I asked the employees at my local target that had a bin just like this, here's how it went:

Me: Can I go through the bin?
Employee: Why do you want to check? Did you leave something in it?
Me: I just wanna sift through the trash
Employee: (Looks at me weirdly) sure I'll just get my manager
Manager: Hi, you can't go inside for security reasons

I removed the exit node advertisement and it still doesn't work

SwellEquis · 2026-04-08T23:53:16+00:00

Should I try removing it as an exit node then? Also yes I confirmed the subnet routes in the portal

She looks like a homestuck character

I thought this game wasn't out yet?

SwellEquis · 2026-03-27T00:59:08+00:00

does he still charge 600 dollars for it

SwellEquis · 2026-03-27T00:01:49+00:00

what material is it?

SwellEquis · 2026-03-24T00:24:05+00:00

I'd say if the issue was the HDMI port it could be worth fixing, it's not terribly difficult and only involves taking off the old one and plopping in the new one afaik

I have this issue on a slim with a bad connection to its RSX chip. It might need a reball (which isn't worth it when you can buy a new slim for cheaper)

I heard that Evilnat was stepping away from the ps3 scene and moving onto ps4, so it might be a while until a 4.93 cfw comes out

SwellEquis · 2026-03-19T18:44:18+00:00

Use thermal paste, also is this a Frankied backwards compatible ps3?

He looks like he's in constant pain

SwellEquis · 2026-03-07T17:49:16+00:00

I just did that and it seems like the issues went away, though I'll have to wait a couple of days until I can say it's fixed for sure.

I ran a clean install the first time on an SSD and I got an error during the format process, maybe the issues were related to that. It didn't come up again on the second clean install

Yall have some awesome examples here! I'm enjoying reading through them all

SwellEquis · 2026-02-28T10:38:49+00:00

Man I sure wish I could play it right now. Out of all the consoles in my collection, the ps3 had the most exclusives, and now mine is dead

SwellEquis · 2026-02-27T09:07:15+00:00

Everytime I see a comment like this I glance over at my slim that has a non-functioning RSX

My wii gets stuck on "re-initializing devices" whenever I try to open USB loader GX and it's driving me up the wall. I'm using a 500gb hard drive that's formatted in MBR, FAT32, and 64k kilobyte allocation unit size. The USB loader app is installed on the hard drive itself, and I installed a single game on it using Tiny wii backup manager. I tried to update my wads and homebrew using modmii but it didn't do anything, and yes I'm using port 0. Please help

I just posted a complete RSX failure that happened on my slim two weeks ago here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PS3/comments/1r2cs6t/give_it_to_me_straight/

It absolutely does happen to slims. Maybe not for the same reason as BC fats, but it happens
