  • Except all problems of a windows system werent on win7. Bloat? Minimal, was mostly the theme that was heavy but could be disabled. Forced updates? Didnt exist yet. Hardware requirements? A running pc. Half assed new ui? Didnt exist yet. Confusing configs that were all over the place? Nope, started in win8 and 10. Software comparability? 90% hell yes.

    Win7 was a polished vista, with loads of bloat removed, performance improvements and 1000% more stable.
    Win8 started screwing with shit and moving stuff partly and it went downhill from there.

    And im also comparing it to os' of the time. Clearly with todays tech id pick a linux over win7 anyday, but in those days win7 was king

  • Tbf, win7 was the best os i ever used. Only to be royally fucked by win8, win10 and win11. Oh how it has fallen...

  • Soooo... Regular gut biome already does this? Or are they talking about the e.coli that gives you the shits and food poisoning? Cause if its the latter, yes it will clean you quickly... Together will all liquids in your digestive system

  • Those games had a publisher telling him no to features and needing to finish existing stuff and not have scope creep to begin with. I said unchained peter for a reason :p

  • Pretty sure its the unchained peter molyneux that was the birth and death of star citizen's development :p

  • Rip lemm.ee
    May all users find a new home, have the same experiences and thanks for all the mods and admins on lemm.ee to have given so many people a home o7

  • Oh ye, makes sense. I shoot at a foam target we hung between 2 trees because we dont like the things you shoot at, but i imagine arrows die quickly haha.
    Even we destroy each other's arrows once in a while haha

  • Seeing how my take down recurve easily cost 200, youve been set for life i think haha

  • What is defined as copy here? Cartridge data (game data, not firmware etc) is encrypted and can only be accessed by a protocol that is like spi, but is proprietary, by a specific chip running nintendo code. Or is a copy a full backup of everything on the chip?
    Is the copy a raw copy? Has the data been modified/decrypted/or any algorithm processed it?
    These things define wether a copy falls under this or not. Check what the fineprint or laws defines what ' a copy' is exactly in this case.
    If it doesnt, what i mentioned are important to see if what you said apply here or not.

    Like @DarkMetatron@feddit.org said, its only legal if nothing is done with the data. Any decryption using a nintendo key is infact, illegal, and falls under piracy.

    This is why dolphin was removed from steam, because they do exactly that. Decrypt the data to use it.

    If the process of dumping does any encryption or decryption, you also get in trouble in what they said.

    These are the laws, and the lawyer you asked this too must not have been specialised in ip law, copyright and games, or doesnt know the technical details to decide on this.

    The mig chip uses a proprietary protocol to send data of a partly, semi decrypted, game image. That will not go well in court, no matter if the rom was obtained legally.

  • Oh thank god, i thought i was insane for hearing yarrey

  • Interesting writeup with some interesting techniques. I should read these some more

  • Even if that is legal (it isnt), but it will be circumvention of encryption at worst and recreation of protected algorithms, code and keys in a non-nintendo product at best ( and thats before talking about game cartridge content ).
    Last i checked that is still illegal hehe

  • Same. I agree that people are too stupid to know what apps they should use. But that also includes those using some of apples closed down, limited apps and features haha

  • And diablo 1 has devilution ( or whatever the name was ), which is cross platform and works fiiiine

  • Wait, that works now? Ive seen the project few years ago but it wasnt good enough then. Awesome! I have to build that at home ^^

  • Some.of them are still locked up too, no?

  • Even today i find it important as the knowledge of how things work is vanishing and many just accept it works. But how will we build upon an idea if everyone forgets how it works?
    There is also the idea within software that layers of bodgework upon one another creates overcomplex and unstable software. Thats everything but software you want to ship.
    I understand you dont want all hobby work to reach professional levels, specially if youre trying something new! Thats ok!

    Its just once you reach a certain level things have to change to make it not suck, dont build on that :')
    Also one of the reasons i dont like retroarch.
    But i will accept they fill a need that is very much wanted and needed by people and there isnt really anything like it

  • I get that, but imo thats dangerous. I will admit i live for tech and i get the basics of it all but understanding it is imo important when changing such settings because it can create other issues too.

    But maybe im not the correct person to remark on this because i have a distaste for retroarch :p

  • I find this kinda.. Bullshit.
    Bluetooth controller's lag does not get lowered by by turning on game mode on your tv. All you did was lower the response time of your tv to display the image quicker ( by turning off some image processing ). Your bluetooth controller will still lag lol.

    As for the settings in retroarch, that could change when it'll process the input and can lower the lag, but without a list of the settings, im calling bs there too.

    Edit: frame delay? Really? That will just delay the frame so its more in sync with input because input processing is not in sync. Nice one

  • Let me be devil's advocate here for a sec.
    Yes it is. Unless a federal law breaks any federal law, international laws, treaties or human rights its latterly the highest level of law in a democratic country in this modern world.

    (And also, i agree with the major. If your community thrives or immigrants fills gaps in the community then fucking let them. Your community is better for it)
