There’s this amazing invention; it’s called “wash your vegetables”.

Oh no! It says there might be early spoilers! Yikes!

Nothing for me to do but go download the ROM and play it early, then. I have no choice.

So, the ROM leaking early has…what to do with emulators?

At this point, I think it’s gone from “ethically okay” to “mandatory”.

It’s like downloading Metallica’s newest album. Sure, I might never listen to it, but it’s the principle.

I could see Georgia banning masks, but not because of racism.

Hey, instead of picking on that little kid, why don’t you go harass that huge bodybuilder guy with all the knives attached to his belt?

Nintendo’s argument is that their games are art, and being unable to control how they’re presented degrades the art. My eyes rolled across the room the first time I heard that.

Demonoid. They had a community that put together a lot of high-quality torrents.

You’re going to have to explain this convoluted logic to your grandchildren when they ask you why you voted for genocide.

If they haven’t released it, then they haven’t released it. I highly doubt somebody on Lemmy knows how to hack Julian Assange, and even if they did, this would be the wrong place to ask.

Don’t do illegal drugs, kids! You could get in trouble, because they’re illegal.

I assume emulator development will continue eventually. Who knows when that will be, though.

The thing that sucks is that I’m in the middle of a couple of games, so if something upgrades and Ryujinx isn’t compatible, I’m hosed.

Anything that releases in the last year or two of the Switch’s life is now at risk of being lost forever into Nintendo’s archives.

Somebody will archive it, for two reasons: 1) data hoarders and 2) hacked Switches.

This is the first time they’ve been suing emulator developers.

I don’t even understand how this would be illegal. How is copyright being violated here? You aren’t supposed to be able to file a frivolous DMCA.

Copying Nintendo games isn’t only ethical; it’s a moral obligation.

Geany feels more like Notepad++ than Kate does.

So, what do you think is happening in Palestine? In Lebanon?

Maybe it’s not very addictive for you. It is for most people.

The way you are with coffee is the way I am with nicotine. I’ve smoked. I’ve quit smoking. I’ve started again. The most craving I’ve gotten for a cigarette was incredibly mild. Once I read that nicotine could trigger certain diseases that run in my family, I quit tobacco completely and I’ve never looked back. I haven’t had a cigarette in about 18 years, and quitting was trivially easy for me.

Based on this, I could say “Cigarettes aren’t very addictive. They’re easy to quit!” And of course, I’d be dead wrong.

Me using Windows: “Oh, yeah, everything costs money. I forgot how much I hate this. Okay, no worries, I’ll just download cracked applications.”
