So I thought I'd try to design a DOS sound card (work in progress)

Long ago in the 90s, guy known as “Y0SHi/koitsu” reverse engineered the NES and SNES and created technical documents that paved the way for so many of the retro emulators we have today. If you could ask him anything, what would you ask? Asking for a friend. ;)

Me to Codex: You're still a computer aren't you? I still have to tell you everything, no matter how obvious it is, don't I?
Codex: Yes.

After finally watching #Transformers The Movie. I understand why kids were upset after seeing it. It's the freaking Red Wedding for 10 yr olds. After the first 30 minutes you didn't want to see your favorite character on screen for fear they would die next. Good lord.

@shoe0nhead Or maybe we should just play by their rules and re-define that phrase
To mean, say, "not wanting WW3"

@MakoFukasame Part of me is horrified by this but another part of me is all smug knowing that my job is safe
All this is doing is flooding the industry with wannabe developers that produce worthless slop

@yacineMTB If you take an infinite number of 3-sided dice, with the number -1, 0 and 1 on their faces, roll them all and add all the numbers, and repeat ∞ times, you get the normal distribution

@LarryBundyJr @RealBigBoyBarry Honestly I think that 99% of death threats and other antisocial stuff comes from the <15 year olds, mostly male

(But I'm not suggesting anything like what govts are trying to push of late)

They mostly work on wordpress sites
