    Ah the nostalgic days of obsessing over wololo to see if my firmware was finally going to be supported.

    IIRC for the PSP there came a day where you could run code straight from the external storage card without needing anything else. Which led to bootable game ISOs from the vanilla UI.

    I could be remembering things wrong as it has been over a decade.

      I miss when most hardware was jailbreakable as easily as running a basic script. Nowadays it’s like you can maybe jailbreak your device if it’s running software version 3.04.05.6 EXACTLY and your device was manufactured inbetween the dates 2017-05-05 and 2017-05-07. It also needs to be a full moon and the third Tuesday of the month Otherwise, nope it’s completly locked down

        I love stupid exploits like the patapon demo exploit where you use a specific save file as the payload entry point. That’s what I like the most about exploits. Or how for Nintendo consoles all the Smash games can be used to install cfw.
