Man, I gotta stop vibe coding. But you can't argue with the results. The bland, boring, yet functional results for all my dumb ideas. But also this ai trash doesn't seem to be going anywhere so i'll embrace the chaos, but still feel weird uploading vibe'ed projects. so probs wont...

Awesome, I think I found where the magic smoke lives.

After the community interest with my unfinished xbox discord thingy, I really need to put out more projects. You know, the stuff that's 80% done but you got stuck or got ADHD distracted on something else. github.com/MobCat/xbdm.py

Did you know your ps4 keeps a log of when it was turned on and off, and how it was turned on with the button or with the controller... just as a plain text file on the hdd.. /system_data/priv/vshlog/vshlog.0.txt It triggers my adhd how much stuff is here just in sqlite dbs or plain text..

Send to PS4 (Runs a bat script with some configs, that then runs the direct package installer passing %~1 to it) genius 😎

Got distracted. Wow... they did not lock this down.. like at all. (quick google after I noodled around in the ps4s brain on my own says yes this is a well known thing) You just edit one sqlite db and it just accepts the new changes as fact, no checks at all. Hoping there are checks for uploading...

There's nothing to eat!

With everybody being on @discord.com and the emergence of services like @insignia.live for the Original Xbox, why not have Discord Presence? I'm not the first one to think of this, but I did manage to make a really simple shortcut.xbe that does the heavy lifting and uses @mobcat.zip's API :)

Writing libraries sucks. idk if my code is broken, or I found a bug... I don't trust my self so I always think it's me, but I double triple checked... But I also barely understand what I'm even doing half the time.

Picking on your little brother in 2010 be like.

lol working at this level of the xbox with little to no docs is "fun".. This first one sends a notification, the 2nd one turns off the console... oops...

One of those mornings. I more or less understand regex, it always just feels like a shitty hack to fix or find strings. Like this is *kinda* ini data, but not really as there are more then one var on a line. so yep, chuck it at regex and let it handle it.

One of these consoles is not like the others 🤔

My autistic ass could never understand the stupid math behind how to convert binary. So I made a counter out of switches that's easier to explain and understand. mobcat.zip/BinCnt/

i'm eepy, i'm not going to do this "correctly".

space is your only enemy

So just for fun I tried to xdvdfs pack an xbox 360 redump into an xiso and it appears to work fine lol. sucks I can't find an attacher.xex like we have on the og xbox. would be a neat alternative to GoD. I still may just end up GoD'ing everything in end though idk. still new to this...

At what point do you stop collecting data? I think 15% success rate for of BadUpdate on this falcon is statistically accurate now...
