I can’t seem to find it, but I think it was James Gosling, where he was blocked from reviewing code at Google because he hadn’t gone through the company’s approval process. I hope this wasn’t a myth I’ve been carrying on for this long.

I really appreciate you linking studies about this topic, as finding this kind of research can be daunting. Those looks like really interesting reads.

Is a cis-gendered woman who had a hysterectomy, not a woman?

Is anyone who doesn’t have bottom surgery a woman? Is a man who takes testosterone pills for erectile dysfunction, a woman?

A post-menopausal grandmother is not a woman? A flat chested woman, is not a woman? A woman born without a uterus is not a woman?

Please define what a woman is, without excluding any cis-gendered women.

Regex is Turing Complete after all.

Oh so its just referring to writing the mod’s code in the same file the mod is declared in being bad form? That seems very reasonable; since the point of a module is code separation so it makes sense to always put it in its own file. Good, I’m already doing that at least!

I don’t understand how to follow this bullet point that I was replying to.

do not use mod unless it’s test for the current module. No I don’t want to Star Wars scroll your 1000 line file. Split it.

I already know what mod does in a basic sense, I wanted to know what the commenter meant by this.

I don’t know enough Rust to understand by what you mean by the last one. My understanding was that mod name was just declaring the module that this file depends on. Could you explain what I should do instead? Since your other statements I totally agree with, I should probably agree with the last one.

Here’s a link to an instance of radicle for Yuzu. It’s a p2p git server implementation. I haven’t looked too much into it yet, but the tech seems interesting.

Would you consider a boycott a form of protest? There are many ways to show disapproval, and marching in the streets is only one of them.

What is the difference between “religious fairness testing” and protesting? Is a protest not just an active resistance to the current legal status quo? How is a lawsuit not a protest?

My experience around any opinion where there is a default option, the vast majority will accept the default without thinking. Then when presented with an alternative by someone who has actively chosen to not chose the default, people become highly defensive as if they did do their due diligence, whether or not they actually did. Depending on where you live, the defaults change, but being that humans are tribal, differences in lifestyle naturally create friction. In parts of America, you drive an SUV, use an iPhone, and eat meat. Whether or not they actively or passively chose that lifestyle, when someone doesn’t conform to what is expected there will be friction. How people react to that friction is up to them, but again, the default is to be critical of them and encourage conformity.

Yes there is precedent because in those cases you need a unique address historically. Evener commit within the project needs a unique hash for as long as the project exists. However, a unique address needs to be unique for the time it is being used.

George Washington needs to have his commit to the Linux kernel maintained, but we don’t need to keep his phone number locked away forever. He can’t use that phone number anymore, so someone else can have it. IPv6 is more than enough address space, so long as the dead don’t need to keep their 2 billion addresses for themselves.

IPv6 has a maximum number of addresses of 2^64, or 18,446,744,073,709,551,616. Enough addresses that all 9 billion people on earth could each own 2 billion unique address. A theoretical IPv32 is wholly unnecessary for a very very long time.

So computers can share IP’s then right? By your example they are sharing their public IP. From the perspective of the server you are connecting to, all the machines on your LAN have the same IP. Same way multiple physical phones can be connected to a single landline, all those phones share the same number.

The paywall as far as I know isn’t that much of problem. Cemu has/had a paywall for years. Several other, though less successful, emulators have had paywalled content/early access as well. The BLEEM emulator that was brought to court was a paid commercial product. So that currently is perfectly legal within the jurisdiction of those cases. Nintendo’s case against Yuzu was about piracy/DRM circumvention. That wasn’t brought to court, so we don’t know the outcome however.

I don’t believe Yuzu went to court, but that was the accusation Nintendo was suing them over. Ryujinx wasn’t sued, so Nintendo either didn’t believe they had done the same, or didn’t care. We didn’t get to have a discovery process for the case to find out for sure, so we don’t know.

IANAL, but they should be fine since they aren’t decrypting / breaking DRM they same way Yuzu was. They are a much cleaner codebase, much more similar to mGBA and Dolphin.
