I see a number of you YouTubers making videos on how to install HBL, but I've yet to notice one mentioning backing up the NAND. I see links in the descriptions to GBAtemp, from time to time, too. Sounds like an important step to leave out.
Hacking Suggestion So many YouTube install videos without mentioning NAND backup

I a lot of those tutorials seem to be made by people for quick views without the knowledge they should have when making such videos.
Well, making a backup is common sense/knowledge for most people, so it's not really that absurd to not include that information.
Either way, Hekate can do you nand backup, as well as linux.

You can use hekate to back up your NAND. When you've got onto hekate, there's a tools option I believe. From there, you have to click dump Raw NAND and that should do so onto your SD Card.
Just format your sdcars to fat32 so you can use it for the mean time.

It's because it's unneeded. There's almost no way to softbrick your Switch.
I mean, it would be "nice" if youtubers made a comment about NAND backups before their tutorials but at the end of the day is not their responsability. We are the ones that are modding our consoles and should know what that comes with.
If you need to be reminded about making a backup everytime, then you probably shouldnt do anything to your console.

Tell that to the purple screen guy
Some guy bricked his switch (sidenote: it matched his keyboard at least
) and it gave him a purple screen. He didn't backup. Here's the thread:https://gbatemp.net/threads/permanent-violet-screen-on-switch.503909/

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

I used to drink alcohol fairly often. Never to the point of it being a problem, but like 2-3 beers with dinner each night, or a few cocktails or glasses of Scotch or something. Started smoking/vaping weed a lot a few years back which killed 90% of my interest in booze. Now I stopped smoking/vaping weed as much and just deal with life the boring way most of the time+1

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.

So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.

@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)

@Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.+1

@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:
@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.
