In more better news today, XorLoser has released his updated XorHack - For those that can fully understand PPC coding, and want to play around dumping memory, and disassembling key parts of the PS3 brain.

After using the XorHack for a while I realised it was missing some things so I decided it was time for an update. New syscalls have been added to give finer control over data access, now providing 8, 16, 32 and 64 bit reads and writes. Also some new ioctls were added to provide additional useful functions for your userland code. Lastly new userland applications were added which now give the ability to read, write and execute memory from the command line
After a long silent period from his last post. Geohot has made a new posting on his blog, with just a single picture:
This has turned again into another series of comments on Geohot's blog which is best called as "This is getting pathetic..." to use xiaNaix words in his message to inform of this news by MSN today.
