There’s a Super Smash Bros Brawl fanfiction with over 4.1 million words. It used to hold some kind of unofficial record for the longest piece of english fiction, but I think there’s longer ones out there now.

Wow, you’re right. I can’t believe I forgot about that era, when you could expect to see John Bridgman providing insight in every thread under AMDGPU news.
Maybe my memory is just warped. How far back did you have to go?
The Phoronix comment section has always been kinda shit. Maybe one in every thousand posts will contain anything of value (in most cases a comment by a developer telling the peanut gallery why they’re wrong).
A threat actor with code execution on a Linux desktop immediately has access to the filesystem and can do whatever anyway, in practice
No.
TempleOS is a marvel in many ways, but it’s not particularly useful to any normal person. I wouldn’t even say that Terry Davis was an asshole, because it feels wrong to hold a paranoid schizophrenic responsible for his manic episodes.
I agree with your recommendation. As for free/freemium email providers, there’s Tuta for one. I’m hoping that there are others.
On the other hand, GMX (and web.de) is a notoriously bad influence on email communication and will randomly block mailservers if they feel like it while flooding all of their own users with spam. The world would be a better place without 1&1 / united internet.
There isn’t much overlap between the gaming community and the gaming journalist community.
And the ability to breathe.
At this point I can only reiterate that emulation and piracy are not the same thing. I really cannot bring myself to give a shit about the ethical concerns of TOTK, when the only way Nintendo (and you apparently) has of protecting their intellectual property is to vanish perfectly legal software, through the power of being a big financial threat. I’ve been using emulators to play games since the SNES and not once have I played a video game for which I don’t own a copy (mainly because I’ve been around long enough to own all of the necessary hardware and game copies). The idea that emulation should be illegal or locked behind an arbitrary definition of console age/inactivity is completely laughable and would open the door for harassment of various open source projects at Nintendo’s whims, they won’t just stop at the WiiU era because you think that’s appropriate. The actions of one emulators development team or community being particularly unethical or locking things behind a paywall or even supporting piracy in any form, even if they annoy me and the rest of the emulation community, should not affect the emulator itself or the legality of the code. I’m not going to blame them for making themselves an obvious target, just because people have a weird affection for one of the most litigious billion-dollar companies on the planet.
Why should that change the legality of the situation? Not to mention the Nintendo Switch is already quite old and emulator development (for the most part) hasn’t lagged much behind a consoles release. Getting paid for emulator development also isn’t illegal and I don’t see why it should be. You’re trying to conflate emulation and homebrew development with piracy which doesn’t seem fair (and doesn’t even require emulation, which you’ve illustrated with your Nintendo DS example).
This leads to the same kind of erosion of free and open source software as Google taking down projects like youtube-dl on GitHub. The emulator code contains nothing illegal, neither does the developer community, but that’s exactly what Nintendo is targeting, because it’s the most effective way to shut down any project. The way Nintendo handles these cases is the problem and they have never cared if something is actually completely legal if they want it gone enough, like modding, romhacking or uploading videos of gameplay. At this point they’ve burnt so much goodwill that I’m hoestly surprised there are still people left willing to insist that Nintendo only goes after actual piracy.
Neither are other methods of air conditioning/circulation.
Literally nothing happens.
Linux init conservatives: Alright that’s the final straw, systemd!
Brother gets recommended a lot by virtue of being the least shitty option in the hellish wasteland of consumer/office printers. They aren’t perfect, but Brother printers have been the only option in the entire office to reliably print from a Linux computer over the network. Honestly, any day I don’t have to interact with a printer is a good day.

W-wow anon you’re so cool!
None of them are right. Two thirds are looking in the wrong direction and the males facial expression is the exact opposite of the original photo.
