Nice work! I tried this out a few months ago (maybe longer?) and it was still a bit too rough around the edges but I liked the concept. I’ll download it again today and give the new update a spin!

Mostly just seems genuinely positive haha

And don’t forget the 20oz bottles too!

Hold on, that’s not fair, we also use it to measure how much Coca Cola is in the bottle…hmm never mind that’s not helping… let me start over…we also use it for drugs! Wait, shit…

Funny thing is most of them are good reviews not bad lol

It’s funny reading these mundane “the service was great, good steak” kind of review and knowing it’s written by a billionaire drug kingpin 😂

Makes sense considering that statistically 50% of people are of below average intelligence…

“Assistant VP” or “Assistant to the VP”? lol

This is a person that appears to actually think XML is great, so I wouldn’t expect them to have valid opinions on anything really lol

Sounds about right for an academic computer scientist, they are usually terrible software engineers.

At least that’s what I saw from the terrible coding practices my brother learned during his CS degree (and what I’ve seen from basically every other recent CS grad entering the workforce that didn’t do extensive side projects and self teaching) that I had to spend years unlearning him afterwards when we worked together on a startup idea writing lots of code.

That is…unfortunate.

I’ve been thinking about learning Rust after hearing about it’s benefits, but was put off by its ugly type syntax that I hate from C++ and the whole “fighting with the borrow checker to do simple stuff” thing. But now it seems it also has the terrible bloated dependency culture I hate from JavaScript too!

IMO any security benefits from the increased memory safety are immediately nullified by the security nightmare that is hundreds of statically compiled dependencies…

I guess I’ll keep waiting on the sidelines and see how the standard lib and dependency culture evolves.

Wow I when you said 268 dependencies I figured JavaScript was involved…

Is the culture of Rust/Cargo getting as bad as JS/NPM these days or is this developer just using an insane amount of dependencies? I don’t have any experience working with Rust so I’m genuinely curious. I stay away from JS in part due to the insane amount of dependencies every non-trivial project has.

I’ve built projects in many languages and other than a few JS/React/ReactNative projects which seem to have unavoidably massive node_modules folders, I’ve never had more than maybe 10 dependencies in a project ever…

Thanks I’ll back these up as well!

All Citra repos including dependencies archived here: https://archive.org/download/citra-emu_GitHub_03-04-2024

Also latest Citra binaries for all platforms here: https://archive.org/download/citra-latest-builds-4th-march-2024

Breakpad (and all other dependencies–well anything hosted by Yuzu team on Github anyway) are included in this archive: https://archive.org/download/yuzu-emu_GitHub_03-04-2024

Even better, there’s full archives of all yuzu and citra GitHub repos on archive.org. Yuzu depends on a bunch of other repos they had hosted on their GitHub to build. Same with Citra. All of that is included, plus full git history, in the archive.org 7z files. The torrents are actually really fast right now as there are a lot of seeders. Highly recommend downloading while you can in case Nintendo files a DMCA.

Also Yuzu Wiki with full git history (for some reason missing from the archive.org backup)

Is there any way to download the whole git repo with history from that archive? Their FAQ seems to indicate there’s a way:

If absolutely needed, you can use the more expensive “revision” option of the Download button, that will prepare for you the equivalent of a git bare clone , which you will be able to use offline. This may require quite some time (hours, or even days for huge repositories).

But when I got to a repo I don’t see a “revision” option when I click the download button…

Yep and it seems to line up with the rise of the Steam Deck and all the discussion around how viable gaming on Linux is these days. I think there were/are a LOT of people that only stick with Windows due to gaming. Hopefully as gaming support continues to improve on Linux more of those people will make the switch.

Now I’m curious, what was the first worst job you ever had?

That kind of makes sense though. I figure they assume you’ll have one computer hooked up and then a bunch of consumer devices that all use HDMI. And if you need a second computer hooked up you can also use HDMI if needed. Probably makes the most sense to the most people as having more DP in place of HDMI would just mean the average user couldn’t hook up as many devices since (almost?) no consumer devices use DP unfortunately.

That’s true but there are a bunch of CDNs you can choose from and you can switch from one to another fairly easily. Cloudflare just happens to be the most popular at the moment but they’re not the only big player, not to mention smaller players.

FWIW I totally agree with the sentiment that Cloudflare (and AWS for that matter) is creating a too-centralized web. I just don’t see an issue with using CDNs for fediverse servers in general.
