, but not...

    Twilight Princess PC port "Dusk" gets its first release

    Definitely interested - for me one of the better Zeldas, if not the best. Have to wait for Wii version support though, as I do not have the GC version. Enough backlog to entertain me for the waiting period anyways.
