    softmod question

    BadUpdate and BadAvatar work by using a bruteforce attack against the hypervisor's memory encryption library and using that to insert a function pointer to arbitrary code. The memory write relies on a race condition because the vulnerable area is cached at Level 2. I am greatly oversimplifying...

    Nintendo announces plans to discontinue Nintendo Switch line in Europe next year, outlines upcoming hardware changes for other devices

    Yeah makes sense, revising a last gen console that sold so well and continues to resell even its most valuable (low serial) units for very cheap isn't worth the small R&D investment.

    Apple raises prices on MacBook and iPad lines, MacBook Neo starting price increased by $100

    i have a Fairphone with Calyx so that's where my bias sits, since it's what I know. i hear /e/OS is good. that's what fairphone recommends officially so you'll probably get better support from there. whatever you choose, just make sure you can replace google services and the phone you pick is...

    you can swear on the internet, your mom isn't going to ground you relative to apple in general I don't think this is that big of a price bump. i'm still surprised the Neo is as cheap as it is

    Sony is moving away from physical discs, will soon only release PlayStation games digitally

    I noticed that. If they unveiled a new console that would make it a little less stupid, but when you announce something like this without that additional context, what does it look like? Anyway, I don't really care about the discs being discontinued since consoles are a walled garden and...

    Pixel art MMO ‘Soulbound’ gets Steam Early Access release date

    I specifically said "the way detail is created", and did not use the word "quality". "Quality" is not the same thing as "resolution". Example: https://datagubbe.se/pihkal/ Pixel art is a medium, like watercolors and oil markers, not a technical criteria. And the game we are talking about is...

    Pixel art MMO ‘Soulbound’ gets Steam Early Access release date

    Low-level 3DS emulator 3Beans released alongside setup tutorial video

    for starters, you're not finding any anti-fingerprinting browser on an iphone, which means you're not blocking ad networks. get a new phone :‎p Mull and Ungoogled Chromium are very helpful. You do not want to run this on a portable. Besides it's not even really aimed at playing games. I don't...

    Low-level 3DS emulator 3Beans released alongside setup tutorial video

    Cool stuff, underrated approach, love getting knee deep in the hardware like that. It took me over 30 minutes to write this by the way. Are we getting DDoSed?
