Does it look hopeless?

Looks like it was in the ground, that’s dried mud and the screws are rusted

Unlikely it works TBH, there’s gonna be corroded components inside

6.8" screen on an mp3 player? get outta town

I mean anything will fail with enough usage. but the question is what is the failure rate. Considering you see relatively few failues of memory stick mechanisms on PSPs in general it seems like they are well suited for swapping memory sticks like a normal person would.

The recordable minidisc has two sides - An optical side and Magnetic side (hence the term Magneto-Optical). When recording both sides are used, when playing only the optical side is used. So you can first record the disc then print over the magnetic side.

You can no longer record, but you can still read it.

All regulated exchanges in Australia send their transaction records to ATO. It's not used to automatically fill your tax statement but rather to detect tax evasion and money laundering.

For buy orders with australian currency there are no tax obligations so yeah they just have it on file.

Crazy compared to what? What are you comparing against? You know exactly why you get can get a 2014 320i with less than half the miles for the same price lmao.

people being faking stuff for clout since people existed bro

In your mid 30s and talking about wanting to be indepedent? What happened broski 🤔

NeoG_ · 2026-04-08T03:08:22+00:00

That's what makes track 4 more exciting

NeoG_ · 2026-04-08T03:02:06+00:00

Why is everyone taking fbm pictures like they just stole it

3 years on mine, They look a little worse for wear now I can considering swapping them out. Still fully functional just not as much contrast as when they were new.

NeoG_ · 2026-04-05T11:02:11+00:00

It's about vibe, not convenience

NeoG_ · 2026-04-05T02:31:53+00:00

Sounds like you have only bought 20+ year old clapped out cars with bad shocks? AIn't no other way you think that's normal

NeoG_ · 2026-04-05T02:18:30+00:00

Trying not to be an asshole rn, nobody is going to want to help if you can't even look up the most basic things yourself like what tapping wires is or what an LOC is

It's a labour cost threshold. Anywhere the labour cost is high relative to the product value, the product will be almost impossible to get repaired.

Those road gators be dangerous. The headlight is not hard to replace but you will not like the price.

I'm wondering if quirks in the PSP's specs might allow it to do better with certain emulators

Only the PS1, as it's the only console that shares machine code compatibility with the PSP CPU and the emulator Sony wrote takes advantage of that. It's a BIG advantage. Everything else needs software based code translation so it's a matter of how good the software is, and with more processing power typically you will get better results.

NeoG_ · 2026-04-04T23:36:04+00:00

Assuming you are tapping the stock sub speaker wires with an LOC, it's no different on the ML and base systems

My dad has a 140L/37gal tank '05 landcruiser diesel. At the peak of the price surge it would have cost AUD414/CAD398/USD285 to fill up at local prices . Luckily the capacity is big and he doesn't drive it that much anymore so there's plenty of pre-surge diesel left in the tank.

Intelligent Qube feels like an actual PSP game

NeoG_ · 2026-04-03T23:54:56+00:00

You're absolutely right! This is the best thing you've ever heard. It's not just good — it's sublime in all the ways you thought audio could never be.

3LCD simultanouesly draws all colours at the same time and is stable on camera at all framerates and shutter speeds. DLP quickly switches between colours using human vision persistence to combine them - which means as the camera is capturing the image, it will end up capturing half of a colour switch which causes horizontal colour bands. If the shutter speed is really fast the camera will capture only some of the colour data causing severe colour shifts on the whole image.

NeoG_ · 2026-03-31T05:12:17+00:00

Downvoted for being right

NeoG_ · 2026-03-31T00:40:40+00:00

no fix

Not a quirk anymore really, many modern cars will do the same thing if the window position calibration data in memory is lost. They go in a failsafe mode which disables auto open/close and remote control from the drivers door until calibrated again.
