Emulation isn’t illegal if you own the game, and even if you don’t they have to prove you never bought it.

The only reason Nintendo could go after the emulators they did was because those companies were charging money for a product using Nintendo’s proprietary encryption key. They can’t touch the open source ones (yet).


That’s just standard issue fascism, and really conservatism in general.

It’s why kids tend to be more liberal after going to college.


They also like to try to shoehorn themselves into an already captured market quite often, but they don’t get sales and drop it like you said.


They make the sticks, not the chips on them. There’s only like 3 ram chip fabs.


Streamers are sometimes a good way to find indie games. My wife and I watch DieDevDie and he mostly plays stuff from itch.io.


Did your Zune also get stolen? Pretty much everyone I’ve talked to who had one had it stolen (myself included).


The Zune was amazing. Blew my iPod classic out of the water. I’m still mad it got stolen.

Microsoft just fucked up marketing it.



Because it has desktop hardware in it, and it just works off the shelf like a console.

Just because you can’t find a use case that fits your needs doesn’t mean it won’t fit anyone’s needs.


You need to realize that you’re not always going to be the target audience.


I miss that big bastard. Everything these days causes my hands to cramp up because they’re too small.



They’re still going to be making a profit off of it. I’d be shocked if it’s below $600.


With those specs there’s no way it’s going to beat console prices. The CPU alone is ~$200 retail.


Take a look at point-and-click adventure games. Deponia is a good example of this.




I’m being the numbers are pumped up by Deck users who aren’t really using Linux for desktop use.



Basic tasks like that aren’t super resource heavy, so I don’t think it would impact hardware requirements all that much.

Training the models is the most resource intensive part.


I’m curious how they manage to confirm age without PII.



I wasn’t paying super close attention to the puzzle ones, but it happened fairly early in the game.

The document one was only obvious because the streamer reads everything out loud, and he often struggles a bit, and this time the struggle was because of missing words. It’s possible that your brain just filled in the gaps for you.


My wife is watching a streamer play it on easy mode, and even that seems ridiculously hard.

The biggest issue I’ve seen outside of the difficulty level is the Japanese characters in some puzzles aren’t translated, and knowing what they mean is important to solving them.

The translations for documents and such are also pretty bad, often omitting words that are necessary for it to make sense.
