I'm a little concerned. A friend of mine's Wii U console with the tubehax DNS configured just updated from 5.5.0 to 5.5.1 on its own. Even after the update, his DNS settings on his only set connection read 107.211.140.065. Why did his console just slip by and update?
It depends on router config.
Is his Wii U connected like this: Modem -> Router -> Wii U ?

I think the router would resolve the hostname independent of what configuration is used in the devices you connect to it.

I have no idea what that means. But anyway, I had several games I purchased and was stuck on 5.5 so to get access to eshop I updated to get my kids Nintendo land. Damn....
Oh that's why you updated? Let's hope there's some kind of exploit for 5.5.1, because right now there's not much we can do about that firmware honestly.

on the other hand
kexploits would be useless when IOUS exploit is releassed
Not necessarily, IOSU could be patched on higher firmware, but we can still have one of these kernel exploits as a backup. The guys in wii u cracking don't hold on to this stuff to be assholes like the 3ds guys do, they actually release their shit when it's the right time.

Yea I updated for a legitimate reason :) Well here's to hoping! Thanks for considering it @Marionumber1
I'm sure in the future we might do something about 5.5.1, seeing how much devs are in the homebrew+kernel scene, also 5.5.1 doesn't differ too much from 5.5.0, so maybe after some exploits get released there might be a ton of possibilities for exploits in future versions.

Basically, Marionumber1 announced that he's planning on releasing his iOSU exploit, but apart from that. Absolutely nothing happened.
When and where did he say that? I haven't been on all day and really don't want to sift through garbage just to find it.

Besides a few more tests from Onion_Knight for Loadiine v3, no.
How is that going?

Yes, and depending on my decision, it could be released before too long.

We got close AFAIK. His test before last put Mii Maker in an infinite loading loop, but then his next test froze it at the install menu again.

So from what I am able to decipher, nothing new happened today?
Well, MN1 aparently will try to continue with the current work of the IOSU Exploit because we don't have any sign of Hykem since his last time online 14 days ago.
There is a lot of progress on Homebrew for 5.4.0, Onion_Knight is porting Loadiine right now and he will continue tomorrow aparently.
MN1 also said that currently there is a 2nd Kernel Exploit for 5.5.0 And probably also 5.5.1, but he didn't said anything about 5.5.1, but if the Exploit was only working on 5.5 he would just release it already because it was patched, and he is currently still deliberating if release one of the Exploits of not.

So yea, today was a pretty productive day with news and ports, more than the typical day here.

Edit: Also, josamilu made a great guide of how to Compile Payloads for 5.5.0 and 5.5.1 and run them, I forgot about that for a moment.

Well that is good to hear. Maybe the storm will calm down afterwards to where the forum returns to a semi normal state.

He's not active on github either.
You don't really know.
Afaik you can contribute secret/nonpublic things to github with a false date.
The rasplex dev crew contributed their stuff a long time backdated to 13 Apr 2014 - so nobody knew what was going on.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it

    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022

    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled

    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
