[QUOTE="notimp, post: 7947451, member: 101990"] For moral support - so am I. :) People presumably are now sniffing the network traffic of their consoles to see how Nintendo could connect to them (and ALL of them) without going through the usual update servers - could be a domain that lay dormant and never popped up in logs of the Switch talking to Nintendo before, could be a baked in return channel, that directly communicates to an IP, and circumvents DNS resolving, ... Once they've found it, we can block it. Presumably once they've found it, they also will analyze the part of their software where the "command and control" pipe comes in to hopefully have a better chance of preventing them to do this in the future. If they have flipped he bit on your console, "we" can reverse what they have done - but not without considerable effort on the part of everyone who wants to do so. Making syspartition backups and writing to them via linux on the switch primarily. And in the end, they wont be able to prevent the hardware assisted exploits. So depending on how long folks take to find out what exactly N is doing, this might be an entirely useless storm in the waterglass, that does nothing for N apart from pissing off the most technically savvy users. If this turns out to take longer than expected - everyone on 3.0.0 should look for the esp8266 method of launching HBL from a local "mini server" that costs about 7USD. Less convenient, but not really slower, or more complicated. Of course - using the locally hosted exploit, still blocking the Switches Internet access entirely - is only possible - if the bit hasn't already been switched (the access restriction for the browser enabled). At least until the method to flip the bit back is released. (Which shouldnt take long, but let devs reside on the side of caution there). Nintendo just made sure TX and others sell a few more modchips today. Not sure if that was in their interest... [/QUOTE]

I feel like school, back when I was actually in school, was more entertaining though, because of how much I get to interact with people, hang out with friends, and other stuff like that. All I get to talk to at work is my boring coworkers lol
