First time reading that word(?) or name (?).

Well. From a quick search this looks like a useless joke application. If you want to call a page full of intentional speeling errorrs funnnie. I have no idea what it does.

As for the question "Can it brick the 3DS?": That is an inherent problem with software modding consoles. Via exploits we get full access rights and can damage the OS, which we are not supposed to. Of course console malware is possible, but thankfully it does not (yet?) seem to be a widespread issue.

The source code does not look too complex or long.

I could run it on my test console.

hey guys, i just downloaded fefosheeo on my 3ds and im not sure if it can brick your 3ds and uninstall luma.
Fefosheep is not malicious. Its more of a 'joke program' for the 3DS. Just a bunch of print statements displaying random messages.

If you look into its code, you'll see it's just a bunch of calls to printf() (the print text function in c) in the most cursed delay implementation ever. You should sleep threads, not check the value of a variable that increments every frame. It also contains code to execute eShop's TID essentially being just a tool that displays delayed lolcat text (minecraft reference) before launching eshop.

after the final print message it redirects to the nintendo eshop

    @Xdqwerty HM...

    If the cat girl leaves, my kokoro dies a little.

    If I piss off the cat grill friend, I get no food and he's likely to grill me.

    There's just no winning here 😂

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @RedColoredStars, but what is the game about?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @RedColoredStars, Never heard of it. Any good?
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    You control a kitten. You fall out the window and have to make your way back home. Solve some light puzzles, do cat things like knock stuff over and steal things, trip people up when theyre walking, pounce on birds, complete goals/tasks etc. in the process of getting back to your home.

    @RedColoredStars, sounds kinda neat
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    @SylverReZ It's short but adorable imo. Im a HUGE cat lover.Can be completed in a couple of hours if just going for the main goals. But can be stretched out a good deal by exploring and doing everything there is to do and see.

    @RedColoredStars, Reminds me of a similar game called "Neko Atsume", similar to Nintendogs but you look after cats.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    So a man goes to the doctor because his boner wont go down. As he is laying in the hospital bed, with his thing propped up in the air, a fly is flying around and landing on the tip and bothering him, so he calls in the nurse. The nurse comes in, swats at the fly but can't quite reach it, so she climbs his boner to get better aim. After a few tries of swatting and sliding back down, she says sorry I cant get it. He says keep going, a few more tries, and I can shoot the fly down.
