The full exploit only worked on 4.1.0, but it's primary vector is a hardware bug like Fusee Gelee.

Yes.

Ok thanks for clarifying that, but then is not """dead""" is just that it probably wont work on the new units. A little confusing tittle, but i get the point.

It's anything above 1.0.0 IIRC, anything above 4.1.0 requires extra permissions from the Switch
So, can an exploit for patched switches above 4.1.0 in the future be cfw compatible because of this exploit or no? sorry for the noob questions im new to the switch hacking scene

So Deja Vu isn't "dead," it's just public
Added more clarification. It's just as dead as Fusee was in July, it just hasn't actually been fixed yet.

Yes, but Deja Vu had two components. It had a software component (which was patched in 5.0.0) and a hardware component (which can only be patched in new switches). We need a replacement for the software component, and even then, the hardware component was the most important part.

Yeah i know what you are saying. I just think the term "dead" would refer to other stuff happening. Like, Fusee is not "dead", just public.

For me dead would be that is not longer usable. It would be dead for Mariko units, but again, this is just a discrepancy in use of the word dead.

Still, thanks for the info.

Oh wait, Deja Vu had a hardware exploit? I thought it was purely software

I don't know if I am out of the loop of things going on in the scene, but wasn't this exploit reported to nintendo for their hacker bounty program before this was made public?

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
    K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2: @BigOnYa...
