I'm from Latvia, and I sometimes do stuff.
Normally I always use OPL/SMB on my PS2 just to not wear out the drive laser, but I couldn't be bothered to get it working last night, which lead to me discovering this weird anomaly where my PS2 now apparently keeps violently crashing the OPU by the inner ring when shutting down, what

Tracked down an undumped and somewhat hard to come by release of a game and it's swiss cheese 😬

I wanted Split/Second's FSB music to have comprehensible filenames, which lead to me accidentally reimplementing almost the entire FMOD Event (FEV) system in vgmstream, whoops. You're welcome.

In the 90s there was a Latvian-Russian kids TV show I grew up with titled В гостях у Тофика (Visiting Tofik), which only aired in Russian. In the 2000s it had DVD releases which also had exclusive Baltic voiceovers. So I've dumped and uploaded them to Archive. (Also just higher quality than YT)

I keep seeing people post firmware keys for newer Sony PlayStation systems or whatever, but does anyone happen to have the RSA private exponent SCEE London Studio used to sign their SingStore DLC with the modulus 0xDD3CFCF8..D9425983 and public exponent 0x10001 to give out too 🥺👉👈

Over a year later, I've finally released an update to my SCEE London Studios PS3 PACKAGE tool, adding support for extracting SingStar's SingStore DLC, which are DRM protected using your PS3's unique Open PSID.
I've also open sourced it with this, which many have asked for!

I always forget that GameStop also had an (admittedly pretty small) presence in Europe as well, I pretty much only ever saw it as an exclusively American brand.

Of the many solutions I've seen online to make wprintf properly print chars outside of the local codepage on Windows C programs, only _setmode(_fileno(stdout), _O_U16TEXT) seems to work.
But what no one brings up afterward is that wprintf becomes line unbuffered, and there's just no way to fix that?

Why does Google Photos have no proper way to manage and mass-delete uploads? After I stopped using my Note9, it resumed syncing all my images (since it was now on Wi-Fi for the first time in eons) which I had disabled when Google took away unlimited storage in 2021.

Does it count if it's a page mostly written by me?
Either way, it's gotta be the Burnout Dominator PS2 page. In some ways borderline depressing reading through this page again, just imagining what this game could've been but never was as a their last PS2 swan song title...

Bought a new SD card for my phone, and it came with a Windows System Volume Information directory from July 8, 2024. Thanks, Samsung! (and Microsoft, I guess...)

Just gotta hold out a little while longer for the new and better Simpsons tie-in game with the 2nd Simpsons Movie in 2027 🙏
Will Wright: Of course I can. I'm Will Wright, bitch! And pretty soon when there's a new better Simpsons video game than the one you're from, I'll destroy you, too. (LONG EVIL LAUGH)

Guess the Note9 has finally decided it's had enough of me, the case has slightly pried itself apart from the battery. So per a friend's suggestion, I got a Sony Xperia 1V, surprisingly a modern phone without a notch and a headphone jack. Kinda surprised I hadn't heard of these before.

For those who weren't aware: On the night of September 12th to 13th, the only remaining outlet for XeNTaX, its Discord server, had been deleted. From the gathered info I've been told about, a rogue mod most likely did it. This is truly the end of an era.
