That's kind of like telling a poor person they could always go back to school and study to become a doctor, i.e., technically possible but extremely difficult. My understanding is that it is next to impossible to immigrate to Japan unless you have a Japanese parent or are rich and/or a celeb, but would love to be proven wrong! I would love to live there!
Is there a term for humor that is ruined by terrible grammar and diction?
Oh it’s a term linked to that industry…
...It's tangentially related to the porn industry, but primarily, it is also the actual medical terminology many are probably more familiar with, so still wouldn't be a great idea even in that context. (You get a pass if English is not your first language, otherwise, it should be fairly common knowledge.)
Crazy, how in the heck did he spin that to make himself look good?
Obligatory:
True. Was playing Arkham Knight the other day and thought this nine year old game looked better than at least half of current gen games.
I have a vague recollection about the Nesticle drama, but also don't recall the details.
I know the emulator scene precedes UltraHLE by at least several years. Publicity around UltraHLE just made it somewhat mainstream, and Nintendo learned first-hand about the Streisand effect, lol!
I used all of those. Nesticle had that bloody hand as a cursor. Also, Genecyst for Sega Genesis/Master System emulation.
Remember when emulation really blew up after UltraHLE successfully ran Ocarina of Time? That was when I first became aware of emulators (IIRC, it was front page news on IGN). Nintendo filed a lawsuit and took UltraHLE down, but we all know how that turned out (at this point, I believe I've lost count of how many N64 emulators were developed in the ensuing years). This recent Yuzu/Ryujinx drama is just history repeating itself. Emulation will never die.
There’s just absolutely no way that the money free world they describe is good for everyone.
Can you elaborate, please? In a hypothetical future where money doesn't exist and technology has granted everyone the means and freedom to pursue their own interests (as long as those interests aren't harmful to others, of course), I'm having difficulty understanding why that wouldn't be amazing. Maybe not perfect, but vastly improved over what we're stuck with now.
Thanks for the thoughtful response! I will keep this in mind (I do have a bachelor's and am a former SE, currently sysadmin).
