are you turning it off or putting to sleep? just flipping the switch up puts the unit to sleep, holding it up turns it off

OK, got bored with the PSP.

Wipeout game has a download option to get extra crap. But there is nothing yet.

I thought that maby its a standard web browser.

So I looked in my proxy log to find out where it was going. Got the URL.

"http://ingame.scea.com/wipeout/"

Firefox got a 500 error (forbidden). Damn....

Whats the easyest way to block something? Restrict by user_agent!

Turned on the user_agent logger in my proxy server. Got the user_agent of the PSP.

"SCEJ PSP BROWSER 0102pspNavigator"

With a Firefox plugin I changed its user_agent to that.

Web site loaded.

Wait? Its a web browser? cool.gif

Made a DNS record (I run my own lookup server).

Redirected the URL DNS to my local box.

Put in my own index.html file.

Threw hyperlinks in the file.

Im now searching on Google through the PSP!

OMFG I am SO ****ed! I try to take care of my PSP by putting it in the case that they give you and it SCRATCHES my entire system! The inside lip is a little rough and it scrapes right across the system when you put it in and left a huge scratch right across the entire screen. I know it was the case cuz the scratch goes right along with the angle you put it in the case. Im am so upset it's not even funny. So much for me protecting it :-( Worst thing is EB doesn't have any more psp's so I can't return it yet. I called Sony and they said send it in but odds are they will say I did this and all it's gonna do it waste my time.

"and now something for your viewing torture... a pic of a broken PSP"

psp.jpg

Victim:

Keroro from Osaka Prefecture

Scene of Accident:

Children's room at home

Broken Item:

Sony Playstation Portable (PSP)

Details of Accident:

I was engrossed in playing "Ridge Racer" and, despite wanting to go to the toilet, had a go at a Time Attack battle. I held on as long as I could but, as they say, you can't beat nature so I dove into the toilet and did my business as quickly as possible. On the way back to my room, the tragedy occurred.

Being in a bit of a hurry, I had just tossed the PSP on the floor at the room entrance and, being the type not to look where I'm going, squashed it fair and square with my foot (when I came back). I remember there was a cracking sound. For a while, I couldn't take in the situation and just stared blankly at the PSP.

When my dad came home, I explained what had happened and he roared with laughter. It had only been 3 days since I received the PSP as a Xmas present.

Damage Amount:

About 12,000 yen. I used my new year's gift (o-toshidama) to get it repaired. It was about 1 month until it came back.

More from the Contributor:

Only the LCD was damaged so after it was replaced and adjusted that was it. You can't just leave things lying anywhere you feel like. Also, look where you're going!

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By Max Norris · Posted

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
