I have one too but it has an emergency physical "master key". Also there's a port to provide power to it through a battery bank, in case you really run out of juice though it's potentially another point of failure. No internet connection

I'm working on a gameboy emulator and the amount of edge cases you have to consider feels just like this lol.

I also thought the same but Reddit dropped a whopping 50% from Feb. That is abnormal compared the the decline in other stocks. But as for the reason it could be anything really, if you could know for sure you can make a lot of money.

Your vote only matters in swing states. The whole electoral college thing is fucked.

Phones are powerful enough to emulate those devices via software

Looks like Luigi got another flag to reach

The theory is that on-prem includes a lot of ancillary costs like a team of staff for maintenance (or cost for outsourcing it), hardware maintenance/upgrades, cybersecurity, dealing with failures, backup, load balancing, multi-region/multizone etc.

I don't think cloud solves all these issues necessarily and I am convinced if you do the calculations cloud ends up being more expensive depending on the scale. I think you really pay the premium for convenience, speed (of getting things going) and user experience (the software)

What gives them the right to take down emulators? It's just code someone wrote that happens to be able to interpret bytes from a switch cartridge?

Why wouldn't they take down a company like analogue for example for making a hardware level gameboy emulator?

I don't mind the graphics that much, what really pisses me off is the lack of optimization and heavy reliance on frame gen.

Software which displays pixels and outputs sound when given data from a game cart, coincidentally.

Teams is terrible, but it feels like there's no good alternative. I liked Slack but its expensive. It also blows my mind that there's no markdown syntax highlighting for code in both, such a basic feature even discord has.
