YouTube's automatic thumbnail picker really likes this Bully loading screen, apparently

Changing my desk again and realising a bunch of the cables and stuff cluttering up the back of my current one I havent needed or used in years

Me using the 2nd to last Wordle guess to rule out unused letters has lead to funny pattern drawings a few too many times

A random funny idea by a friend to try and compile my SCEE London tool for Android accidentally lead to me having to rewrite the handling of POSIX absolute paths because it turns out Google's Bionic libc behavior deviates a bunch from that in Linux/macOS 🙃

What does it say about me if I admit that whenever someone mentions Xcode, my immediate thought is always the Xbox BIOS bytecode language, and not the Apple SDK

You ever had to quote the official Latvian voice-over of The Simpsons for Wiktionary? I just did!

I notice this every time I play GTA IV, but why is one of the male NPC screams literally just Courage the Cowardly Dog screaming lmao

The bikers in GTA IV: The Lost and Damned just throwing the middle finger to everything might've been seen as cool in 2009 but today it feels so cheesy I can't lmfao

Šie smirdīgie smēķētāji visur liek man ilgt pēc sejas maskām

The CMOS battery has finally died in my 90k PS2, lol

Every time Ridge Racer Unbounded does this to me, I think of that "What successful rage bait looks like" image and it cracks me up

Redump eligible SSD? 🤔

Normally I always use OPL/SMB on my PS2 just to not wear out the drive laser, but I couldn't be bothered to get it working last night, which lead to me discovering this weird anomaly where my PS2 now apparently keeps violently crashing the OPU by the inner ring when shutting down, what

Tracked down an undumped and somewhat hard to come by release of a game and it's swiss cheese 😬

I wanted Split/Second's FSB music to have comprehensible filenames, which lead to me accidentally reimplementing almost the entire FMOD Event (FEV) system in vgmstream, whoops. You're welcome.

In the 90s there was a Latvian-Russian kids TV show I grew up with titled В гостях у Тофика (Visiting Tofik), which only aired in Russian. In the 2000s it had DVD releases which also had exclusive Baltic voiceovers. So I've dumped and uploaded them to Archive. (Also just higher quality than YT)

I keep seeing people post firmware keys for newer Sony PlayStation systems or whatever, but does anyone happen to have the RSA private exponent SCEE London Studio used to sign their SingStore DLC with the modulus 0xDD3CFCF8..D9425983 and public exponent 0x10001 to give out too 🥺👉👈

Happy fancy tree day i feel like deth

Over a year later, I've finally released an update to my SCEE London Studios PS3 PACKAGE tool, adding support for extracting SingStar's SingStore DLC, which are DRM protected using your PS3's unique Open PSID. I've also open sourced it with this, which many have asked for! github.com/EdnessP/scee...

I don't like the fact that I am now closer to 30 than I am to 20.

I always forget that GameStop also had an (admittedly pretty small) presence in Europe as well, I pretty much only ever saw it as an exclusively American brand.

Of the many solutions I've seen online to make wprintf properly print chars outside of the local codepage on Windows C programs, only _setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U16TEXT) seems to work. But what no one brings up afterward is that wprintf becomes line unbuffered, and there's just no way to fix that?

Why does Google Photos have no proper way to manage and mass-delete uploads? After I stopped using my Note9, it resumed syncing all my images (since it was now on Wi-Fi for the first time in eons) which I had disabled when Google took away unlimited storage in 2021.

Does it count if it's a page mostly written by me? Either way, it's gotta be the Burnout Dominator PS2 page. In some ways borderline depressing reading through this page again, just imagining what this game could've been but never was as a their last PS2 swan song title... tcrf.net/Burnout_Domi...

What did my phone case mean by this?

Bought a new SD card for my phone, and it came with a Windows System Volume Information directory from July 8, 2024. Thanks, Samsung! (and Microsoft, I guess...)

Just gotta hold out a little while longer for the new and better Simpsons tie-in game with the 2nd Simpsons Movie in 2027 🙏

Guess the Note9 has finally decided it's had enough of me, the case has slightly pried itself apart from the battery. So per a friend's suggestion, I got a Sony Xperia 1V, surprisingly a modern phone without a notch and a headphone jack. Kinda surprised I hadn't heard of these before.

Every time I see someone wearing a jacket by The North Face, I always think it's a staff member of Rīga public transport

Updated to Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC because I have no intentions on using Windows 11, and now WSL is completely borked :despair:

A 2nd Plextor drive has hit my Redumping PC

For those who weren't aware: On the night of September 12th to 13th, the only remaining outlet for XeNTaX, its Discord server, had been deleted. From the gathered info I've been told about, a rogue mod most likely did it. This is truly the end of an era.

Burnout Legends if it was good

TSG writers coming up with this line in 2007

prosche

Terrible news! One of the 10 Firefox windows I have constantly open with a billion tabs each has gone missing...

Got 64GB of RAM and it still ain't enough 😒

Discogs sellers when they deny money for no reason???

I knew DVD-RAM was a thing, but this is probably the first time I'm seeing one in person.

Just on another stroll looking for cool and unique undumped discs for the Redump project, and I casually stumble upon the source code for FIFA 96

How's so-obscure-it-might-as-well-be-lost media for ya? Growing up, I had this DVD of a show called Floc which was translated to Estonian (Pipp?), Latvian (Ūdens stāsts), Lithuanian (Sniegius), and Russian (Флок). (Estonian title might be wrong, that's just what's sung in the intro in place of Floc)

Why can I add multiple DHCP servers in one instance on Windows Server, but ADUC is limited to one domain per instance?

There is no digital release of the Hey Man Nice Shot (Big Mac Mix) which happens to be my favorite version of the song, so I may have put in a bit too much effort into cleaning up and creating a "proper" album cover from a scan of the single CD booklet cover for the FLAC

Rewatching some good old Mindcrack videos, and look who I see in the comments from 12 years ago.

Bart: Here's a hint: 🅱lick the 🅱lophins with your 🅱luddha 🅱land.

Don't think I ever posted this publicly, but a while ago I noticed that some of the ambience tracks in SpongeBob SquarePants: Lights, Camera, Pants! sample a recording of someone (presumably on their audio team) driving a lowrider car such as the Savanna in GTA: San Andreas, which is pretty funny.
