Hello hypervisor, I'm geohot
Hello hypervisor, I'm geohot
I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV level access to the processor. In other words, I have hacked the PS3. The rest is just software. And reversing. I have a lot of reversing ahead of me, as I now have dumps of LV0 and LV1. I've also dumped the NAND without removing it or a modchip.3 years, 2 months, 11 days...thats a pretty secure system
Took 5 weeks, 3 in Boston, 2 here, very simple hardware cleverly applied, and some not so simple software.
Shout out to George Kharrat from iPhoneMod Brasil for giving me this PS3 a year and a half ago to hack. Sorry it took me so long :)
As far as the exploit goes, I'm not revealing it yet. The theory isn't really patchable, but they can make implementations much harder. Also, for obvious reasons I can't post dumps. I'm hoping to find the decryption keys and post them, but they may be embedded in hardware. Hopefully keys are setup like the iPhone's KBAG.
A lot more to come...follow @geohot on twitter

Big River Man
I’ve never eaten a horseburger. I’ve had peacock, crocodile, buffalo, kangaroo, and KFC, but nary a horse. Slovenia’s Martin Strel eats horseburgers. He also drinks two bottles of wine a day, and says “Fat is my power”. He also swims 2.5 miles an hour, five hours a day, and, to raise awareness about pollution and the destruction of rainforests, does this in the world’s most dangerous, dirtiest rivers. After previously taking on the Mississippi and the Yangtze (which saw him swimming between human corpses), in 2007, aged 52, he was the first person to tackle the Amazon, where he swam 3,273 miles in 66 days.

Startup in 7 days
Everyone has a one good million dollar idea, but not everyone acts on them. There is always an excuse, always a reason why not. The most common I hear is “I don’t have time” and “I don’t have the money”. Bollocks! I want to show that with just a little capital and a little bit of time anyone can turn an idea into a business – a start up. This is the first blog in a series where I attempt to create a start up business in just seven days and for under $500.

HD Vision Glasses
As if the glasses weren't funny enough, check the second related video. How is breastfeeding related you may ask? If you know, tell me? HD boobs perhaps?

Audiophoolery
"YOU MIGHT THINK that a science-based field like audio engineering would be immune to the kind of magical thinking we see in other fields. Unfortunately, you would be wrong. In my 35 years as a professional audio engineer and musician, I’ve seen some of the most outrageous pseudoscience sold to consumers, and even to other audio pros who should know better. Not unlike claims for alternative medicine, nonsense is shrouded in scientific-sounding jargon to confuse the uneducated, or a sales pitch will cite science that is legitimate but irrelevant. The result is endless arguments among audiophiles over basic scientific principles that have been fully understood for fifty years or more."
