    *I misread this post as asking about PS3, please disregard this message.

    If you’d like to for fun, but I’ve been using RPCS3 to emulate it. Ofc it’s not the same as the console (i.e. you don’t have to navigate the internal menu) but the games still play the same. This amazing archive has every PS3 game in the universe, all for free.

    IMO the largest obstacles won’t be the console, but the discs and controllers. I haven’t checked recently, but I doubt these will be decreasing in price with time.




  • I wanted to upgrade my Ubuntu to a newer version, but I had to do it through the command line. During the upgrade it asked if I wanted to see the file changes or something, so I said yes for fun… I couldn’t get out of the menu, or rather I didn’t know how and seemed to be stuck halfway through the upgrade. I tried a bunch of keys and possible combinations including… Ctrl + X.

    So after quitting the terminal halfway through a system upgrade I tried to restore through backup. Turns out the backup was corrupted or something and didn’t work. I never realized because I never thought to test it. I lost a few years of photos and some music files that I’ve had probably for decades that I downloaded off Limewire. I still have the backup file in case it can be salvaged some day, but oh well. Most of the files I was able to download again off of the bay.
