the PCB layout must've come from the real CAD models, unless someone was incredibly meticulous with it

probably the real thing, real tegras vary more widely than that - but they probably just eyeballed it

good catch (they're capacitors btw) it would kinda make sense that they didn't have a full model of the SoC since that comes from nvidia, whereas the PCB is from nintendo themselves

I'm dying to know whether the 3D model has more detail than is visible

the mistake was the video because that was way too decontextualiseable (which of course the grifter acconts on twitter immediately did)

idk I expect people to be able to google things, plenty of articles out there contextualising e.g. ps5 userspace rop

I'm not familiar with it, is there a technical writeup?

And you can certainly "discover" exploits too, but that's usually in a forensics / incident-response / threat-intelligence context.

it's a true statement at least lol
comment in response to

people keep saying things like "an exploit was discovered".
It's like saying "a new building was discovered in town this week". Sure, maybe someone did discover a fully-formed building, but most likely it was built.

the black levels are definitely bad side-by-side with an oled, but the colours are vibrant

the "usermode generally *is* native code" part is a little dubious
