I've been out of the scene since 3.0.0 was the only hackable version, I have a 4.1.0 or 4.1.1 (can't remember) switch right now. What can I do to hack it? I've read there are two CFWs (besides SX), is that true?

There's also SX OS but it's a paid option, but also the only version to play copies of cartridges

Also to note:

People are creating downloads which brick your switch. Always have a backup from hekate!
Plus be aware that there is some hate in the scene...

Atmosphere 0.75 is the latest and greatest. Kosmos package is a handy way to get it all together quickly. Hekate 4.2 Make a backup, you'll want boot 0/1 and raw (full) or SYS (min).

Get anything from trusted scene repositorys.

Understatement of the day. Between the Tinfoil name confusion and pissing match and the Pikachu brick code there is a lot of bullshit tearing down the scene. I've been modifying consoles since my original xbox and I've never seen so many bratty kids cause so much chaos as the Switch scene.

Apparently, as i was told, the 3DS scene was the same, if not even worse

Well you forgot the fights between developers only wanting to support one CFW and hating on other CFW users

Where is the fight between reinx, atmosphere and hekate prepacked CFWs. They all cooperate and to some degree rely on each other. All support the same stuff. The exception is Xecuter, but they are not fighting with anyone either.
And hate is only in the community, not in development (against other CFW users).

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
