People being shady and greedy over these consoles.

Inquired about a RP6 on marketplace, seller had it up for $400 We agreed on the price, told her I was coming to get it after work, 10 minutes later she reposts it with a $150 price increase and ignores me. 🤣 Like really.. We had a deal, she compared ebay prices and backed out of the deal...What she doesnt realize is that ebay takes 14% plus she gonna have to pay for shipping if anybody did buy it for that stupid price. In the end she should have took the 400 cash I was bringing her 🤣 she already had it posted over a week on marketplace for the $400 and nobody bought it then, so now she can wait on this mythical $550 buyer some more... 🤣

Was gonna pull the trigger on RP6 black sticktop on aliexpress US Seller, added it to cart, it said 1 left in stock, went to check out, card failed, went back to cart price had increased by $70... 🤣 What a joke. All the other colors remained the same price.

Launchbox hung up during "Refreshing local metadata from Launchbox Games Database"

Never completes this process, I have restarted my PC Unplugged my router for a hard reset, still does it. I cant stop the process or I just get a spinny circle. Cant update it manually because I cant stop the automatic process.

This looks promising...

Not gonna lie I kind love the idea of this as a portable controller to connect to your tablets, phones, and of course the whole bunch of handhelds we have which have larger screens worthy of propping up with a kickstand somewhere while you're out and about. I could visualize a D Brand Killswitch style cover for it to protect the sticks in a backpack. Potential.

How do I move the install folder back to where I had it?

I have vita3k as one of the emulators on my launchbox build on my main PC. I had heard there was a cool gui update today so I fired up launchbox, opened Vita3k and updated it. But rather than updating my existing vita3k folder which is in my launchbox, emulators folder it installed vita 3k to a new folder on my main C Drive. My launchbox build is made to be completely portable so that all the emulators on it are installed in the launchbox folder. This now means when I try to launch a vita game from launchbox it does not work because none of the games are installed in the new vita3k folder the update created. What I need to know now is how do I go back to vita3k being installed where I want it? And is this how the updates are going to work moving forward? Is this emulator no longer portable?

It took me 3 sundays just to polish the sides of my FJ. And I mean like a couple of those were full 8 hour days... 🤣 granted I was doing a lot of other work too like cerakoting the trim, cleaning the wheels, installing mirrors, removing water spots from the side glass ect ect. But there is a certain satisfaction that comes with doing this kind of work yourself. I didnt touch the hood or roof because those are getting raptor lined in the not so distant future. This paint is far from pristine but I feel like I bought myself a few more years at the very least and she looks pretty good for her age. Polished with chemical guys compounds and finished with suds lab ceramic sealer. Nothing fancy, just cheaper detailing products that are fairly easy for an amateur to use.

Last time I had an Ally I opted for the cheaper Jseaux knockoff case. This time I opted in for the killswitch and I gotta say the difference is massive. I'm sure I am preaching to the choir here but for anyone on the fence. This is it man just do it. The texture of the case alone is worth it and the quality is top tier. It made the Ally feel beefier, more like a steamdeck and I was elated to install the skin but seeing it now I'm glad I did. Big ole thumb grips are good too.

Found a switch lite for $50 in a pawnshop, so what else would I do but spend more money on it before I put it on my shelf and never play it. 🫠 New Shell, Buttons, Hall Sticks, Screen and Digitizer. No hard mods just a new cost of paint basically. There are many reasons I shouldnt have built this thing and only 1 reason I did, I was bored I guess 🤷

I had an original Z1E last year but sold it just due to losing interest in handhelds. But now I got the itch again, picked up the Ally X lightly used, still had a D Brand Screen Protector left over from my old Ally so I slapped that on and ordered a killswitch for it. Any recommendations for decent bluetooth earbuds that dont have a terrible audio delay or break the bank? And what carry case works with the killswitch on that has an accessory pocket?
