What does homebrew enable? I’m completely out of the loop on all things Vita.
Also, do the microSD memory card adapters work? I see some advertised online. I recall Vita memory card prices being a constant complaint.
Also interested in the answers to these!
Hacking enables the obvious things you’d expect, like:
Open source ports like DOOM,quake and even AM2R
Cartridge backup to SD card
Over and underclocking
File managers, FTP support etc
Some of the cooler things it enables are:
Resolution increase in some games at seemingly no detriment
Resolution decrease in others ( for higher fps)
Sd2vita adapters that allow you to use an ad card in the game slot or even inplace of the 3G module
USB drive support on vita TV
And possibly my favorite change is the custom PSP firmware that allows you to properly scale games and even let’s you use a scanline filter that looks like the original PSP screen.
The sd2vita adapters work great but you can’t backup your own gamecarts and use them at the same time which is a hassle.

Okay I’m sold!
At this point the xploits are a few FW’s back but theres an exploit on it’s way for the newest version so I’d hold tight
Mine hasn’t been updated in several years, how far back do you think it needs to be thereabouts?
Iirc 3.65 and below can be exploited

On mobile and enjoying a Friday after work pint, so not inclined to start it, but I suggest a PVM/BVM in tv/film thread. Old X-files is on in the pub and T-1000 (that’s his real name) is looking at gun tool marks on a Sony PVM in the FBI gun lab.

Relaxing summer weekend here and life is good 
Just had a random 60 degree day and tomorrow it’s going to snow again here.
For me I’m fine with it either way but like it a little colder. I run my AC even during the winter.
Potty training this weekend. No TV, no phones, no screens until the little one is in bed. Gonna be an interesting weekend for sure.
I figured you’d be potty trained by now. You better not wet the bed next weekend !
So I bought a brand new CRT monitor for $50, it’s an AOC 17”. It arrived today but can’t test it until tomorrow afternoon gah!
Brand new crt in 2019? Wild
I know right! They had it on in the picture to test it but they said it was otherwise unused. It even shipped in its original box. It’s not super fancy like some of these Sony ones I’ve been eyeing up with BNC but I’d figure brand new for any brand should be pretty nice!
Who has more crts at this point ? Me or you ?
How many do you have? I think I only have 6.
Pfffft
I’m at 11.

Lol
6 here too!
No PVMs though, I’ve got a couple Sony consumer CRTs, 3 Commodore monitors, and a huge 21" Trinitron PC Monitor.
