sony is just going to block this shit all over again like they did with the ps3

Why wouldn't you be able to install Linux on an overpriced, underpowered PC?
>>
>>53404874
Because Sony locks the shit out of it

I mean you can probably get a used/refurb PS4 for half that now. Don't see anything beating it in the same form factor at least.
>>
>>53404864
at least this time it wasn't an advertised feature and they somehow got away with pulling it
>>
>>53405007
>implying the form factor is good
most mini-itx cases have less volume and are spaced more efficiently.
>>
>>53405081
Ill ship you a nickel if you can fit a similarly specced m-itx build in the ps4 chassis
>>
sweet, they released the exploits and loader
>>
>>53404858

But why bother...
>>
>>53405494
Why bother with anything? What's the point in life? May as well off yourself now, you don't know your purpose anyway.

This is old news.

I started a few threads on this months back and they just died.
>>
well finally Linux will get some vidyagames.. ohh no, wait... its for PS4 LOL nevermind.
>>
>>53405606
it wasn't completely possible yet. it's only just happened for real.
>>
>>53405646
They did this a while ago.

But whatever, imagine SteamOS running on the PS4.
>>
>>53404858
>Requires firmware 1.76.
>Implying you can downgrade.
>>
>>53405606

>>
>>53405721
