Can you pull a repo you didn't post or ....


If you don't know what the GitHub leak is, it was major leak of these next gen consoles.

Obviously not fake, but how can you pull it if it wasn't your repo. And why make this claim at all?

Uh...is there any way to see who took it down?

Difficult for me to give this the benefit of the doubt anyway, given hmqgg flubbed (1) XSX being RDNA1 and (2) XSX and PS5's SSD secret sauce both being GPU decompression.

He's Bill Gates and that's the real reason behind GitHub acquisition by Microsoft.

Yeah... I don't get this thread.

Who is this person, and what Github leak? Not sure what this has to do with gaming. A lot of context is missing.

I was wondering the same thing. A little context in OP would be dynamite.

Next time OP, try putting context in your post. Like, any context at all.

After some Googling I found this, which I think explains some of this:

So this is a fake leaker/insider, emerging from a literal sea of fake/insiders claiming responsibility for his fake leak?

This is being presented as something significant, but I don't know what any of it means

The OP makes no sense. Is anyone reading through the second screenshot?

He's saying the Github leak was proven (we already know this), and he took down the post to find the moles... what moles? And it's a happy ending because they were found and he is "lol all the time." Is he drunk?

Ah thanks, there's some context.

So OP is claiming that this leak was a doctored fake, yet Digital Foundry is claiming it's real? Doesn't that tarnish their credibility if true?

No he is claiming that it is real as well. Just that he somehow had the ability to control the repo? Did he create a fake repo with these docs? Now we don't know where they came from. Thats what I am wondering.

Nice of you to post something from his twitter feed after he had explicitly asked to not do that.

He said the XSX was RDNA1 and was adamant about it.

That's what they call a liar. No one should give him any attention anymore.

Well I don't see all of this? If you want the thread locked I will report it as a curtesy. Otherwise I would like to discuss.


As I said I never saw any of that.

Please do it.

That was my pinned twitter when I locked my account, I just didn't know when it disappeared. But if you didn't read that, okay.

Pretty sure he is saying he DMCA'd the repository somehow. No idea how he did it, probably social engineering or some shit.

Lol, some ppl just read part of my tweets and ignored the reply that I said it has RDNA2 features but I doubted the efficiency due to process node. And it wasn't even announced at that time.

Someone asked you if you believed it was still RDNA1 and you answered "Yes."
So, nah.
