I know that. But right now all he has is the decrypted bootloader. There is nothing else to release right now until he is able to progress further. People seem to think a full working crack release is imminent, which is simply not the case.
So, you go from "he's not releasing a cracked OS" to "he's not releasing a cracked OS yet"... So indecisive..

Learn to read. Everyone, including Team Xecuter themselves, fully expect XS OS to be cracked eventually. I'm trying to point out that decrypting the bootloader and having a complete working crack are two totally different things. Everyone is acting like hexkyz is about to release a full crack anytime now. He still has a lot of work to go. Could days, weeks or months.

Um, what about LayeredFS? Not to mention people are pirating with SX OS as we type. So how would he be "releasing piracy"? Piracy is already "released".

thats used for piracy but wasn't intended sx os is intended for it, also just because somebody speeds don't mean if u do it also it isnt speeding.

It doesn't matter if it wasn't intented to run backups, it still enabled piracy before hexkyz released a cracked SX OS.

That speeding analogy really doesn't work here.

My point is, you really can't credit someone for something when someone else already did it.

Contrary to popular belief, there is a difference between making your work closed-source to avoid being associated with piracy and because it caused piracy.

Pirating is all dandy and fine, but it's laughable how people are saying you should support this company instead of pirating and cracking their own software. It screams pure hypocrisy and you're blind if you can't see that.

Everything Nintendo does outside of software development is shit. I would gladly buy their games if they were on PC or maybe Xbox/PS4. I already paid $300 + $70 (for a usable controller) for a platform that is only good for playing Nintendo 1st party games. Fuck Nintendo as a company. Although, their games are amazing. So much so, that I bought a $370 piece of shit so I could play them. I don't feel bad taking from them. Quite the opposite.

Dont be bad with me, but i think TeamTX did a good Job, they already provide 2 Updates in less then 2 Weeks.
For 30 bucks this is more than fine for me and the best is you can us all that homebrew stuff even for free.

What do you want from Nintendo? You know that Nintendo is living from selling hardware and Sony and Microsoft don't. They mainly deliver a platform to sell software and licenses. Nintendo delivers software mainly to sell their system. You say that you like their games so I guess you would like further games from them. How about not to fuck them then and instead support them further. If you're a graphic-fetishist you should know that this is something you can't expect from them because it does not fit into their business model. Stick to your good old PC.

He's pretty thick headed. Just let him live in his ways. He thinks he needs to justify being a pirate in such an obscure way. Can't convince him otherwise.

They provided 2 updates in 2 weeks because they released a software with various bugs. That doesnt seems like a “good job” it’s an obligation for them to update because people pay. They are just doing their work.

The nintendo switch its the only nintendo system that isnt well emulated, and yet people developing yuzu are making some big advances in emulating it. My point is, if you dont like their “piece of shit” you could have waited for a proper emulation software to run their games on your pc.

I'd want Nintendo to go third party, however, I realize that's about as likely to happen as Don John naming me Secretary of P****. Short of that, I'd like Nintendo to make a system that isn't centered around gimmicks and crippled to hell. Just make a damn box which is powerful enough for current ports and has some value added features. I thought the Wii U was a much better system than the Switch. Sorry for the devisive comment. I'm not usually such a dick. I wanted the Switch to be good. The reveal was surreal. It was like a parody. Enjoy the Switch. Sorry to shit on something that you enjoy. I just don't get it.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Yup, he does that.

You must have me confused with somebody else. I rarely post anything inflammatory or divisive. I made one other post many moons ago pointing out my perceived faults of the Switch. Sorry for the off topic rant. I just wanted to explain why I pirate from Nintendo but I don't pirate PC games. I don't wish to create anymore hostility/off topic discussions.

I've not given any indication on the time frame, only that hexkyz has said he is attempting to crack it and when or if he does he says he'll release it. He might not crack it ever.

You've been saying that whether he cracks it or not, he's only going to release a decrypted bootloader. I accept he can't release a crack until he cracks it, but that is different from what you've been saying.
