Recently people are being really stingy with their speeds, nearly everything i download now is downloading around 100kbs as set by the user, is this a widespred thing, anyone know whats causing it?

not trying to sell anything here, genuinely.

started as "i want to match my spotify playlists against my local library and find out what i'm missing" and kind of snowballed from there. it does quite a bit now, full track matchiing with a tiered pipeline, discography gap analysis against musicbrainz, nicotine+ integration for queuing the missing stuff, last.fm discovery, a tagging/organisation workflow. runs entirely locally off a self-hosted database, no cloud, no accounts.

i'm probably not going to release it. it's fairly involved to set up, niche as hell, and not sure the support overhead would be worth it. but i keep fiding myself wondering if something like this existed and was properly polished, would you actually pay for it? free open source only? one-time purchase somewhere?

PS - to be clear, the integration to soulseek works via api, its not one of those apps that encourages leeching, would not have made it if it was, it just runs over the top of nicotine+.

PPs - this actually does a lot more than the video shows, a ton more

Not long ago, bought a samsung Frame TV to go with the aesthetic of my house, love the way it looks, if anyone has a samsung TV already they will know about the pain the os comes with.

So built an application for it which provides a free selfhosted version of their overpriced artmode, debload/de-telementry options but also built some native companion apps,

here is the project that runs them both - https://github.com/WB2024/SAWSUBE

here are the related native apps i built for it

Radarr (radarrzen) - https://github.com/WB2024/radarrzen
Sonarr (sonarrzen) -https://github.com/WB2024/Sonarrzen

There is already a decent tizen native jellyfin app

Worth checking out if anyone uses samsung tvs and want to add tv shows and movies to their radarr/sonarr, have it download then watch on their media server all from one device.

Cheers

MX 25.1, sysvinit, Xfce. Feishin just dies on startup with some d-bus garbage. Spent a while on it and its a few things stacking up: Chromium's sandbox pokes at systemd-logind when it starts and gets nothing back on a sysvinit system, which kills the process before the window even opens. Passwords also vanished every session because gnome-keyring isn't running on Xfce. MPV was leaving IPC sockets in /tmp aswell.

Fixed the relevant bits and made them conditional on whether systemd is actually present, so it wont change anything for people on normal setups. Detection is just checking for /run/systemd/private which only exists if systemd put it there.

Made a native build if anyone wants it: https://github.com/WB2024/MXfeishinSysinit/releases/tag/v1.11.0-sysvinit-1

.deb, AppImage and tar.xz. Based on upstream v1.11.0. Works here with PipeWire and MPV 0.40 going through a USB DAC. if you were hitting the same thing hopefully it saves you some time.

anyone else agree? I've written my own TUI based admin panel for the ee smart hub, dont really feel comfortable sharing it publicly, not yet at least, the project includes a full CLI suite and a beautiful TUI application.

So ive got a

Did this using devtools in firefox to inspect the requests Identified prtocols, reverse engineered the JS etc.

might share some screenshots and more info if there is enough interest

Loads more going on that i obviously cant share, if i made a public version and put on github, do you think that would be allowed by EE, would any of you actually use it? I made it to work alongside another project im working on which is essentially a wizard to setups simple to extremely complex home network setups and just thought why not

So as the title suggests, just unearthed my psp from storage after not using it since a couple of years since it was released.

I remember when the pandora battery & magic memory stick exploit first came out, was the first bit of hardware changes i ever did, me and my mate created a pandora battery and got custom firmware for the first time after trying everything we could to do it without the pandora battery as we were too poor to buy a new battery.

I understand its a piece of piss to use custom firmware on them now, is that right?

What else is new? didnt realize there was still a comunity for it, how, and why so?

if someone could fill me in on whats changed in terms of what can now be done with a psp that would be really appreciated!

Cheers

Posted an early version of this here and it got buried, but it's come a long way since then so worth a proper post.

x360tm is a mod manager for Xbox 360 that runs on your PC and talks to your console over FTP. You open it, it connects to Aurora, and from there you can browse and install pretty much anything directly to the box. No browser, no manually copying files, no figuring out where things are supposed to go.

