Nintendo is the worst, and your entire gaming experience will be better on Yuzu or Ryujinx.

Sad to see this happen to the Yuzu squad.


Nintendo is the worst, and your entire gaming experience will be better on Yuzu or Ryujinx.

Is it a boycott if you are still playing the games?


It's just an attempt at justifying their piracy, you see it any yuzu related discussion on reddit especially.

My biggest issue with it is how people almost act like they're entitled to their stealing.


I pay for all the games I play, sometimes going way out of my way to do so (obscure japaese studios who don't sell outside), but I will never pay a company that attacks my rights. I say that as an x-nintindo superfan who owned every generation and 100s of games up until the wii when I learned of nintendo's outright delusional takes on reality and there abuse and misuse of laws and the legal system.

You are free to also delude yourself and call it piracy and "stealing" all you want, but emulation and playing ripped games absolutely is - and will hopefully remain - your right.

(i buy used games and use yuzu to play them. fuck nintendo.)


<loves playing Nintendo games> “Nintendo is the worst”


I bet you thought you got him. My mans just learned that you can like a game without liking the company that makes the game


Rather, multiple companies make games for one console. If you buy those games not made by Nintendo from sources other than Nintendo's shops then you can boycott Nintendo without boycotting non-Nintendo game developers.


I believe developers on consoles always pay the console manufacturer a fee per-copy, so not so much, but that's probably the way that pays Nintendo the least.

EDIT: Just remembered the second hand market. Carry on.


I think their point is that you're not taking a principled stand by stealing. If it matters enough to you to "boycott" the company, walk the walk and don't play the games by any means.


There might not be copyright infringement involved, so "stealing" is an unnecessary assumption (on top of being a misleading term for copyright infringement). Since Nintendo isn't the only source for games that run on Nintendo consoles, Nintendo might not get money from the self-proclaimed boycotter. But since there's no guarantee that Nintendo won't get money from the self-proclaimed either, I can understand why people would view the following scenario as cognitively dissonant:

  A person only buys physical copies of non-Nintendo-made games which run on Nintendo devices from people reselling legally-distributed copies (legal in the US with the first-sale doctrine, which unfortunately doesn't apply to digital copies). The person plays those games by ripping the files and running them on third-party emulators. The person publicly states that they boycott Nintendo the company and that they play non-Nintendo-games made for Nintendo consoles. Resellers might or might not spend their money on more Nintendo games.
By the way, iamunr didn't claim to boycott Nintendo. Perhaps iamunr buys Nintendo games but plays them on emulators. throwaway48r7r didn't provide any information about whether they'll continue playing non-Nintendo-made games for Nintendo consoles.


"Your entire gaming experience will be better if you spend twice as much on new hardware than something which came out 7 years ago, and also forfeit a bunch of other switch features like motion controls and detachable joycons"


It could also be argued that a government body responsible for regulating crime suggests you use an ad block.

I’ve been noticing this quite a lot lately, on various searches.


Can you give example searches? OP provides none so we can't reproduce.

This is unusual and has been happening regularly for me over the past week

EDIT: This isn't malware. Reproducible on my phone.

This is based on my Google account, my dev-based account returns the majority of results as malicious. My personal account returns relevant results.


I see those on page 4 and 5 of the search results. Thanks to Google for hiding the full url which would make them easier to identify as untrustworty.

Hit the drop down error to the right of the shortened url to see the cached page.


First result is the same for me, but the rest of it is very different. Strange!

Looking at some of the results from your screenshot more closely, they appear to be hacked Plesk[0] sites like geocrasher describes here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30117918

I've used this for ages.


Thanks for sharing this!


I feel similarly.

Great looking product, I'd love to have a free version to glance at in my menu bar...

but for the most part Apple Watch covers my needs.



Depending on what you interpreted the OP as requesting, this is either a great recommendation or a hilarious dig against utility-first CSS.


I tried this just last week, and I've gotta say, out of all the templates and frameworks out there these were the easiest to use and tweak.

Because it really is just HTML with utility classes, you never end up in a situation where you have, say, a "card class" you can't really override without a bunch of `!important`s.


Is there something like this for Bootstrap?



Amazing, thank you!


Many of the components in Tailwind UI were already in Bootstrap. There's also a ton of free and commercial themes for Bootstrap (themeforest.net, themes.getbootstrap.com, creativemarket.com, creativetim.com, etc)


Such a sad part of iOS.

I have several high quality photo apps I prefer, and almost always end up using the default one because its easier to access.


To be fair, Android also doesn’t make third party camera apps accessible while locked.


Just installed a 3rd party app on my pixel 3, made it the default and tried this. Worked just fine and popped up the 3rd party app.


But why bring up Android at all? Halide doesn't work on Android and this entire discussion is about iOS.


I can bind double-tap on the side key to any app, and my lock screen launcher can have any complication it likes. So, yes?


That's not true. You can change the lockscreen shortcuts on Samsung phones for example
