Hi guys,

I am on the second or third lastest firmware (last update was in august or september). I extracted my otp, got CIA, the arm9 loader and luma custom firmware running. Is it save to just update to the lastest custom firmware? Do I need to update luma first? It was installed in August I followed the github tutorial (https://3ds.guide/). I have no sd card nand, but I got hourglass installed.

It's completely safe to update your console via system settings if you're using Luma3DS with A9LH. I would update Luma first, just to be completely safe (do this manually or with Luma3DS Updater, don't use Star Updater if you have it).

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
