SeANMcBAY posted:Probably GameStop or online. Nintendo themselves sell refurbished ones but they’re out at the moment. They’ll probably have a few more later. People have already reported that they sent their switch in for repairs and got one back with a changed SoC that has an ipatch applied for the hardware exploit. So be careful with refurbished ones. That ipatch on older hardware is most likely what's hitting stores right about now, since the new chip model T214 (codename Mariko) that has the vulnerability fixed and all-around improved security isn't actually used in any switch models yet. They just applied a patch to all newly manufactured T210 models as soon as they got wind of the vulnerability, so, a couple months ago. Said patched models from a few months ago are just starting to actually get sold. So yea, if you're interested in homebrew in the future or even just want a convenient Emulation Tablet via linux with built-in controllers, you should probably get one now, even if you don't intend to do much with it yet. The moderately good news is that even those ipatched units entering the market now are old enough to still have firmware 4.1.0, which is still software exploitable via as-of-yet unreleased exploit. So even if you get an early version of those with the hardware exploit fixed, you can get CFW as long as you don't update. There's no telling how long it'll take for hardware-fixed models with current (5+) firmware to surface though.

My bad, was too focused on the console pertaining to my own interests rn. Still, it's probably good to know that Ninty isn't above just replacing your switch processor to keep you from hacking their stuff.

I recently got a 4.1 Switch but thought that was past the gamecard flash so may as well update and buy Hollow Knight. Guess I'll buy all the indies I want now and then turn off updates hoping for a 5.0 exploit at some point.

So I have a powered external ssd enclosure and a 120GB SSD, I know the Wii U won’t really benefit from that over usb but theoretically it should still work, right?

Yeah, that should work. The Wii U is limited to USB 2.0 speeds though, so the SSD is sort of a waste.

There was a new exploit the Reswitched team were holding on to to use when the new Switch revisions were released but the original discoverer of the Fusee Gelee exploit (the one everyone uses now) stole it and submitted it to Nintendo's bounty program so there goes that

She said she was discussing why NVIDIA's security is bad with them and used the exploit as an example, and they hadn't even heard of it yet Edit: was discussing with Google about security for the Pixel C and they told NVIDIA who told Nintendo Nonviolent J fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Jul 13, 2018 |

Nonviolent J posted:She said she was discussing why NVIDIA's security is bad with them and used the exploit as an example, and they hadn't even heard of it yet Kate is a professional. She's a hardware security consultant as her day job. Her work on the Tegra X1 bootrom exploit is probably the most well known, but her work is vendor agnostic. I totally believe that there was another Tegra vulnerability that SciresM/ReSwitched may have discovered and hinted about within their group and whether she probed it further on her own, or SciresM gave her exploit code, who knows, but somehow she learned of it. It's also easily the case that a company like Google hired her to consult on prototype Tegra Chromebook hardware or something--because Google builds those kinds of devices and need to ensure the underlying platform is secure--and as a consultant she raised a known vulnerability with them. It's not even a bug bounty thing. As a consultant, she has an ethical obligation to inform her clients of known vulnerabilities regardless of how she learns of them. The fundamental issue with homebrew hackers is that, while they present themselves as white-hats and don't promote piracy, they have an incentive to keep vulnerabilities secret, whereas security researchers have an ethical obligation for responsible disclosure. Those two things are simply at odds with each other. If ReSwitched wants to stop working with Kate because they can't trust her with secrets, then they may very well have to part ways. Unfortunately I'm sure she's now the subject of GBAtemp's wrath and vitriol which is really undeserved.

Yeah if there was an aspect to her professional life that necessitated the disclosure of a vulnerability, it is what it is and she did the right thing. I think all these exploits are cool and neat but I really think most folks are just mad because it’s harder for pirate games. Homebrew is a nice idea but we can all be real that it’s mostly about piracy.

That's definitely going to start being an issue. As devices use more mainstream components, there's going to be more scrutiny into how secure everything is. It's going to be harder to exploit than a chip that's only in this one Nintendo device.

Shared components are going to be more and more common so a problem with one becomes much bigger as far as sitting on exploits.

So apparently there have been major improvements to nds-bootstrap (DS games on 3DS via SD card) lately and a lot of games can run at full cart speed and they've been nailing out save (apparently WarioWare DIY is the only game that can't save, other than that no "donor carts" needed) and sound issues? Games less than 24 MB can just be loaded into RAM for even faster speeds and no sound issues? I was hoping for a breakthrough in this department and I think they're doing it, holy poo poo https://github.com/ahezard/nds-bootstrap/releases
