I’m considering getting rid of all my physical games, is the latest firmware still 100% hackable?

Has it been exploited to the point that a hack can’t be prevented anymore when a new firmware is released?

Thanks

New versions can technically patch the exploits used but Nintendo seems to have stopped caring.

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    I had wanted a sony bravia xr i saw last , still at $>7k
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I've seen 50" oleds floating around for $800 but for a main TV oled still doesn't sound that good cause burn ins
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    led have much more heat i suppose if they can cause burn in, or is the fragile parts used to make them on purpose
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Isn't lcd different from led
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Or oled more burn in prone to qled
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    the newer led variation are just much smaller
  • Veho @ Veho:
    LCD is different from LED and OLED.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    LCD/TFT don't emit light on their own, they just filter color they have to have a backlight. LED/OLED panels emit light.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Backlight can be one giant light panel with a diffusor, but recently there's mini/micro LED backlighting, where you can control the light level for smaller areas of the screen, to get better contrast and color range.
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    yeah, lots of lcd panel tech usually have the dead backlight issue making owners think it's completely dead
  • Veho @ Veho:
    And those backlights can get burn-in themselves.

  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    It's just weird that the only way it'll display a picture is through my Nvidia shield menu won't come on at all
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    if your tv lasted you 5 yrs, i'd say it has served it's purpose
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
