Good news - fingers crossed it will be staying that way.

For anyone who can’t get the license.dat - I’ve tested mine out tonight with the boot.dat but without the license file on the card. Obviously you cannot boot SXOS but you can still boot payloads and I’ve had Atmosphere running using the guide here https://gbatemp.net/threads/running-atmosphere-on-erista-patched-sx-core-switch.574083/

Not sure about Mariko/Lite compatibility but it works on my V1

Who knows what will happen yet, just biding my time. In the absolute worst case scenario patched V1 consoles with the SX core can still load Hekate/Atmosphere without an up to date copy of SX OS or the license, and fingers crossed those tools will be updated for V2/lite soon

I wouldn't be surprised to eventually see clones of the chips popping up that will allow booting any payload not just signed SXOS

In general it looks like they are done for with GaryOPA in jail, I wouldn't be surprise if it last long, going to be suck for people that have SX OS, as there won't be any newer firmware support.
Yea it's too early to tell what will happen. I wouldn't be surprised either way.

How are you guys checking if the activation site is up or down? I just fixed my girlfriend's Switch and had an SX Pro waiting to use for her Switch. I planned on activating it tonight, so if someone can either tell me if the site is up or down or how to check I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

    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.
