PS3 Disc Dumper
A handy utility to make decrypted PS3 disc dumps
PS3 Disc Dumper is an open-source utility for creating decrypted copies of PlayStation 3 game discs. It helps users extract disc contents into a format suitable for use with compatible emulators, including RPCS3. The application requires a compatible Blu-ray drive capable of reading PlayStation 3 discs. Decryption relies on matching disc keys available through the Redump database, IRD Library, or user-provided files. Users can launch the application, insert a supported disc, and follow the guided dumping process. Extracted files are saved to a configurable output directory. The utility also provides settings for custom decryption keys, local key caching, and diagnostic logs. Built with .NET and Avalonia UI, it supports Windows and Linux environments. -

Xubuntu Data Recovery Pack
HDDLive — a data-recovery live ISO (Xubuntu 24.04 + OpenSuperClone)
HDDLive — a data-recovery live ISO (Xubuntu 24.04 + OpenSuperClone) HDDLive is a rescue live system (it boots from a USB stick or DVD, runs from RAM and does not install anything on the computer) whose only job is to get data off failing or damaged storage devices safely. It is plain Xubuntu 24.04 with its installer and consumer software removed, a recent kernel (7.0), and a curated, pre-configured toolbox for the whole recovery workflow: diagnose the drive → clone it first → recover files from the clone → open RAID/encrypted volumes → analyze images → repair only on a copy. The desktop is organized in that order, and every tool has a launcher or a cheat sheet. The central piece is OpenSuperClone — an open-source (GPLv2) fork of HDDSuperClone, a cloning tool made specifically for drives with bad sectors, with direct AHCI/IDE/USB access and a virtual disk mode — together with GNU ddrescue and the usual recovery suites. -

flash
Command line script to flash SD card images of any kind
Command line script to flash SD card images of any kind. Note that for some devices (e.g. Raspberry Pi), at the end of the flashing process the tool tries to customize the SD card e.g. it configures a hostname or WiFi. And with a cloud-init enabled image you can do much more like adding users, SSH keys etc. -
