Well, sorta.<\/p>\n
I kinda got locked into this post title [because I’m lazy] when I noticed that there was a new version of WordPress available. So I upgraded…and now I’m stuck with this title. Because I’d rather waste all these characters complaining about it than, y’know, click a few times and come up with a new title.<\/p>\n
Anyway….

\nSo, sometime last month, I ordered a bunch of stuff from DealExtreme. Again. Because my DS Lite’s hinge broke, and the touch screen hasn’t been calibrateable in…over a year now. And, while I was there, I decided to get a few other things that would let me do the sorts of things I’ve always wanted to do with my handhelds….<\/p>\n
Which is why I’ve had sorta-success. See, I haven’t actually gotten ’round to doing all the stuff I need to do to my DS yet, but I have<\/i> been playing, uh, homebrew [yeah, that’s it, homebrew] games on it with much more ease than I used to. Because I’ve got a different flashcart now.<\/p>\n
I was doing that last night. And, encouraged by that little success, I installed custom firmware on my PSP this morning. Really way easier than it sounds, if you’re smart enough to order a Pandora battery before getting yourself into a potential mess.<\/p>\n
Also, I recommend a great deal of reading up on the subject, not just so you know what you’re doing, but so you know which tutorial was written by a blithering fucking idiot<\/i> and which one was written by someone who not only knows what they’re doing, but can communicate it in a way that makes sense. Lots of the former, not many of the latter.<\/p>\n
…then I installed custom firmware on Gremlin’s PSP.<\/p>\n
Custom firmware is nice. Now I can watch movies without having to convert them into that obnoxious string of letters and numbers — that iPod video format works just fine! And I can play ROMs. And read pdfs. And stuff!<\/p>\n
…when I’m done experimenting, I’ll probably start ‘training’ for actually fixing my DS, since that really, really needs to be done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
