The great thing about RISC-V if you care about sovereignty in an age where CPUs run the world is that it’s an open standard. Contrast this with x86 which is owned in some part by US-based Intel and some part by US-based AMD as well as ARM which is owned by Japanese-owned, UK-based Arm Holdings. If you want to use x86, you’re shelling out license money to Intel and AMD, and if you want to use ARM, you’re shelling out license money to Arm Holdings. You never truly “own” what you’re producing.

Being pro-Hamas also wouldn’t be a crime, even if it’d be an asinine stance.

Fun facts:

1. Yes, that is a framed picture of a spoon.
2. This is because the props people went down to a nearby furniture store and got whatever they needed, but they never replaced the stock photos inside with anything.
3. There are multiple shots in this movie featuring framed pictures of spoons.
4. It’s a tradition at live screenings of The Room to hurl spoons at the screen during scenes where these are visible.

Guys, come on, this is “slap you across the face with their cock” levels of satire. And tbh it’s pretty funny.

Honestly, I’ve gone from not knowing who PCC is to hating her work for its mediocrity to subtly appreciating that sometimes what the world needs in the face of overwhelming AI slop and neo-Nazi comics is someone whose work may not be the best but who enjoys what they do, puts thought and effort into it, and makes the masses exhale through their nose.

If you want to translate single words, the English Wiktionary is often a good option.

Edit: if you need multi-language to multi-language, the English Wiktionary will only give you multi-language to English. However, like its sister project Wikipedia, there are other Wiktionaries for that. For instance, the French Wiktionary is multi-language to French.

Bruh what? 💀 I chose the highest-profile and arguably best emulators for each major system, let alone that almost every other modern one uses GitHub too. If all of these emulators are flying under the corporate radar, I will deliberately inject myself with rabies and die a slow, agonizing death. I couldn’t come up with this shit if I got cross-faded on meth and fentanyl.

Legitimately shocked that this abject fucking nonsense got three upvotes. Want to know how I know Sony knows PCSX2 exists? Two former PCSX2 developers are working on “ports” (read: shitty, subpar emulation) of PS2 games to the PS5. They got their jobs because of their work on PCSX2.

Edit: I’m going to go off a bit more, actually, because I’m sick of living in an era where zero-information dipshits can just say any unresearched, unsubstantiated bullshit online and put it into immediate contention with obvious, demonstrable facts presented with sourcing by a subject matter expert:

• I’ve included a Wikipedia article where applicable; these articles will often have links to these emulators being discussed in popular gaming outlets.
• This doesn’t even count emulators like Snes9x, PCSX-Reloaded, and Project64 which are no longer top-of-class but which have their own Wikipedia articles, were wildly popular in their day, and host their code on GitHub.

Just a reminder don’t have emulators on GitHub.

I don’t like GitHub, but this is simply untrue. We host the PCSX2 project on GitHub, and GitHub even donated some amount at one point to the project. The following major, top-of-class video game console emulators (non-exhaustive) are officially hosted on GitHub:

PlayStation:

• DuckStation (PSX/PSOne)
• PCSX2 (PS2) (Wikipedia article)

Atari:

Keep in mind that I’ve only chosen what I believe is the top one or one of the top ones from major consoles. If I could pick multiple per console, this list would be a mile long.

Correct, you’re not required to swear on the Internet. That’s why there are a trillion other words to use if you’re not comfortable with it. “This kind of stupid packing foam.” “This kind of annoying packing foam.” “This kind of obnoxious packing foam.” If you want to say “fucking”, then you can just say “This kind of fucking packing foam.” The censorship is useless and distracting. Commit to the word you want to say or use another word; nobody’s going to punish you for swearsies here, and nobody’s going to punish you for not swearsies.

OP, it’s okay, you can swear on the Internet.

Unequivocally, yes you are, and at that, you’re one of the most agonizingly stubborn and disinformed ones I’ve ever talked to.

Edit: Sharing this conversation here in the context of them being banned from /c/vegan so users can understand how completely full of shit this user is (yes, their actual argument they started at /c/vegan is that vegans starting from a position of “humans have rights” is a flawed position to start from and thus invalidates their argument for veganism):

Edit 2: Oh, and they have this thing where they like to reply to a single comment with several comments while claiming it’s because they “don’t want to engage in a Gish gallop” (paraphrased), meanwhile facilitating a Gish gallop by making an unfollowable branching tree of comments.

And not just the men…
