@ipg related: it's so funny to me that there was someone in the 3ds hacks community that was angry that there was a known exploit that wasn't being released (it was suspected that a major update was coming soon so they were saving the exploit). they thought "just release it for the people who can't hack their consoles yet and find another exploit after the update, it can't be that hard"

and then, to prove their point, they found and released an exploit in like a week

...then months later they came crawling back like "yeah i got super lucky, this is hard as hell"
