Linux@programming.dev•ML-LIB: Machine Learning Library Proposed For The Linux KernelEnglish
5 monthsI fully agree but I can’t help myself and have to make this nitpick:
Replacing workers could be the best thing ever if we had a better system to distribute the results of work being done.
The introduction of languages will continue until morale improves!
He really put the devs into the crab timeout cornet

Therefore Nintendo does that only if they are 100% certain, not just to intimidate like Rockstar does.
Why would Nintendo be so different from Rockstar? Why would Nintendo not use lawsuits just to intimindate? Rockstar too is a company with many the same interests as Nintendo, and I’m sure their lawyers are not cheap either.
Yet, Nintendo did not go to court and wanted to do this with a settlement.
That just proves the point that the threat of a lawsuit is enough to coerce people into submission though. As another example RyujinX e.g. just caved without any struggle.
And the brought up case of Yuzu does not apply here, because that was not just intimidation, that was because the Yuzu developers themselves shared Tears of the Kingdom millionth of times in Discord.
This has nothing to do with the legality of their emulator project. Nintendo used their power to extort more concessions from the devs. It also shows how Nintendo isn’t afraid to use the uneven power balance to their advantage.

I’m gonna hazard a guess and claim that they would go for a copyright infringement claim, as they always do. Again: it does not matter, if they are actually in the right. Even the threat of being sued for something completely made up is still a credible threat if the relative costs are that unevenly matched. Nintendo doesn’t give a shit about what these lawyers cost, even if they lose the lawsuit in the end. The goal isn’t winning the lawsuit. The goal is intimidation, wasting your ressources, time and money. Which they also achive when they lose the lawsuit.

Sued for what? There is nothing Nintendo can sue for. Also we talked about Cease and Desist before, not sueing.
A c&d is a precursor of being sued. If you do not cease and desist, what is the result of that?
Also can you explain me, if you are right, why Nintendo didn’t do that with prior decompilation projects of Mario and Zelda games that reached 100% and are played on a variety of systems now?
I can explain to you, that Nintendo is famous for suing people implementing emulators of their platforms and is also going after things like palworld. It is new information to me, that these decompilation projects exist. I guess they are niche enough to not be interesting to nintendo right now. This does not remove all the other cases where nintendo went after people with lawsuits.

The experience and risks of being sued depends heavily on the amount of money you have. Just being sued, even if eventually unsubstantiated, sucks hard. It consumes time, energy, and money, and all this time you live with the “but what if I get the one bad judge?”

Nah, tail recursion optimization can just reuse the same stack frame again and again. It’s going to loop until it wraps around what ever integer width it has and then tells you if the biggest integer is even or odd. Or, if it’s nice, it’s going to complain about the wrap around

The 1% that allows Linux to run on the New macbooks if i understand asahi Linux correctly
The only thing I’m missing in the CLI is easy picking and choosing which change to include in a commit on a more fine grained basis than files. I sometimes have a changed file and the changes fix different issues and thus should get separate commits but with the CLI I can’t easily select the changes to be staged. At least not AFAIK.
Edit: Richards law of posting something wrong to get fast correct answers seems to stay true, even on lemmy. Thanks for teaching me something today <3

Wow. That is a collection of footguns seeking it’s contender.
You know I always think “wow now he’s gone full mask off” and then he does another thing.
There’s a big difference between alone and lonely, at least for me. And I quite enjoy being alone for extended periods of time. So that’s not a con for me.
That aside, it’s what I’m good at. And it feels good to do something for a living that I’m good at.
Didn’t Munich famously switch back to windows?
That’s not really true. Without some fragmentation there is no need for standards


As long as the default recommendation is to use authenticator apps on your main device I’ll see this as a “could be good if implemented correctly, which it isn’t, so it isn’t good”
