In the retro gaming community, we don't say goodbye; we say "emu later". And I think that's beautiful.

3DS 

literally the only correct update Nintendo could've released for the 3DS was one which opened up the firmware at least a little more, and/or removed restrictions to playing games (I'm almost sure that there are still cross-region restrictions, and so removing them would be the correct option)

When a device is past its end of its lifecycle like that you don't lock it down more, you give people the tools to still re-use it

You're just making more E-waste otherwise

Literal Jesus fucking Christ

Nintendo: 3DS store closed, no more digital only games :)

Users: Well at least we can still mod our consoles, it's not like anyone is losing money, since we literally cannot buy these games anymo-

Nintendo: :)))

The #curl graph we always get to debate over. Number of *C mistakes* vs *non-C mistakes* among the existing 145 reported vulnerabilities. Updated with the latest 4 reports, and the LOC graph added as a comparison.

The four noble truths also work as a Hollywood tetrology:

* Suffering
* Suffering: Origins
* The Path to the Doom of Suffering
* The End of Suffering

@topher @lispi314 @rysiek @mmdolbow You can see that everything listed there is Critical and High severity. There can be Moderate and Low severity patches listed, but they usually omit them from the Android Security Bulletin (ASB) to avoid making fixing them mandatory. They backport these ASB patches to older releases. There are no actual LTS releases for older Android versions. Only the latest version has actual releases. Pixels always ship the latest, and that's what is actively developed.

"Oh."

@lydia none of this requires you to be in America. The logic works just as well in London as New York.

I'm just moderately curious if that logic still holds, that's all. Do you live in a city with more than a million people?

@lydia Getting catcalled generally requires you to be walking in a densely populated area, which means a city. But smaller cities are usually driver-focused, so you must be in a megacity.

The only city I know of that's not huge but still has a lot of walking is San Fransisco, so it could be that instead.

(Leaving aside the class and race issues.)

@lydia which of the five most populous cities in the country do you live in?

(Or is it sf instead?)

blocklists might be necessary but the people who enjoy making them are psychopaths lol

👾 a basilisk has a challenge rating of 3 (Monster Manual, 5th Edition) so the so-called Rocco’s Basilisk should be an average challenge for a party of four level 3 adventurers (unless it has been modified to be stronger but I think most would agree the DM of the Universe is extremely hands-off in DMing style.)

therefore anyone afraid of Rocco’s Basilisk must either be lower than a level 3 person or else not have three friends to battle it with.

lewd???? what?????

2043 will be the year of Abstract Syntax Trees ruining Foxboys

@sc_griffith @RileyNorman For Bluesky, probably.

But it will be interesting to see if PBLLCs in general can stay on mission better than ordinary companies. Or even nonprofits.
