Uhhh.. he literally moderated the r/SwitchPirates subreddit and had ties to multiple pirate shops that distributed the pirated games.

I don't support Nintendo's lawsuits, but people are making it sound like they're going after some random Joe who just mentioned pirating games in a comment or two. Unless you're moderating one of the biggest Nintendo pirating communities or working to distribute pirated games, AND are really bad with op-sec, you're probably fine.

Personally I just use an ad blocker

I've been out of the game for a few years, who's TG?

Probably not. If a virus is too deadly, it kills its hosts before it can spread. That's why SARS didn't turn into a pandemic.

I highly doubt it. The NES has been completely reverse engineered for decades, there really isn't any reason to use proprietary code for an emulator for it.

They don't actually provide decryption keys, the user has to either extract them from their own Switch or find them elsewhere online. However, it could be argued by Nintendo that using an unreleased game ROM for testing proves that the devs themselves were guilty of piracy, and were therefore somehow condoning the use of their emulator for piracy.

Either way, we won't know how well Nintendo's arguments would have held up in court, because the devs settled rather than fight it out.

It was a settlement. The devs decided, for reasons that are not public, that it would be easier to just pay Nintendo some money and take down the emulator than to fight them in court. It's very possible (even likely) that they figured it would be more expensive to fight Nintendo's lawyers than to just pay a fixed amount up front.

These are pretty interesting. It seems to listen to race requests, but didnt seem to pay much attention to "gay" or "straight". It just straight up rendered a thruple for one of them.

Side note, the "American couple" one is absolutely hilarious because it's so over exaggerated.

I have a 500/500 fiber connection, so generally a torrent download is the only thing that can actually make use of the entire capacity. So, I usually cap download speeds at 350Mbps as to not choke out the rest of my devices, but I leave upload uncapped because it never reaches high enough to have a noticable effect.

I mean, they never claimed it was to protect users. It was to protect their user's data from being used without paying Reddit. They didn't like that AI companies were using Reddit content as a free source of training data, they never gave a shit about their users' privacy.

I wouldn't expect much sound, water is very dense so only very low frequencies can effectively travel through it. From the pictures, this thing doesn't seem big enough to make much of an impact in that regard. As for marine life, it would probably be a matter of how fast it travels underwater, which the article unfortunately doesn't mention.

Okay so genuine question from someone who's used various distros for all sorts of things over the years, just never as a daily driver. What sorts of things have caused your revulsion towards Windows? Aside from Microsoft's bullcrap like Alexa or MS Store ads which can all be disabled, I've personally never had enough of a problem with Windows that justified the effort required to move away from it. And I would consider myself a power user who loves to customize things.

Again, I just want to genuinely understand what sorts of problems people have that cause them to hate using Windows that much, even if they're just subjective things.
