Adding a Hard Drive to My PS2

Adding a Hard Drive to My PS2

I always kind of debate on whether project posts like this should go here or on Blogging Intensifies. On one hand, it's a Video Game related post and project. On the other hand, It's also kind of an electronics and technology-based project. This one, ended up here. One of my "on the list" projects has been to upgrade some of my old consoles. Two specifically, at least initially, are the PS2, and the Wii. The Playstation 2 was always a favorite of mine, though considering how much it sold it was probably a lot of people's favorite. I played mine…

Code Project – HTML/CSS – Free Code Camp Responsive Web Design

I have a huge pile of online courses bookmarked that I would like to run through. This does have some pitfalls, maybe I'll get to that another day. Today I want to discuss one I finished. The FreeCodeCamp Responsive Web Design course. You get a little certification for completing these, which mostly just bolsters the part of me that, doesn't really find much value in certifications. I didn't really need to take this course, but it's part of the basic "core list" on FreeCodeCamp's website, and my obsessive completionism mind says I should do those, in addition to anything else…

Code Project – Python – Goodreads RSS to HTML

I already have my Letterboxed watches set up to syndicate here, to this blog, for archival purposes mostly. When I log a movie in Letterboxed, a plug-in catches it from the RSS feed and makes a post. This is done using a plug-in called "RSS Importer" They aren't the prettiest posts, I may look into adjusting the formatting with some CSS, but they are there. I really want to do the same for my Goodreads reading. Goodreads lists all have an RSS feed, so reason would have it that I could simply, put that feed into RSS Importer and have…

Arduboy FX

I recently picked up a neat little device called an Arduboy FX. It was a bit of an impulse buy after someone posted about getting one on Threads. It turns out it's not actually particularly new, the community goes back quite a few years, but it's still pretty cool none the less, and I am happy with my experience with it. So what is it? It's a small credit card sized handheld based on the Arduino. On a related note, it's "credit card sized" in footprint, not so much in thickness. I wouldn't trust putting this in a wallet at…

Code Project – Python – Fresh RSS to WordPress Digest V2

A while back, I talked about a little simple project that I build that produces a daily RSS digest post on this blog. This of course broke when my RSS Reader died on me. I managed to get Fresh RSS up and running again in Docker, and I've been slowly recovering my feeds, which is incredibly slow and tedious to do because there are a shitload of feeds, and i essentially have to cut and paste each URL into FreshRSS, and select the category and half the time they don't work, so I need to make a note of it…
