The developer has posted on his Twitter account a message which only developers can understand:
pup from ps3utils and puppack/pupunpack from ps3tools in github.com/kakaroto can now pack/unpack 3.56 correctly.
This seemingly futile game between Sony and the hacking community gained momentum throughout the last half of 2010, after the corporation removed the “Other OS” functionality from all PS3 consoles in April. By mid-August, a USB hack had been created to run homebrew applications on the console, but Sony fought back. Since then, several new firmware “security patches” were released, only to be subsequently hacked.
Though this latest firmware update proved to be useless, Sony may have another trick up their sleeve to discourage unauthorized use of the PS3.
Time will tell if Sony has any other brilliant ideas that will address and solve their security woes, but today the hackers have won another small victory against The Man.

Mobile computing devices are increasingly replacing the regular PCs. While PCs still remain the mainstream mode of computing, the mobile platform has experienced an explosive growth in the recent years. And at the head of this growth is Apple, holding the largest market share in both the mobile PC and tablet market.
In April 2012, Nokia proudly announced that Lumia 610 would be able to run the Windows Phone version of Skype. Later on, Skype announced that it won’t support Skype for Windows Phone on devices with 256MB RAM. As Lumia 610 got only 256MB of RAM inside it, the future of Skype support in the handset was in jeopardy. According to reports, Nokia has officially pulled out Skype for Windows from Lumia 610 handsets because of unsatisfactory user experience.
Facebook and Google haven’t been on particularly good terms. The rather unpleasant relationship between the two extends well back into the past and the main reason is that Facebook has been refusing to allow Google to use its user data. While Facebook officially says that it won’t share the data because of privacy reasons of the users, Larry Page says that is false.
