I know things have changed since I last did an RGH setup, which is probably where the confusion comes from; things are changing even though the scene was most active 10+ years ago.

I imagine you don’t need a NAND flasher now that ABadAvatar exists, but I could be mistaken. The process used to be, at a really high level: solder the NAND flasher/dumper, dump the original NAND, solder the RGH timer, then flash a NAND with a good timing profile for that console.

If you want a mod that persists, you’d need to do a hardware modification called the RGH exploit. It’s doable on an Xbox 360 S, but you need decent re-soldering skills to pull it off. I haven’t done it in years, but it sounds like ABadAvatar could make the process a lot easier than it used to be.

Halo 3 ODST also has cross-platform campaign, so if your friend who was missing it gets it, it should work for everyone.

That’s a first for Nintendo consoles. Not a good first, but still a first.

I was introduced to it around 2010 and I thought it looked mid. I then finally tried it in 2012 and it played exactly how I expected it to, which, in my opinion was not very well at all. I like Morrowind and Skyrim, though.

Get ready, this one’s sure to ruffle some feathers:

• BioShock
• Oblivion
• Any hero shooter
• R.E.P.O.
• Most overhaul mods for Halo games

Edit: typo Edit 2: I’m adding more based on what other people have said

• Breath of the Wild
• RDR 2
• Super Mario Odyssey

I used Kdenlive quite a bit. If you’re not doing anything professional or don’t have TONS of edits over 30+ minutes, it should do the trick. The reason I say this because sometimes when I have spoken audio cut frequently, the first half a second has a weird blip at the beginning of it. Sometimes they show up in the rendered video, sometimes they only show up in the preview. It’s annoying as hell to go back and try to fix.

There’s also Blender’s video editor, but, man, it has a steep learning curve, at least, for me it did.

I’m glad I got one for one my friend’s birthday. Given the price of computer parts, I figured it was only a matter of time before that either went out of stock or skyrocketed in price.

I did. That’s my opinion, most people won’t care I care, but most people don’t.

They absolutely have their users by the balls and I guarantee most people will continue to use the app after this, unfortunately.

Top one is the power brick for the Xbox One (the original, VCR-looking one) and the bottom one is the Steam Link.

On a less related meme

I would play matchmaking in Halo MCC more if the game wasn’t filled with cheaters. At least when I host custom games, I can ban them and move on.

In short: no, because they were already doing this.

And a lot of spare time.

I’m sorry, they got rid of what?

Because that’s just unforgivable. /s

When I read the title, I assumed this was an overreaction to a stink-bomb prank, and then I read how long he’d been doing this for:

For those curious what “adblockers said really happened”:

[AdGuard] suggested that the issue may have been linked to popular community-maintained filter lists like EasyList and uBlock’s Quick Fixes.

A new filter rule added to EasyList on August 11, 2025 targeted telemetry requests thought to be tied to YouTube’s view attribution and analytics.

That rule remained in place until September 10, when it was temporarily disabled.

A similar change was added to uBlock’s Quick Fixes on September 10 and removed on September 17.
