what? whaddya mean? the fact that it exists?

https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2023/05/the-solid-legal-theory-behind-nintendos-new-emulator-takedown-effort/

or the fact that nintendo doesn’t want it to “spread” Come here without defending big megacorpo or leave please

they are going after the developers that make it possible to play your emulated game…

they aren’t selling all their games, and never have. ever wanted to play earthbound? you can’t legally…

if you want to blame me for “rehashing arguments” then maybe look where you are first, and then read my comment. this isn’t a place for respecting copyright, or corporations fighting against preservation.

feel free to check out my other comment on this post. where I link to nintendo using pirated roms and selling it back to us.

point is to stop giving the rich ass company any benefit of doubt.

how did lemmy piracy suddenly turn to defending nintendo…

nintendo pulls rom sites down, sure - it’s their shit (https://www.pcworld.com/article/402404/nintendo-suit-rom-emulation-game-preservation.html)

Nintendo is using roms from these sites to sell to consumers within their own “ecosystem” (https://www.eurogamer.net/did-nintendo-download-a-mario-rom-and-sell-it-back-to-us)

Not even close to all of nintendos titles are avaliable on their online stores, and the mini-snes or whatever did not have even close to all their titles.

point is. Nintendo is NOT preserving their own games. And they sue anyone doing anything like preserving it for the public.

They’ve sued multiple times emulator developers, even when it’s completely legal.

(it is 100% legal to emulate, and make emulators.)

Due to the fact that a court case is expensive AF, this usually just kills the emulator group.

we’re mad at nintendo precisely because they do not, themselves preserve games. While they try to sue emulation and game preservers, they also use their ROMs and emulations to sell games to the consumer.

lol, the dog owners say that the parts of the bill not affecting them are good, and the farmers say the parts not affecting them are good.

easy solution. split the bill in two. one for dogs and one for farmers. both pass, and everybody’s unhappy

Even the israeli newspapers are writing this. How anyone can defend this blatant genocide is beyond me.

I mean, this just suits the genociders… No way Israel will accept - and the world just watches.

yea, looks like the website certificate is out of date

if you’ve gotten this far then I recommend picking up a used or super-cheap android phone to root it yourself 😅 it’s probably easier than to give a walkthrough with a stranger, might also have some mistrust

I keep the stuff I download and seed it until I run out of room, I have a TB hdd for movies and such; and since I download like huge files, I usually delete stuff if I don’t care about it a lot

didn’t 1337x have a cryptominer that wasn’t removed by the moderators last year?

no offense, but why would you want that? I main firefox, as it is the superior browser - the only non-chromium browser which in my experience is better for ad blocking, less tracking and a just as quick browsing experience.

what’s the “plus” side for this premium browser?

who is “publishers”? I mean, is this a consortium or smth?

sounds like another attempt at distracting from Ukraine.

Ukraine will win if “the west” supports it. It could have done so easily if Nato mobilized it’s industry.

Russia will not attack Gotland, Sweden is in nato, I’d be signing a death treaty, but it will larp and parade to distract from Ukraine as hard as it can.

yea, no thanks - “the grind” mindset is just capitalism worming itself into your brain

where Linux?

Lol, you’ve been misinformed by propaganda - (we all are true) it’s a genocide. the goal of the IDF is to kill palestinians.

if this were not true then they would actually have been finding hostages and releasing them, instead of (checks notes) killing 3 hostages by “mistake” and releasing 3 hostages - a little more than a hundred have been released by negotiations…

piracy is a service problem~

also of note, they never account for the fact that piracy increases sales in some aspects, without piracy - anime = small. buying physical books when they come on sale for a series you read online? yes, I have a nice collection. Merch, and so forth.

Are they going to stop printing it too? Scanlations is still a thing 😅

Piracy isn’t just internet sites that you stream shit on. Piracy is DVDs you bought or copied from a friend.

your premise bases itself on a very small timeframe.

(I also have no clue about software piracy getting harder - videogames you mean?)
