  • Not only that, but aside from fossil fuels, what’s the next worst culprit of greenhouse gas emissions? Fashion. Our practices in producing cheap, poorly made replaceable clothes and not making the effort into at least splashing out into clothes that last longer and maybe even repairing what we’ve got is a huge problem.

    Most pairs of shoes I buy often don’t last longer than 3 months. And when I do finally get one that lasts longer I wear them till the soles fall out of them. My current pair I’ve had for at least 2-3 years.



  • Yes it was, but in some ways Nintendo still succeeded In what I believe is their goal - to scatter the developers.

    By shutting down Yuzu, they fragmented everyone into forking their own copies and competing to become the next Yuzu.

    What’s more of a threat to them? One emulator with thousands of contributors, or 1000 emulators with 2-5 contributors each?

    The best thing about open source is the pooling of developers and resources. While forking is neither a good nor a bad thing, it does tend to break up the developer pool.

    It could take anywhere from months to years if at all for everyone to finally settle on a single fork and get back to the level of developer pool that originally existed - then if that happens, Nintendo can come along and do it all over again, at least untill they don’t see the value in continuing.













  • Wat.

    The only one who even remotely deserves the peace prize is Assange.

    The rest have all been sowing more division among lines than bringing people together. At least Wikileaks was invented to inform the public about shady shit going on in government.

    That said it’s not necessarily been a good thing as wars can easily happen directly as a result of leaked documents. Every government has secrets. And sometimes rooting out corruption can be pretty damned violent.

    However Assange never meant to sow discord, only to inform people of problems and issues that were kept under wraps - the people deserved to know this information, even if it resulted in violent rioting.
