Basically, those are all the “titles” that appear when im in USB Loader GX. I’ve tried deleting and reloading my WBFS to see if they would appear, they wouldn’t. I’ve tried to reinitializing my SD card, but that clears those “titles” and doesn’t show anything else. I don’t really know what to do because I’m not experienced in this stuff, I just follow YouTube guides.

It was only like this after I swapped SD cards. Its formatted as Fat32

I tried both, neither seems to be the issue. I looked into it a little and found that even though I have it set to boot from my SD Card, its saying that the Game/Install Partition is unused. In a video I watched its supposed to say FAT32 with the amount of storage next to it. Is there a way to fix this? Im confident its in FAT32.

So you have your games on your SD card? If so do you have a USB drive connected? If that's the case try removing the USB, I've had issues where the settings for USB Loader got saved to USB even though I already had it working from SD. If not then maybe the issue is with your cIOS, try syscheck and paste the results here, maybe you installed outdated cIOS from the guide you followed.

I tried removing the USB, it didn't do anything.
This is my SysCheck. Though I don't really know what any of it means.

it's a report on the IOS that you have installed on your console, you mainly care about vIOS58, vIOS249, vIOS250 and vIOS251. IOS 58 gives USB 2.0 support in homebrew applications, IOS 249, 250 and 251 are used to load games. You have them all installed and up to date so this isn't the problem.

Ok, to avoid any further confusion, what's your setup?
Do you have both USB Loader and your games on your SD card?
Do you have USB Loader on your SD card and your games on a USB drive?
If you have your games on a USB drive is it a flash drive or a hard disk drive?

Probably should've clarified, sorry.
USB Loader and the games are both located on my SD card yes.

Remove the USB drive BEFORE launching USB Loader, that way the config file will be loaded from SD, if it's still not working delete usb loader, download the latest version and copy it to your SD. If that doesn't work try the old SD card, if that one works then the new one is either defective or may need to be formatted again.

    good morning

    Fucking credit score keeps going up and down 7-10 points per month and I'm not even doing anything with it lol

    Ken - good score or bad?
  • cearp @ cearp:
    / going to be making use of it any time soon?

    Credit scores are weird but -- like you say, if you're not using it -- not using credit -- that's "bad" for your score
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Trying to improve it at 645
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yet equafax is 678
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You need to show you can use credit / borrow money and pay it back to get a good score.

    Some people think that means paying interest -- that is NOT correct.
    For example, some think you need to "carry a balance" on your credit cards, and that if you pay the whole bill at once, that's bad.
    Not true at all. If you can, perfectly fine to pay your card statement in full.

    If you want your score to go up, don't close any credit cards - keep them all open as closing an account reduces your average age of credit account, which is bad.

    Also how the algorithms work, if you have multiple cards, have the final monthly balance reported on them be 0 (as in pay off early so nothing charged to you in your bill) on all but one card. So only let one card have a balance that's reported to the agencies.

    And keep your credit utilization below 30% - so if you're allowed to access $10,000 of credit, don't go above $3,000 or that looks bad.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    645 isn't a bad score but sure can be better. If there are any bad marks on your history, I've seen some people successfully get these removed by asking
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    One friend is like 550 I'm like how lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Thing is we get so comfortable living we don't really have anything else we want to buy until something happens to said expensive item and then you gotta take another loan to replace that
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I did a secure loan once to build credit - worked well, specifically did a trick where the loan balance was kept at like 3% for 5 years. As having a loan basically paid off is good for your credit score.
    So took out the (small) loan, paid 95% off immediately lol, then paid $2 a month for a few years.
    Not every bank / credit union let you do that, and even the ones that do might think your behavior is weird lol :D
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Over time secured loans can get you free shit if you're smart about payments the money essentially goes back to you
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Paid like $100-150 or so in interest in total over those 5 years in return for a good bump of my credit score, worth it for me.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Say I want a $600 console I can save $100 per month while paying myself back within 6 months
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Once your credit score is good enough you'll get approved for "good" credit cards, then get benefits with them :) I don't make the most of my benefits, some people truly min/max the whole thing and get enough points for free flights + hotel etc... Takes time though, I'm not that serious about it.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    At a business perspective they can max at 20k within a month
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Once you get to about 750 you're fine -- I don't believe you get a better rate for car loans / mortgages if you have a score of 820 vs 750.
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Oh yeah if you have a business, or even just travel a lot for work, that will get you a ton of points lol
    As many companies get you to book your own travel then reimburse you
  • cearp @ cearp:
    Anyway - speaking of work, I need to get back to work :D Have a good day Ken + all other users

    I'd hate to have that much stress
