  • I wonder how you ever could "upload" a consciousness without Ship-of-Theseusing a Brain.

    Cyberpunk2077 also has this "upload vs copy" issue, but doesn't actually make you think about it too hard.

  • well, doesn't it make sense when the business-model is to recoup R&D cost of the console with expensive games?
    DRM becomes much harder once you can't trust the system anymore.

    Nintendo tried to lock the system down, and got fucked by NVIDIA.

  • It's possible but is a lot more complicated with later switches.
    First gen was super easy. I think current one needs a mod-chip installed to Boot custom Firmware (which you need for ROMs)

  • I believe sky mentioned that the jump-start sensors didn't trip, indicating that he didn't cross (or touch?) the line.

    Basically he stopped far enough back that his movement did not leave his designated area.

  • But they also showed with what they will come for you.
    If you outsource decryption from emulation, they can't do it (this way) again

  • I don't think so.
    But maybe Emulators need to change how they work.
    Externalize a small, relatively simple tool to decrypt the ROM.
    and a complicated, actively developed Emulator, that can only read decrypted ROMs.

    With that, the Emulator shouldn't be attackable the same way yuzu was.

  • Oh, I mean there's nothing there.

    A Court Document shows that Yuzu got a lawyer and will answer within 60 days of 2024-02-27.

    The Answer will be the interesting bit. It may indicate if they wish to fight, or if they deem it not worth the effort.

  • Curious if this will fix my one issue I have with Finamp.

    I have some quite large playlists I'd like to listen on shuffle. Finamp doesn't do that well at all. (It seems it only shuffles what it has cached or something, as it seems to shuffle "only" the first 100 or so songs. of 3000+)

  • Yes, most people are not interesting. True for Emi/Imi-gration as well as dating. And in both cases it's tough to hear.

  • You largely can choose the provider of this service, but they will also choose you (or not).
    And you can not refrain from the service while being in the community of those that don't refrain. In practice there are (nearly) no places where the community as a whole chooses to refrain.

    If you're in a country with compulsory military service, make yourself interesting for other countries and leave.

  • Doesn't seem to be a flattering angle. front view doesn't seem as bad (but still wide).
    Compared to the F35 from a bad angle.

    But the twin-engine design on both sides of the pilot (unlike a J20) will probably just make for a wider body as well.

  • I think that 3d printing is not food safe because of the layers.
    One can decide for themselves if they want to take that risk, but commercially selling medical stuff with those issues would not be my cup of tea.

    /e oops, replied to the Not instead of OP.

  • Seems reasonable for all involved imho.

    Yes, Texas Parks and Recreation Wildlife should take time to think about the offer. Document the reasons why they take it etc. Nobody would want Protected wetland to be swapped for a Parking lot that nobody has the money to demolish to return to nature, or any suspicion of anything like it.

    SpaceX is not going to withdraw the offer anyway, they can take the time, the Land up north is worth much less to SpaceX than the one adjacent to their Spaceport.

  • So Apple still wants to have the power to reject apps from third party app stores.

    Curious if that will pass the EUs "Gatekeeper Law", when they explicitly want to stay the gatekeeper, even if unpaid.

  • Well, all of these companies intentionally try to lock the users into them, by making their files as unreadable as possible.

    No Company wants to lose access to all of their models.

  • There are also still a lot of QoL issues with the GUI and no real attempt to bring in influences and widgets from direct modeling. FreeCAD is pure of heart and pure of thought, but I’m not sure I’m quite there, though I can at least imagine it now

    fyi, there is now ondsel
    based on FreeCAD, their release introduction reads:

    So our thinking was: we should focus on a polished user experience and features that are essential to professional use. Let’s build something we feel good about recommending it to someone working on a deadline. And let’s build a service for vaulting and collaboration.

    ..

    Our primary objective is to provide polish and sorely missing features — that’s a large part of the added value. We’ve made big and small changes in the upstream project, but the four vital projects for us have been toponaming, integrated assembly workbench, UX/UI, and collaboration.

    full Article / release notes

    So working exactly on what most consider FreeCADs weaknesses I'd say

    Unfortunately toponaming is still not done for either. That will be a huge leap in usefulness for me.
    (fixes models breaking when their topology changes)

  • Infill has massively diminishing returns. I don't think 100% is required. Usually it's much better to increase the number outer layers.
    That said, depending on the cost scaling, the possibly positive effects of extra mass, and how much I want to avoid a second attempt, massive objects can make some sense.

    PLA becomes brittle with moisture (from your hands and/or air). I would recomment PETG / ASA / ABS (ascending order).

    Yes, basically all CAD and slicers (3d-printer software) can mirror. PrusaSlicer for example can mirror and then save to stl again.

  • Uhh that's nice.
    Even better if the same concept could work on Nintendo's next gen coming up

  • It's not necessary.
    At best it's because this way they don't have to differentiate between networks, and make the system a bit easier for Bambi themselves.
    At worst they want to lock you into an ecosystem they want to build and steal a ton of models people make.
