I’m planning on moving to the IoT edition of windows 10 when support ends. It’s supported till 2032. Hopefully by then the professional apps I need will be sorted out on Linux.

Oh, shut up LiniageOS will be stone dead any moment now.

We have the largest prison system in the world per capita four times over. You can thank senator Joe Biden for that. We’re already the United prison systems of America.

Wow, a broken clock that is still always right!

I’m surprised no one ever tried to compile all the hacks into a single open source plugin or emulator. There are only around 400 retail games for the N64 which seems pretty manageable to have some sort of game detection ruleset for various hacks.

It seems like in recent years N64 emulation is finally improving somewhat with lower level emulation like the parallel64 core in retroarch.

Long term decompilation is the better solution regardless but it’s going to take a good amount of time to decompile all the games of significance for the N64.

This is a good documentary on the “miniature garden” concept Mr. Miyamoto is referring to in the interview.

If you’re managing fleets of windows installs you should already be using some kind of autounattend.xml script for settings like Automated Winstall. More info in this video. You can also use older Windows 11 ISOs and update after setup if you’re uncomfortable with that.

Not defending the decision by Microsoft, just pointing out some workarounds that should continue to work.

Both the default network mounting options in Gnome and KDE won’t let applications access the network drive. You have to mount using SMB4k or cifutils if you want application access. I’ve not used MacOS in over a decade but that functionality works seamlessly in windows for SMB shares. It’s honestly a minor reason (among others) I went back to windows.

This is a pretty decent overview of the ideas in that book for anyone who is interested.

The US does in-fact have multiple third parties. Everyone who votes for them just gets yelled at for being Trump supporters.

The patch was only the files related to the patch not the entire game. It varied but often the developers required a cd key and the disk to be in your drive in order to play the game. Most often patches were just on the open web free to download. There were counter-examples to this but they were the exception rather than the norm.

They’re not comparable now. They are comparable for steam early on to PSN now. PlayStation may be planning to eventually launch a competitor to steam. You would then need a PSN account to download updates.

I’m not defending it I don’t want yet another launcher I have to have on my PC or another account I have to keep up with. I probably won’t buy this game unless it has a steep discount and there is a no PSN patch.

There were often patches for games that you could download from the developers website a the time. Yes, it is a bit more convenient to have a client that will automatically do that for you but it wasn’t necessary.

People hated steam at the time because it took like 80mb of ram when 256mb of total system ram was not uncommon.

It can, I couldn’t figure out how to generate the OTR files on Linux so I had to do that on windows first. (It may be possible in Wine, I just didn’t have that setup.) You also have to change some of the settings in the config json file.

        "AudioBackend": "sdl",
        "Backend": {
            "Id": 1,
            "Name": "OpenGL"

Then, add the executable to steam as a non-steam game.