I saw someone in the comments on the last post say that "terminal app" put people off because they thought it meant typing commands. It doesn't. You navigate with arrow keys and Enter, same as any menu driven thing. There are screenshots in the repo README if you want to see what it looks like before downloading.

Here's what it actually does at this point:

The content browser pulls from the Arisen Studio database and gives you 580 trainers, 70 game mods, 55 homebrew apps, pre-made saves, memory cheats and 133 title update patches all in one place. Everything is searchable and selecting something shows the full detail on the right before you install. You can also drop your own local files into the relevant folders and they show up alongside the database content and install the same way.

The library scan connects to your console, walks your game folders, matches your Title IDs against a list of 3000+ games and builds a My Library view. Every browser has a filter so you can cut it down to just content for games you actually have installed rather than scrolling through hundreds of entries looking for yours.

The repo ships with 550+ Aurora compatible trainer files already in it. You don't need to find them or download them separately, they're just there and install to the right folder automatically.

Transfer Games lets you point it at your local GOD folder, see what you have versus what's on the console, and push games across over FTP or directly to a USB drive.

ISO to GOD is also in there. Point it at a folder of ISOs, pick what you want, hit convert. It handles the conversion using iso2god-rs which downloads itself on first use, then the output goes straight to your GOD folder ready to transfer.

There's a torrent selector built in as well. Drop a torrent file into the Torrent folder, open it in the app and you get a full file tree showing everything inside. You tick the specific files you want, hit download, and it hands it off to a running qBittorrent instance with the right file priorities already set. Same thing as doing it manually through the qBittorrent GUI but without touching it.

The utilities section has an FTP file browser so you can navigate your console's full filesystem without leaving the app, and a tidy-up tool that scans your game folder over FTP, looks up the proper name for every Title ID it finds, shows you a full preview of what it's going to rename and to what format, then does all the renames on the console without copying or moving a single file. If your games are sat in folders named after their Title IDs with no readable name it sorts all of that out in one go.

The app also has a built in updater now. It checks for new versions on launch and either notifies you or handles the whole thing itself depending on what you've got set in settings.

No Python needed, no command line, nothing to install if you don't want to. On Windows you extract the zip and run the exe. On Linux there's an install script that drops it in your applications menu with the icon. Releases are on GitHub.

Happy to answer questions, and if anyone knows of trainer or mod sources I haven't pulled in yet let me know.

Pulls from the Arisen Studio database so everything's there – trainers, game mods, saves, homebrew, cheats, patches – searchable from a terminal UI and FTP'd straight across to the box. No browser, no manual transfers.

Aurora path handling is automatic so trainers land where they're supposed to without you having to figure it out. There's also a library scan that connects to your console, walks your game folders, matches Title IDs against a list of 3000+ games and gives you a "My Library" view – filters all the browsers down to just content for games you actually have installed. Saves scrolling through 580 trainers when you only care about five.

Runs on Windows, Linux, Mac. Python under the hood, Aurora on the console side for FTP.

here is the repo - https://github.com/WB2024/WBs360StudioTui

Created a GUI/Tui for Scrcpy,

it;

USB and Wi-Fi connections — you type the IP once, hit "Connect TCP", and it adb connects for you

6 display mode presets (normal, fullscreen, screen-off, borderless, high quality 1080p/8M, and a custom DPI mode)

FPS cap, bitrate, codec picker (H.264/H.265/AV1)

Named presets — save your usual setup, load it in one click

Health check tab that tells you instantly if adb isn't on PATH, device isn't connecting, port isn't reachable, etc.

Wake-lock and density changes are always cleaned up on exit, even if scrcpy crashes

Compiles to a standalone .exe via ps2exe — no PowerShell window, just double-click

There's also a full CLI version that takes parameters and supports the same preset system if you want to script it or bind it to a hotkey.
