I since updated my switch via Choi from 7.0.1 to 8.1.0 auto RCM'ed it too no fuse burnt, now i wanted to make a nand backup of 810 would it be a legit nand backup that i could use for things like restoring or would it be still considered a 701 nand because of no burnt fuse. I do have FW701 backup though obviously.

Interesting idea but from what I have gathered reading about Emunand and nand combinations this can't work. Your backup of a updated nand using Choidujour-nx has tainted the nand itself. As such, there is a good possibility that should you use a backup of this nand as "legit" to go online using Nintendo's servers, they will flag it and you will get banned. The fact that you ran CFW and then Choi left traces on your nand, so the backup is dirty.

The best and only way to get around this, as far as I know is to have a backup of a clean Nand were you never ran any CFW or homebrew (fuses burnt according to the firmware you are on, no NSPs, etc...) You can then use that backup. You MUST then update using the settings menu and using nintendo's services, thereby burning your fuses. In the mean time, for emunand, you can update or not using choi... fuses don't matter in emmunand to be honest...

So in short, the choice is the following:

update switch prperly for real nand, keep emmunand offline at all times or use icognito 90ds
don't update switch properly for real nand, never go online or risk getting seriously banned.

Anyone who is more in the know can correct me if I a wrong. I am far from an expert here.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    How are you doing?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, I'm doing alright, thanks.

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That sounds really cool

    I know the basics but no strategy at all :rofl:

    Watch chess streamers on Twitch and you'll pick up a thing or two.

    Not to mention there's an infinite number of chess games for every possible platform.
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    just play it, get beaten a few times and start dominating

    Nude chess is best

    strip checkers > nude chess
