Unironically I like that

It would be a big, expensive case, and as there are well-funded organisations that rely on the precedent not being set against them in both directions, both sides would get interested third parties funding their legal fees. No one wants that, so Nintendo stick to claiming emulators are illegal on their website

I would assume particularly that no one who has big interests there wants it to go to court because once there’s a ruling and a precedent is set it becomes much harder to change if you’re on the losing side. So, for example, if game publishers lost and it was clearly ruled legal that consumers have a right to make software work with hardware that the software was never intended for, that would make it much harder for publishers to fight emulators without some additional problem like trademark infringement. The advice I’ve heard is unless you can be absolutely certain how a judge will rule, you want to avoid going to court because strange and unexpected things can happen in a courtroom that can be very bad for you.

I think it peaked around 6 months, then got better and the teeth less sharp. But we definitely got a “teenager” closer to 2-3 years.

I think the fix was to put a limit on the script, just have it run a couple times, the same as it would during the day, not just keep going until it gets stopped.

And at those prices I’ve bought it at least twice

I think the bug and the cost were not that the cost was different at that time of day, but that by running at night without worry of interruption her script ran multiple times doing upload after upload after upload. If it had been during the day they would only have a few succeed because the line would get interrupted or couldn’t be used. Maybe during the day they’d only succeed on 3-5 calls but at night the script was making 50, 60, maybe even 70 calls.

Yes, but you said you were using Resolve for color grading. My understanding is you should still be able to use that on Linux, but I haven’t tried it yet myself.

If you’re willing to consider something not Wear OS, Garmin watches offer many of the same features and typically multiple days of battery life.

It’s not FOSS (IIRC) but I think Resolve is fully available on Linux?

What a great name!

TIL Zynga still exists

I also find it interesting that the Steam Deck OLED has a smaller battery but gets longer life on the same OS

Yes, that is surprising; I’m fairly certain they were involved in developing Bonjour also

internet.website is available to register but I checked a couple registrars and they all seem to have it as a premium domain that costs several thousand to register.

Should be torrenting “Blank Space” by Taylor Swift

I was notified about 3 or 4 breaches just last year, some from companies I’d never even heard of but had my info.

If you’re okay with writing a little HTML and just don’t want to deal with writing/designing the CSS, I recently found out about HTML5 UP, which has a bunch of Creative Commons Attribution 3.0-licensed templates. It’s fairly straightforward to modify the content if you understand the HTML, and then you can host it for free as a static page at any number of places like GitHub Pages or Cloudflare Pages.

If you don’t want to have the CC-By attribution on the webpage, the designer also offers a service called Pixelarity with the same templates and more for a $19/quarter non-renewing subscription. You can continue using the templates even after the subscription expires and can keep making new sites with any template you already downloaded, you just don’t get any updates or tech support when the subscription expires. Upload to one of those free static hosts and it’s dramatically cheaper than Ghost or WordPress, and probably less work than a static site generator for something that’s not changing often.

Maybe the kind of people/organizations who do karma farming on Reddit haven’t figured out that’s meaningless here

Yeah, I’ve never played Madden online. That’s very much a couch game to me still. Not that I’ve played it much in years. I picked up my first copy in over a decade a couple years ago when it was on sale at the end of the season.

I haven’t seen it mentioned and feel like it should count, since it really just had a solo programmer working with a graphic designer and musician, but RollerCoaster Tycoon and RollerCoaster Tycoon 2 took a big chunk of my gaming time.
