"Well if ya wanna hear my opinion..."
Better name pending. Probably. If you can think of anything better, then suggest it. Give your own ten cents. Or two. Or negative 3.
2 days ago, I thought "Hey. There's stuff going on now that I can humor! What if I made a blog about it?"
So...I'll be making these blog posts every week or two. Each one will humor current events in the community and feature some art in the same style as my current pfp; cute-ish crayon drawings made in microsoft paint.
So here's my ten cents. Stay a while, because I can guarantee a chuckle or two.
On the 23rd of April, we got a huge torrent of Switch hack releases ranging from Fusee to ShofEL2 (edit: fixed spelling).
Notably, we got the dirt about RCM mode.
For those who don't know, jamming crap down the right Switch rail makes it do funny things.
There was the short-lived trend of bending Joy-Con pins to jump two pins to trigger RCM mode. I'll admit some neat things came out of it, like reed switches and actual switches being integrated into the right Joy-Con.
The switch to switch your switch.
A few guys advertised that they do tiny bending. Take that, Mr. Tiny Soldering guy. Your searing hot metal sticks can't compare to our room-temperature metal tweezers!
After bentpinhax came the RCM jig craze. Prospectors all over America were doing weird dances and...wait. wrong script.
People were 3d-printing little inserts to jam down their rails to pull pin 10 to ground. Then came the paperclips, followed by wires, screwdrivers, and in some cases tin foil.
It was a...unique... sight to behold.
Men, women, and children all over America were raiding offices, break rooms, classrooms, and kitchens to find paperclips wires and tinfoil to jam into their game consoles to make them do things they shouldn't normally do.
...It was the pinnacle of science, folks. THE VERY FREAKIN BEST.
After the "jam random crap down your rails like a nut" fad died down, we got a beta release for the SwitchBru DNS! Version 4.0.0, which adds friends and messaging and more! It's how I'm typing this blog!
We also got some retaliation from Nintendo.

Many users were hit with this new "Super Nag" as @Stercate79 dubbed it.
Super Nag is FAR WORSE than normal nags.
lol super nag sounds like a superhero whose power is to nag people to do their bidding

I think I set the text back wrong... test...iddjsk....shxhksjs--Ah there we go. Probably.
Now the super nag prevents you from using the browser applets. It nags you about updating if you try to use them.
Luckilly, ReSwitched is trying to combat the issue!
...Part of me imagines this as ScriesM and some Nintendo engineer fighting each other with Joy-Con lightsabers. (Sorry if I spelled it wrong!)

In reality, it's probaby gonna beReSwitched making a giant fucking robot out of RCM jigs and Labo parts to fight a 3-headed Joy-Con Dog robot Hades a Fusee payload or something.
Well, that's my ten cents.
If you enjoyed this, tell me! I'd be happy to make more!
