That’s not how people work in these situations. Neither party is going to act reasonably here, I can pretty much guarantee that from personal experience on both sides of that scenario.
Except for the fact that it makes a bunch of money you mean?
Literally had a stroke and lost part of his brain and became an asshole who’s a lot less empathetic. It, sadly, happens with strokes.
SUPPLIES!
It’s a tried and true gameplay for fascists throughout history.
They’re all typically narcissists, and they all feel like a group wronged them somehow. It’s their perceived right to punish them when they gain power for the imagined transgressions they made because they didn’t give them what they wanted.
Hitler hated Jews because he believed they were the reason he was unsuccessful in his career and other endeavors and blamed their machinations for his failures.
This is the correct answer. It sounds like they’re admitting to perjury. So the case needs to be re-evaluated or set for a mistrial if it was a critical witness testimony that’s been proven to be lying under oath.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH GENEEEEEEEE!!!
Look, I don’t know what to tell you here. You’re downvoting me (or someone is) because you’re not understanding the point of what they’re doing. That’s ok, but it’s not ok to claim victory here because you don’t understand the point of what they’re doing, or you’re not knowledgeable about the intricacies of the retro gaming/emulation world.
It’s not to make an emulator for the general public. It’s to take an original board, and put it into a SFF (Small Form Factor) and have a perfect, 1:1 system that can play any Saturn game. Any game. No chipset issues. And it looks like an original Saturn, just smaller.
This appeals to a very specific set of people who care about compatibility and functionality of the games they’re playing.
It’s not a general emulator or general device. If you want one of those, you can already build one.
It’s a thing that does exactly what it says it does. And it appeals to a very specific type of crowd. Which is, apparently, not you. That’s ok. But don’t trash it just because you don’t understand it.
You can do a perfect ROM compression of the games you own on disk (or find one someone else did), and then play them on this sega saturn console and achieve 100% compatibility with the original game. This is not something an emulator can do. It can get close, but it will not reach 100% without the original hardware/chipset (usually).
Not exactly. Emulating the board and chipset is where a lot of emulation issues show up. ROMs are generally pretty easy to serialize/copy around. It’s the chipset/boards that are tricky and generally requires the boards being destroyed when reverse engineering them to figure out how to emulate the chipset features.
This would be a “perfect” emulation of any Saturn ROM/Game/whatever.
That can only be done with original hardware. Emulators get close, but all they can ever get is “close”. New versions of the emulator chipsets come out to address and fix bugs or API issues that are discovered later as additional games are played on the emulator.
It’s why not all games run on all emulators. There’s a lot of subsets based on chip compatibility and specifically, how close it is to the original thing that will only work on some subset of games; and you might need a different emulator to run the other games for a platform because of compatibility issues.
So, again, this is not an emulator.
This is the real deal. Just smaller.
Running a ROM on it is not emulating. It’s running a game file on the original hardware, and the compatibility will be 100%, instead of some smaller % that an emulated board/chipset would have.
The point is to attempt it and do it with the original hardware without “trimming” the board.
It’s an exercise in space management, not emulation.
Emulation is what it sounds like. Emulating the original thing.
This is the original thing. Just smaller.
Or they took it really, really well.
Fuck Larry Ellison.
Now he’s going for super-villainy against people who’ve never even heard of Oracle.
Hmmm, I guess that makes sense. It’s been a while since I’ve bought a gas mower, roughly the late 90’s/00’s hah, been using electric/battery since then.
Most mower engines are 2-strokes, they’re designed to burn oil as lubrication basically, it’s added to the gas. You don’t need to change the oil. Unless it’s a 4 stroke engine (unusual due to size/complexity), or you’ve got a transmission or some other motorized mechanical behavior.
Wouldn’t let me rent when the housing crash hit and I couldn’t afford the place, wouldn’t let me have friends over late at night because they thought my d&d group were a bunch of drug dealers. All around a miserable experience.
