What are we, 2 months away from 'this hospital had a nuclear bomb in it!'?

Spoiler: The ~~call~~ mushroom cloud was coming from ~~inside~~ outside the ~~house~~ hospital 😱

What's next, schools? Oh, wait. Well, surely not public infraβ€”nevermind. At least kids are safe? No? All right then.

More or less, minus the CGI.

Unfortunately, rich assholes like Musk tend to be above the consequences of the law. Even if a grassroots movement gets far enough for him to be convicted of anything, he'll just get a slap on the wrist like every other billionaire douchebag.

That assembly is for a DOS application. It would be more verbose for a modern Linux or Win32 application and probably require a linker script.

But python turns that cute little line up top, into that mess at the bottom.

Technically, not quite. Python is interpreted, so it's more like "call the print function with this string parameter" gets fed into another program, which calls it's own functions to make it happen.

I'm probably completely insane and deranged, but I actually like assembly. With decent reverse engineering software like Ghidra, it's not terribly difficult to understand the intent and operation of isolated functions.

Mnemonics for the amd64 AVX extensions can go the fuck right off a bridge, though. VCVTTPS2UQQ might as well be my hands rolling across a keyboard, not a truncated conversation from packed single precision floats into packed unsigned quadword integers.

If you're lying to the consumer and not disclosing that it's a product concept, yes.

Elmo basically threatened to rape her... Shitbag.

I understand his experience is hard to match, we all have something in our lives we're that good at

At some point, that mix of experience and ego becomes a significant liability. He's directly hurting the adoption of Rust in the kernel, while the C code he's responsible for is full of problems that would have been impossible if written in safe Rust.

2024 is going to be the year of ~~the Linux Desktop~~ enshittification. When anything you love goes public, you won't be loving it for much longer.

You think that's bad? They have four of these "promo" dialogs to push users to the Reddit ~~spyware~~ app.

  1. Unreviewed community (the one you're seeing).
  2. NSFW content.
  3. Trending content (yes, you read that right).
  4. Special events (like r/place).

Fuck Spez.

I wish someone would try that pickup line on me. All I get is "are you an IPv4 address? You look like you've been shared around between a few hundred households" :(

This also includes ceasing development and destroying their copies of the code.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. In addition, the repo for the Citra 3DS emulator was also taken down.

As of at least 23:30 UTC, Yuzu's website and Citra's website have been replaced with a statement about their discontinuation.
