I recently looked at the prices of pre built desktop in my country and the PS5 offers better price to performance, if it is jailbroken that is. The prices are ridiculous. I wanted a desktop to play games, the price isn’t worth it. Every month I see an increase in the price.
I mean, no. It will not. Some neat features or hacks may be LLM assisted, but it isn’t a miracle.
Besides, we can’t even convince people to switch to Linux, even with the RAMpocalypse in full swing. The vast majority still run Windows (or OSX/iOS/Android). How can we get even a fraction of them to hack a PS5 or something like that?
The other side is… what’s even out there to hack?
Old PS5s? Old PCs? Old Macs? Old servers? All these are skyrocketing in cost, and the instructions/features they physically support are aging. The only thing that’s plentiful are old smartphones, and you can already turn those into Linux boxes.
