  • If there’s a personal information field, filling it with random noise is marginally better than leaving it blank. The pronouns field is new but I’ve noticed a lot of women friends (that have gender neutral usernames and profile pics, and no linked social media) opting to not use it or set it to he/him because having it filled out accurately caused trolls and bots and incels to fill their DMs.















  • Which is why this flashcart is saying “don’t go online unless you’re using your own backups”. This cart spoofs the unique signature and such to the console. If you download mario kart 8 from a torrent and run it here, you’ll trip Nintendo’s copy detection. If you go to a gamestop and buy a used mario kart 8, then back it up to this thing and return the cart to the gamestop… Well one of two things happens.

    1: Nintendo’s system is manually managed and Nintendo checks cartridge certs against a known dataset of pirated copies. You can now play pirated Mk8 online because of your valid cert that doesn’t match any known dumps.

    2: Nintendo’s system is automated and will permanently ban anyone online with a given cert in two consoles at once. You can now play pirated Mk8 online until someone else goes to the gamestop, buys the cart you used, and tries to play online at the same time as you. Now you and the guy that bought the used game are perma’d.
