Hacking Everyone should look at 0x30092891 ?

How is being stereotypical about being white and american not racist, but as soon as the target isn't white it is?

In order words how is "What did you expect from a snow-white American boy that just hit puberty" better than for example "What did you expect from a black American homie that just hit puberty"?


You can't call someone out for something you also are.

Oh snap.

Why do people still get pissy at kindergarten insults regarding their skin colors?

If that address is a RAM value then that places it smack-bang in the middle of MEM2, which means it could be anything. It is outside the range of the browser (background apps theoretically go up to 0x2C000000, a bit earlier in practice), so it might be owned by another process (which could mean it has an interesting value) or he might not be using browserhax to check the address (with kernel, it could be anything). The thing is, the volatile nature of memory means that it'll probably be a different value each time you check. Ryan probably noticed that whatever made him tweet about it wasn't there the next time he rebooted and deleted the tweet.

It could possibly be some sort of offset to a library. For instance, you run desynced code at that offset and crazy junk happens. Who knows?

Spoiler: Quick explanation of desynced code

So, as you probably know, computers run instructions, not code. Let's keep it simple and say each instruction is two bytes long and that it has two bytes of constant data after it. Consider the following:

Offset 0x20: 0F
Offset 0x22: 36
Offset 0x24: B3

If you start reading instructions at offset 0x20, the computer sees instruction 0F with the data 36, then the instruction B3... and so on. However, if you start reading at offset 0x22, the computer sees instruction 36 with data B3. You've completely changed the meaning of code simply by reading it from a different starting point.

This is often disastrous for the program and will likely crash, but in some, specific cases there's no crash. Luckily for the program, not all instructions are 2 bytes with 2 bytes of data: take NOP for instance, which takes no data at all. Instructions like that one help "sync" the program back up with the way it's meant to be.

Pretty cool, right?

There's also the possibility that this has nothing whatsoever to do with the Wii U ;3

I checked kernel, iosu, coreinit image and there's nothing at these value ! (There are the 3 main things where we can possibly find exploit or vulnerabilities...)

These file doesn't 0x30092891 for offset.

The first thing I have thinked was the RAM, but that not your level

After much research, I've finally figured out what this tweet meant! Let me explain.
I searched up the address and it only came up with this thread. However, it also converted it to decimal. Searching the decimal version also doesn't come up with much, but it does come up with this document - a huge list of numbers. Taking the first few lines of numbers and searching them shows us more, similar documents. However, among these results is also a PDF - this one. It's a list of examples for a piece of software - LS-DYNA, a realistic physics simulator often used by the automotive industry to simulate crashes and whatnot. Crashes, huh? Let's go back to our list of numbers. I duplicated the file 876 times so it was long enough to have a character at 0x30092891, and the character turned out to be 0. Specifically -
(starting at 0x3009288C) 0.000000000E+00.

Spotted it? I bolded and italicised it, so you should be able to see the magic 0. It's interesting to note that it's the fifth 0 in that number. The fifth? There's more than 5 examples in our LS-DYNA example list. Open up that PDF and head down to page 99. You can see example 5 in all its glory. If you continue scrolling past the code to page 104 there's two diagrams to explain example 5 - a wireframe model and a graph. Please direct your attention to the graph.

At first glance, it may seem that this is just a simple graph, but look closer - the x axis, the y axis and the data line... They all form a shape. They form a triangle. You know what else is a triangle? The illuminati. It seems Ryan is coming out as a member.

Ryanrocks462 = Illuminati confirimed.

(I'm so sorry)
