    With hardware prices being what they are is this actually a good deal?

    Based on this list, it looks like you have to be sitting on a 2022 or earlier non-updated PS5 to have a chance at the 4.51 or lower firmware to use this. A chance it’ll open up to other firmwares and as said maybe there’s a limited functionality 5.xx exploit on the horizon, but just a bit of reality before you get too excited.

    Back in March this year, security engineer and modder Andy Nguyen started experimenting with running Linux on the PS5. After months of testing and improvements, he has finally released PS5-Linux

      Think of it like a toddler.

      The first 9 months, it’s not even an infant yet. Then boom, you get a baby. 6 months of development later you have a 6 month old toddler. But process started 15 months ago.

      He essentially did. He did that one build with one of those ps5 reject boards. Based off that I assumed the ps5 could run standard Linux but I haven’t cared about consoles and modding in a very long time.

      If it was on, I assume it is already updated to 5.x which patched the vulnerability. But if it is 4.x then you’re in luck.

      Well, you can get the hardware now for one.

      Would be an interesting comparison once it does release though. Especially for a price/performance comparison now that Sony increased PS5 pricing.

      To access most of the internet you must pay a subscription. Plus the games you buy on the ps5 can’t be put on any other device.

      I know this because I bought baldurs gate and Helldiver’s, and had to purchase them again on steam.

      A ps5 and most consoles are a sunk-cost-fallacy machine.

        The fact that steam games are cross platform is because you buy a license. Very rarely a cd-rom would have Mac and Windows in one, but in that regard desktops were mostly like consoles not so long ago.

      If you can pick up a second-hand PS5, possibly. Obviously is if you already own one and wanna Proton it.
