    Hacking Nintendo just paid off 3 people for the HackerOne Program

    Hmm, work hard on an exploit and sell it for money to a respectable company, helping them making their system more secure, or give it away for free to a community made of 99% of kids who don't care about anything but piracy... tough choice. Don't get me wrong, I'm on the side of using the hack...

    What do you do to relieve boredom?

    The key is to transform your hobbies into something creative/proactive. Too many people are consumers of content and that quickly becomes boring. If you like video games you can try: - creating your own video game - creating mods or skins for videogames (other people mentioned minecraft for...

    Why dont fake "releases trolls" get banned?

    I think that's a good example of the issue here for the forum mods. Hykem has delivered countless times on various hacking scenes, so it's very likely his hack is real. So then, as a mod, what rules are you going to enforce? What is a troll, and what is a legit project that has been delayed? If...

    Hacking Hykem's 5.5 iosu Exploit

    It's not trivial: it takes several hours of digging into a 500 pages thread to find the information, for anyone who does not follow the subject on a daily basis. I know, because that's exactly what I had to do to write the article It does not spread drama: If you read the article, you've seen...

    Hardware PSA: Gateway Is Making More Bricks

    A freaking lot! Just because you and your close group of friends are tech-savy and know about sites like GBATemp, most flashcart users have never heard of it. OR of Gateway or the clones. They just know it as the "thingy to play free games on my 3DS", and they don't even know there are clones...

    Homebrew 3DS: ssspwn exploit works on firmware 8.x, Smealum hopes for a release “soon”

    Maxconsole is *owned* by manufacturers of those hacking dongles/devices, etc... it's in their own interest to advertise as much as possible for these devices. That site is majorly biased/corrupted and in no way can be compared to other scene sites, including GBA Temp. I'm sure you know that...

    Homebrew 3DS: ssspwn exploit works on firmware 8.x, Smealum hopes for a release “soon”

    Coming from the PSP/Vita scene, and knowing nintendo's reputation in terms of security, I would say it is very unlikely that they have any way to find out about an undisclosed exploit. If they had found it, they would have patched it. This is why, at least in the vita scene, most exploits are...

    Homebrew 3DS: ssspwn exploit works on firmware 8.x, Smealum hopes for a release “soon”

    Fair enough. to be honest I was mostly replying to Idaho's direct attacks against my article, not to your doubts.

    Homebrew 3DS: ssspwn exploit works on firmware 8.x, Smealum hopes for a release “soon”

    I feel you're playing on words here, but I'll bite: it is very likely that the "second half" is firmware specific, for example addresses that need to be changed, or portions of the exploit that need to be slightly updated to work with the newest firmware. There is no reason to believe that an...

    Analysis: Manufacturing cost and estimated sales of the Gateway 3DS by Wololo

    You are misreading the exact thing that you quote. I did not say you are bad if you pirate, I said you are bad if you make people pay for piracy. Let me summarize: people who pirate = personal choice People who pay to pirate = dumb People who make you pay to pirate = bad Clear enough?
