  • Nice post. The ps3 is great fun if you like to tinker with this sort of thing, are on a budget, or even if you just want to relive some old games that never got ported to future gens.

    I picked an original phat model for $20 a few years ago. It came with a 60 gb hdd which I replaced with a 320gb hdd I had laying around that would otherwise just collect dust due to it’s miniscule size. The console made a ton of noise and would get really hot, the thermal compound was completely siezed due to it’s age and heavy work load, so I replaced it with some fresh mx4 and gave the console a good cleaning. I installed Rebug and set the minimum fan speed to 60%, it’s still loud but it doesn’t get hot anymore. Once that was all done I loaded up a 2tb external drive with my favorite games from that generation.

    To be honest, I had a lot of fun jailbreaking and tinkering with it, but I can count on one hand how many times I’ve gamed on it since. I should probably give it to someone who will get more use out of it lol.

    In Windows certain words are reserved for system use. When naming files and directories, you are unable to use these words. Con, being short for “console”, is one of these words. Con is also the Spanish word for “with”, so a Spanish speaking user could not, for example, have a directory called “Fotos con Jim”.



  • Yeah this would be possible. You would need to be diligent with backups if you planned on adding mods as the playthrough progresses, as adding mods to an existing save can cause unpredictable behavior.

    An easier to manage idea would be to pick a suitable mod pack and play that. I’ve been hosting a Valhelsia 3 server for my friends and I for a couple weeks and it has been a lot of fun. Valhelsia 3 has all the mods you mentioned aside from Ad Astra. Valhelsia 5 has all of them. There are tons of other packs you could play too. I prefer to play packs that are based on 1.16.5 and before as the performance is significantly better than anything that came after.



  • Up and down I guess. My wife’s aunt passed away and she took it pretty hard. I try to just be there for her because I know in this case there’s nothing else I can do but I hate to see her so upset. It’s been a few days and she seems to be processing it well.

    I’m also in the middle of a terrible IBS flare up. I would like to see a doctor about this finally, but being a young, otherwise healthy guy, I don’t have care established with a doctor’s office and getting an appointment is proving to be a challenge.

    On a more positive note we celebrated our one year wedding anniversary. Had a nice lunch together, walked our dog through the local arboretum, and opened a left over bottle of rye whiskey from the wedding to make old fashioneds (one of the drinks we had at the wedding). We will wait till our five year to open the bottle again.

    My wife, some friends and I wanted to play some modded Minecraft so I setup a Valhelsia 3 server for us. It’s been a lot of fun so far, none of us have had fun with this game in years, so it has been nice to play again.
