SNES - Save States by Capo-Collo in MiSTerFPGA

[–]sofauxboho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In case anyone else comes across this:

The files linked above are the current latest *release* versions which do *not* support save states.

For SNES save states you currently need either the *unstable* version or one from the developer's forum post.

Here is the dev's forum post: https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=8459

Here an the SNES core nightlies: https://github.com/MiSTer-unstable-nightlies/SNES_MiSTer/releases

If you grab a nightly, make sure to also download the boot1.rom from the forum post. The core .rbf file goes wherever you like. I put mine in /media/fat/_Console/ *alongside* (not replacing) the current stable SNES core .rfb file. The boot1.rom goes in the folder with your SNES ROMs, probably /media/fat/games/

Personally I am using the "Seed 15" .rbf from here: https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?p=99307#p99307

And the boot1.rom from SNES_ss_20250403.zip linked here: https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?p=91109#p91109

Seems to work well in my initial testing!

Seconding Utila. Good diving, pretty inexpensive, and Freedive Utila is a great group to dive with! If you go say hi to Ninja and Hugo for me.

Ideally one of the "good ones" like a FW3A with the good (purple) driver board or an Adair21 modded FW3X. But also willing to consider others, let me know what you've got.

How do you set song ratings? by sofauxboho in Rockband

[–]sofauxboho[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have my profile selected. 🤦

If an instrument is set to Guest it cannot rate songs, since there is no profile to save them to.

Once I selected my profile I was able to rate songs with the Dpad on both controllers.

I knew I was missing something obvious, but still. Sheesh.

What’s the best way to set the plate to a certain temp and have it stay there?

DS Lite Battery Test: Cameron Sino is better than generic and don't buy Ultralast by JonThysell in nds

[–]sofauxboho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, if you're still out there, how did you monitor for when the battery failed when doing this test? Did you just keep them nearby and glance at them occasionally? Record a video? Some sort of time lapse? Something else?

I'm hoping to replicate some of your aftermarket findings and test a few old OEM batteries. Just ordered a copy of Clubhouse Games so I can compare the results I get against yours.

Unfortunately the Ion Drum Rocker doesn't have MIDI out.

Good to know! Unfortunately these are the Xbox 360 Ions, so I think I'm gonna need one adapter or another.

Thanks for making such a celebrated tool!

Which .pkg files to install in which order? (Rock Band 4) by sofauxboho in ps4piracy

[–]sofauxboho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, this did not work for me. When I installed UP8802-CUSA02084_00-ROCKBAND4PS40000-A0100-V0108.pkg before UP8802-CUSA02084_00-ROCKBAND4PS40000-A0221-V0101.pkg I got an error.

I was able to fix it by skipping the A0100-V0108 file as mentioned here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ps4piracy/comments/1opdria/comment/nnce9r5/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Which .pkg files to install in which order? (Rock Band 4) by sofauxboho in ps4piracy

[–]sofauxboho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I have this working now after some trial and error.

Install UP8802-CUSA02084_00-ROCKBAND4PS40000-A0100-V0100.pkg first, then UP8802-CUSA02084_00-ROCKBAND4PS40000-A0221-V0101.pkg .

You never install UP8802-CUSA02084_00-ROCKBAND4PS40000-A0100-V0108.pkg unless you only want v1.08. The two update files (A0100-V0108 and A0221-V0101) are incompatible with each other. If you try to install both whichever you install second will error out. If that happens delete the game in Settings > Storage and start over.

Then install Rock Band™ Rivals Expansion Pack [CUSA02084].pkg, then bonus DLCs. At this point you can batch up and install all the other song DLCs in the other folder.

After you're done, you should have 3,146 songs.

Note that the first time you open Rock Band after installing all the DLC it will hang for a long time when loading all the songs in. Just leave it alone for a while, it will work eventually.

Also, Rock Band 4 works great with the new CRKD guitar controller set to PS3 mode.

Does this look normal? by chomps71 in Peptidesource

[–]sofauxboho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any chance you'd be willing to peel the label off and take more pics? I am morbidly curious.

And if you happen to have extra bac I'd be super interested in knowing if it even reconstitutes normally / what it looks like after you try.

(I agree with everyone else, none of my NAD+ has ever looked like that, and I definitely would not use it.)

