I just performed some “surgery” on my old PS1…
I ordered a RePSX power supply for my PS1 a few weeks back (and received it yesterday), as the stock one that’s in it gets pretty hot and is less efficient. I also ordered a 12V power adapter along with it. Details below! Package contents The RePSX board itself is packed in an anti-static bag.…

Mastodon setup challenges
A few weeks back, I set up my own Mastodon instance on a VPS. Normally, it’s not too difficult, but since I already had a LAMP stack running on it, there were more obstacles to get past! I had to ultimately use Apache as a reverse proxy instead of Nginx, as Mastodon recommends. Also, by…

I ordered a VPS some time ago.

It’s birthday time!
The post’s title explains it well enough, I’d wager. In case it doesn’t, yes, you guessed it, today’s not only my birthday, but others’ too, like Liz Mitchell’s (Boney M’s lead vocalist) or Christine McVie’s (Fleetwood Mac), for example.

One of the levels in Crash Bandicoot 2 is absolutely infuriating.
Long-time Crash Bandicoot fans will know what I’m referring to. Yes, Cold Hard Crash. The death route is a pain in the bum without a triple Aku Aku mask, and even then it’s a pain with all that darn slippery ice, especially when you’re trying to get both clear gems. Anyone else who agrees? Let…

I was stopped by a security guard at Tesco for the wrong reason.
Yesterday, I was shopping at Tesco. All was fine until I got to self checkout, as I always do. You see, our checkouts have the quantity option, which allows me to enter multiple pieces of a single item at once without having to call staff. Everything went normally, as it always does, except when I…
