How to Turn a PlayStation 3 Into a Linux PC
MahariBalzitch writes "Popular Mechanics shows step by step guide on how to install Ubuntu Linux on a PlayStation 3 and still keep the PS3 gaming functionality. Now I just need to get my hands on a PS3." Not bad specs for the price, either, since Blu-Ray players still aren't cheap. And though the article calls the procedure "somewhat complicated," it's a lot simpler than was installing Linux from floppies not so many years ago.
"It's sad to see that this is what has become of PopMech." Oh come on now. What about that "How to Convert your Vacuum Cleaner into a Fully Automatic Rifle" article? That wasn't so bad was it?
Thank god I'm not the only one who finds spelling errors a complete turn off when fapping to dirty stories. That and un-needed product placement. I'm talking to you, Astroglide!
Install Ubuntu's openssl build.
The timing of this could not be more perfect. I work in a grocery store, which (unsurprisingly) is where I do all of my grocery shopping. I've been there for 5 years, but just yesterday, for the very first time ever, I got a ride to work (I normally walk).
Who gave me a ride? The guy driving the truck with all the stuff that I was going to unload and stock. He saw me on the sidewalk and pulled over.
Technically, I did not use an 18 wheeler for grocery shopping, but I *did* use one to go to the store once.
You can grocery shop with an 18 wheeler just fine. You just have to put the tiny tires on.
The salmon mousse!
