Once you had a modified battery, it was pretty easy to do more PSPs. I was able to purchase the battery later and just carry around the software on a memory card. Sold that as a service for a bit.

> just a TV working

I think to be considered a television, you still need to be able to receive OTA broadcasts. With modern digital television, that now means you need a H264 (H265, soon maybe) decoder.

I don't know if you can do that cheaper than a SoC, which makes adding "smartness" (even if it's bad) not that much more expensive.

> please let us know so we can uninstall and fork.

So he's letting them know

Pangolin VPS for forwarding and auth to stuff on my mini PCs. And then just a bunch of random vibe coded web UIs so I can access on my phone and such.

Host bitwarden and gitea which are useful too.

I think Bluetooth keyboards work fine? https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/keyboard-...

Original article does complain about headphones, but I don't think Sony uses Bluetooth for their Playstation 5 headphones either, just their Playstation Link ones that are custom USB 2.4Ghz like most other gaming headsets

The part replacement isn't being blocked? The OP's CM5 with replaced RAM is still a working CM5 according to him. And fully functional compared to before the replacement.

The N64 goes back to requiring mods for RGB SCART though. The later SNES models removed RGB support too.

Similarly later GameCube models removed support for component cables.

Is that just with software encoding? Or did hardware encoding get fixed?