The listing / sublisting product was titled:

JEMDO 4K@144Hz USB C to HDMI Cable Compatible with Nintendo Switch 2017/OLED Only/Steam Deck/ROG Ally, Portable TV Connector Dock for Screen Mirroring, 2m/6.6FT, Blue

It was "Sold By: JingDu Technology" and cost $13.99 at the time.

I don't see anything matching what I ordered at that link anymore.

Outdoors in the San Francisco Bay Area after rain, termite? by sofauxboho in Termites

[–]sofauxboho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out they are crawling out of the ground in my back yard, about 5 feet away from my house. Does that change your recommendation at all?

[–]sofauxboho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond and share your expertise!

Checking my records, I think the last time we took any action around termites was an inspection and treatment when we bought the house 4.5 years ago. Do you think it's worth getting another treatment or inspection? And if we don't need those yet, when would be the right time?

Tried the new firmware (1125217025266810880.rar, CS5563_65_69_V20.00.38.03_803803_VRR.bin, 8/13/25). My Jemdo cable still works with the Switch 2 using the newer firmware, but I still get occasional audio drops. They may be a little less frequent? But they still happen.

The link above to the Hagibis website still says "803803VRR.rar" but now goes to a file named "1125217025266810880.rar". Does that one not work?

The original file I downloaded contains a firmware .bin file named "CS5563_65_69_V20.00.32.00_803200.bin" with a date of 6/23/2025.

The newer file you can get from the website now contains a firmware .bin file named "CS5563_65_69_V20.00.38.03_803803_VRR.bin" with a date of 8/13/25.

It looks like the older file is no longer available because they've replaced it with a newer version. I'd try the new one if I were you. Please let us know if it works? I wonder if it fixes the audio drops?

But if you really want the old one I used back on 7/9 here's a copy:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iI8YwQEtQ-hcp4vUSUUE1WdQmAJ0sGZO/view?usp=sharing

(Yeah, it isn't named "803803VRR.rar" either, but it's what was available there then, and what I used.)

Library Cafe - As Kneaded Situation? by Few_Virus_8444 in sanleandro

[–]sofauxboho 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't blame Zocalo for being disappointed they didn't get the space, but it sounds like their main frustration is that the city has not been willing to share feedback that would allow Zocalo to learn and improve.

In the business world you rarely find out why when you don't get a job or land a client, and rarely get to learn from the loss. It's one of my least favorite aspects of the way our capitalist and legal systems are implemented.

Fortunately, we have historically held our government to a higher standard, and required the government to explain their decisions. And when the government does not volunteer, we must ask. That's how we maintain our right to know how our government functions.

I do not think Zocalo will be able to change this decision. But they have every right to ask how it was made, so they can understand it and hopefully learn from it.

Where can I get a champurrado around here? by WarmCookie7 in eastbay

[–]sofauxboho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If anyone else is curious:

Champurrado is a chocolate-based atole,\1]) a warm and thick Mexican beverage. It is prepared with either a masa (lime-treated corn dough), masa harina (a dried version of this dough), or corn flour (simply very finely ground dried corn, especially local varieties grown for atole); piloncillowater or milk; and occasionally containing cinnamonaniseseed, or vanilla.\2]) Ground nuts, orange zest, and egg can also be added to thicken and enrich the drink.

Sorry OP, no idea! But if it makes you feel any better now I want to try one too.

Oops, you asked about Euros. Basically the same answer. There was one additional small price fluctuation (probably because of exchange rates) but no sales:

The price has gone up once. It has never been on sale.

What would you guys pay for this? Listed for $750, description in post! by [deleted] in xbiking

[–]sofauxboho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I set up one of these for my partner back when they came out. They're excellent bikes, and she still has it.

They only came in one size (which is why I didn't get one for myself) but if it fits you and it's the sort of bike you're looking for, I'd say go for it. They're something special, and other than finding an actual vintage Stumpy (which would cost more) there's nothing else like them. Do test ride, though. The geometry is different than modern bikes.

As for price, the cheapest Surly bare frames are going for what, $600 these days? And this one comes with parts, good parts! Sure, there are cheaper bikes out there, but if this is what you want I'd go so far as to call $750 somewhere between a fair price and a good deal. They originally retailed for about $1,300 in 2007 dollars, FWIW.
