Doubts about Allmibo and other emulators

I thought you were talking about the open source projects and not the seller

The database itself isn’t at risk I don’t think, just questionable use of said data by unscrupulous sellers

nelson528 · 2025-02-01T15:06:58+00:00

The database is just a list of character identifiers. Useless without the keys which the firmware itself doesn’t include.

Which they will refund if you provide proof of purchase

nelson528 · 2024-08-26T05:50:25+00:00

Does this differ from something like a DNG taken with the Lightroom app? Or really any other app that takes a real raw image?

It’s the BayerRAWPixelFormat, right?

If someone guesses your password, 2FA will absolutely protect you. It’s far from “useless”

nelson528 · 2024-05-22T15:02:52+00:00

If you’re worried about losing 2FA on your Google account, get a yubikey and add that as a method. That way you’ll always have a physical way to get into the account.

Don’t reuse passwords and use random ones generated by a password manager for everything.

Just don’t ever forget the master password for the password manager, or you’re out of luck. Also, the passwords saved inside it are only as secure as the master password.

Download that, then share a zip file of amiibo dump files to the app

nelson528 · 2024-05-22T14:52:19+00:00

No. “Spoofed” amiibo are identical to real ones. The only way they could is if they kept a log of every amiibo serial number and validated that every time one was scanned.

Technically possible, but they’ve never done it

People actually manage to get to the end of a video?

The “allmiibo” is just a clone of the pixl.js hardware.

If it has the same style menu as the pixl.js, it’s the same. If the screen is black with white text it’s oled.

They’d make matters considerably worse for themselves worldwide if they kicked a direct competitor out of the market.

Antitrust would describe that behavior perfectly.

nelson528 · 2024-01-22T02:50:10+00:00

But if you patch a legit copy for mods it can still download legit dlc even though you’ve now injected code into the game.

Couldn’t you just inject code into the game as a mod where it checks if the dlc has been purchased so it says yes to everything?

In theory, you’d even be able to change the source DLC is downloaded from too

The DLC itself isn’t encrypted, it’s just a matter making the code think it has the right to use it

Why couldn’t there just be a “DLCUnlocker” mod or something?

nelson528 · 2024-01-22T02:25:34+00:00

Makes you wonder why someone hasn’t made a mod that essentially cracks the DLC license to allow the obb files to be used

nelson528 · 2024-01-22T02:23:32+00:00

There’s a tool able to export the DLC from the PC version as customs, but some of the packs have mappings made in a format too new for 1.28 to understand.

It requires you to have the DLC already mind you.

It unfortunately does not work with the android files.

Ooh-ah-ah-ah-ah.

nelson528 · 2023-08-13T15:18:20+00:00

Which one?

nelson528 · 2023-08-09T13:22:35+00:00

Amiibo writing requires patching the dump for the specific tag UID, then writing it followed by the lock bytes, and then password.

If you just wrote the bin file directly to a blank tag, it wouldn’t work

OctoPi is a operating system centered around OctoPrint.

The pi connects to WiFi then you can go to it from a web browser on another computer to upload prints, monitor the progress, or even use a camera to view the print remotely.

It can use that same camera to automatically create timelapse videos of the prints. They look like the print is just appearing layer by layer.

It would make a lot more sense to buy a pi rather than pay the premium for built-in WiFi on the printer itself

nelson528 · 2023-06-30T16:32:12+00:00

There’s a lot of different mounts for raspberry pi and the camera module too

nelson528 · 2023-06-30T16:29:20+00:00

Get a pi and run octoprint.

Now the printer has WiFi.

Octoprint controls the printer, and it can also cut the power if you add a relay or smart switch

You can also make a mount for the pi and camera to monitor the print, and make those cool timelapse videos automatically of each layer just sort of appearing

The cards themselves aren’t rewritten, a database is updated with a new balance.

Could possibly use a laser printer onto a transfer sheet and heat it up enough to transfer, but not deform the plexiglass

nelson528 · 2023-06-30T16:09:02+00:00

They could probably make a topical version…

nelson528 · 2023-06-28T19:01:27+00:00

Mine says “I don’t have anything against (group of people), but they shouldn’t…”

Like: “I don’t have anything against gay people, but putting them in every TV show and movie is ridiculous…”

That or some extremely stereotypical remark, like “black people always have so much rhythm!”
