I missed the Atari talk because I had slight problems flashing a 360 drive for a friend );
I'll wait when it's up for grabs on the FTP.

When's the console hacking talk?

 

[Foxi4]

Oooh, I expect good stuff. Last time I watched this conference, Twiizers cracked the s*it out of the Wii. This has to be good stuff, uh-huh.

I don't get it,whats the use of talking about the atari2600 in a hackers convention.

I wonder too. I'm not able to find this event in the schedule.

I dreamed to see a conference with scanlime. She made a great research on the DSi 2 years ago but never talked about it in such event.

Intellectual challenges are one of the primary core motivations of hackers. The Atari 2600 is notoriously hard to program for because it is so limited in capability that it requires superior low-level coding skills to get it to do anything interesting. The challenge is what attracts them.

However, I'm sure good old-fashioned gaming nostalgia is also an element that interests them. Hackers are gamers too, you know.

And the purpose of this convention is not "Giving people piracy hacks".

 

[SifJar]

When's the console hacking talk?

I don't think there is one. Some console hackers will be there in the hack centre, but there isn't an actual "talk" as such I believe.

Lol, Firefox sez, "Not a trusted connection".

Hacker mischief confirmed.

 

[Rydian]

Or maybe somebody just didn't feel like paying a few grand. I wouldn't.

What is the point of the "Ongoing discussion" link?
It just points to the current thread we're in at the moment.

Anyway... How long is that convention supposed to last?

Oh my do you not notice the front page article?
It takes you to this thread from the portal.

People these days...

Isn't that what the small text bubble icon is for?

The text bubble is just an icon.
If you click it nothing happens.
The ongoing discussion button however takes you to this thread.

I liked this event yesterday :



Was very interesting.

 

[Mbmax]

Maybe we will have a lot of printer to update at my work now.

Thanks for the heads up Ang Cui !

 

[Slowking]

Is that one about the HP bruners you can get to burn? XD

Most talks I liked were in german, so that won't be anything for you guys. Kinda sad that this year there was no console hacking. That is a first since many years ago.

 

[Vigilante]

Its the fourth and last day but still no 3DS hacks.
