someone has requested I build KernelTimeMachine, however this has a bigger chance of bricking since it can and will make changes to the NAND. should I do this?

Don't build it. Better safe than sorry. Also, KTM can't built because it misses some dependencies, (I tried forking the repo before to make an UI for it)

I did it because people can't read and they will try to compile it. Most likely they'll publish it here... and it will be a disaster.

You can, but I wouldn't recommend testing it w/o hardmod, and without kernel access implemented you can't use it.

The thing is if you try to run it you will eventually fall in a dead end, because I didn't call the install function in the menu. Even if it is present, it is never called. Reminds me of some svcBackdoors...

Caveat installor, as they say. GBATemp needs the Cyanogenmod disclaimer...

@ihavemac COMPILE IT! AND MAKE IT A PM ONLY THING! (and maybe say that people MUST provide a photo with an hardmodded 3ds.)

Sorry, not in 2016.

I'm finding that hard to process. You mean the younger generation has no dignity or people now-a-days don't mind others taking credit for their work?

Is there any way to build it? I wanted to make an UI and an even more noob-proof security step

If the user was techsavy enough to do anything useful with the compiled version they'd already have the skill to compile it themselves.
Since they can't compile it themselves then they probably have no real business fiddling with it at this point, as they likely don't understand the current risk and safety measures to take.

I think that's a fair enough assessment.

Ok, good to hear that it's not fully working yet. Honestly, you should not push changes to github until memchunkhax2 is stable... just in case.

It's more like: compile it now; risk bricking and probably won't work. Wait for release; works perfectly

No, it's more like compile it now and nothing will happen
