A new research blog deserves a proper first post.

A SecureROM bug seemed appropriate.

Allow us to introduce you to #usbliter8.

A new unpatchable vulnerability has been discovered for the iPhone XS and iPhone 11. The exploit enables booting an unsigned bootloader, which means tools like checkra1n or palera1n could be updated to support these devices.

@paulnash666 @jeanbap59962914 @bigaiguy English is just badly pronounced French anyway

@AvimanyuRoy3 @cifilter Far more expensive though

@DigitalGanon Le pire maintenant c’est que zstd et lz4 sont d’un autre français qui s’appelle Yann Collet

@SteamFrameOut I love that some people still practice engineering and computer science.

@steipete You should look at libkrun by the people from RedHat, very nice work (works really well on macOS)

Instead of warning about exploit source code that does nothing harmful whatsoever, how about doing something about all the countless fake jailbreaks hosted on your platform that all link to the similar sites (e.g. pangu8(.)com) that sell fake software for real money? @github

@oskargroth @steipete Yeah I implemented a virtual camera tweak for the vphone-cli project by @Lakr233 thanks to Claude and Hopper MCP 👌

Hugo Duminil-Copin, French mathematician and 2022 Field Medalist told me he never participated in math competition and was very bad at it.
Innovative mathematics requires creativity, intuition, intense concentration, and long reflections, sometimes spread over several years.
Good performance at a math olympiad merely tests fast problem solving abilities. AI can do that nowadays.
One of the big activities of a researcher, in mathematics and elsewhere, is not to answer questions but to ask the right questions.

We need legislation on sideloading ASAP. Yesterday, I learned the hard way that I’m not allowed to use my own personal, paid developer certificate to sign IPAs I want to install on my own personal device. Wow. 😬
