You could run linux without HV, it just wouldn't be as good and it's a lot of work either way.

That doesn't seem like the same thing. More like running an emulator inside the current system. It's not totally your product unless you can bypass the Sony system first. Imagine being able to install windows on ps5 hardware

I get where you're coming from, but unless you can name 1000 scalpers who did that, the number is meaningless in comparison to the amount of consoles that actually found their way to customers. Even then we'd talk about less than 2 per cent of total PS5 sales worldwide.

I didn't say 1000 scalpers. I said one scalper could buy 1000 units, plus you don't know how many units are still being sat on by one scalper let alone 1000

I understood you, but please let me ask you something: Why are you making such a fuzz about it? You have no idea how many units are sitting unused with people who just wanted to flip them. And the imaginary number you have thrown at us is so small that it doesn't even make a difference.

I don't mind your point, but I would like to see some real data that proves it before I buy into it.

Is there a way to automatically or manually pause and unpause Kstuff without using etaHEN?

In some games like TLOU II, when Kstuff is enabled, the game stutters and I experience noticeable frame drops. However, when I pause Kstuff, performance is good.

At the moment, I am using etaHEN only for this purpose, so I am looking for an alternative solution that would allow me to control Kstuff without relying on etaHEN...

There is a kstuff-toggle for that, but my recommendation is to try the combination of kstuff-lite + shadowmountplus becuse in this combination you don't need kstuff disable/enable option.

Weird. I have this combination, but I dont receive any notification that kstuff is on or off when I run my games. Do I need the notify.elf to this?

The world is full of such obvious things that no one by any chance will ever observe... that means you gotta pay attention to spot the obvious. The point I was making, which you clearly missed, has nothing to do with the numbers, and everything to do with the perception of the profit margins. Example: If walmart buys a million copies of a book, the writer has a best seller, but walmart only sold two copies. Does that make it a best seller because Walmart bought so many copies but didn't sell even a fraction of that amount? Or does it get mistaken for a best seller because they sold it to a corporation that couldn't sell more than 2 copies. This is how most mass produced crap creates a surplus of unwanted crap on the store shelves. Just because the people trying to profit buy it up, doesn't mean the targeted end user will. I'm pretty sure there are YouTube videos with plenty of comments from people pissed off at how the last two generations of playstation have had nothing new and its all repackaged ps3 games. Hey they're you go. The automobile industry is the perfect example, look at how Japan has so a lot full of units that were sold to the dealers but couldn't be sold to the customer. All those Facebook market place sales don't count to the total, which makes the numbers irrelevant. The retailers are the ones causing the price gouging by buying up shit the public won't buy, the scalpers are using that to their advantage by buying up all the stuff the public will buy. Econotricks 101

That’s why kstuff is not disabled, because in that combination it doesn’t need to be, since there’s no need for it

Dude, you're so delusional. Okay, you basically say the last PlayStation generations have been crap. Up until this point I even agree. I don't get why people cherish the PS4. It was mid at best. Yet what you fail to see is that people are indeed buying that crap. Some even spent more than MSRP. You cannot argue against that with imaginary examples that you cannot even prove are applicable. Some people are either especially stupid or both wealthy and easy to please. Deal with it. Your posts read as if you really cannot believe this is how things work. As if you cannot take it as fact that shit is being bought despite being shit.

You call me delusional and you're the one confusing people like me who would pay for an overpriced machine I could modify with the people who submit to the products as services insanity. I traded my 97 all manual Saturn sl1 for a ps3 on 3.50 firmware, but only after the manual steering broke. I would have never bought one from walmart. None of the examples I gave were imaginary. In fact you type in ps5 on Facebook marketplace and see all the people getting rid of their unmodified ps5 because they don't play it much. I never said there weren't people buying stupid shit, what I said was, and this is the most important part that proves you are the one who is delusional, I said there weren't enough idiots buying the shit to give it the hype the advertisements gave it and how is that fake hype that makes some idiots buy up lots of them thinking they mark them up a hundred fold for lots of other idiots. You need to learn how to stop assuming what people are saying based on your own ignorance of the facts. The fact is that "retail" is what causes price gouging when people think it's the industry standard to over charge for that crap. Why here's an example of that, Kroger. Buy 3 get 3 free, but one is so over priced your buying 3 for each one so you pay for 9 and only get 6. My main point was, just because the retailers and the scalpers are buying up so much hyped stuff does not mean they will resell all those units. That means those projected sales Sony is showing is what the retailers and the scalpers bought from them not what was sold to John q public. Jesus fucking christ you just don't compute how economics works. Game stop is reselling wiiu units they couldn't sell before

I did. That's one big paragraph, notice how the focus never changes? This is your free writing lesson for the day, the next one will cost you... short paragraphs are for weak minds and that minimum word count was to weed them out.

Does anyone know if theres a list of games that are compatible with internal ? My USB m.2 is full, my internal drive is empty, and I want to get more games lol

BobaFett_UK · Feb 24, 2026

Isn't kstuff needed to start the games and then you pause as soon as the game starts, That's what the auto kstuff toggle does in etaHEN.

Yeah no you're all over the place, bitching about live service and selling your broken manual, to people being so stupid compared to you, hype being over hyped but also economics so smart. We call that a wall of text, don't be so pedantic.

This is GBATemp, not the "I'm smarter and pwnd a rando um akshooly" subreddit. You're like that one mob with the bullshit aggro range, just chill...damn. Don't off-topic this shit...again. In fact there's even places on here where you can have those convos, but it's not the ps5 main sticky thread. Last word andy over here, jeez. I'll allow it, you're welcome to the last, then stop.

Is this still the PS5 exploit guide thread? Because lately it reads more like a personal manifesto thread. Lots of unrelated economics, ideology, and ‘look how clever I am’ commentary. Interesting? Maybe. Relevant? Not really.

When a thread turns into someone’s soapbox, it makes it harder for people who are actually trying to follow the topic. If those debates are that important, spin them off into their own thread and see how many people actually care. Just don’t hijack the main PS5 topic to push your own self-important agenda.

Yes it is. I was just discussing how it is the exploitability of the ps5 that keeps it alive. Some people Just make their own brainless assumptions about facts being just somebody else's opinion.

I mean, yeah. I have mine in the closet in the box right now as there's really nothing groundbreaking yet. Waiting for the scene to get a little more steady. I more use the Switch 2 and MiSTer FPGA anyways, so I can wait.
