I can't seem to find it, but I think it was James Gosling, where he was blocked from reviewing code at Google because he hadn't gone through the company's approval process. I hope this wasn't a myth I've been carrying on for this long.

Right, I did hear about that lawsuit way back when, I just didn't know of these types of consequences. Very appreciated, especially the sources.

Is this for hardware RAID controllers, or have you experience software RAID like LVM or ZFS exhibiting the same drop out behavior? I personally haven't but it be nice to look out for future drives.

Regex is Turing Complete after all.

Does Backblaze work for what you are doing? It been a bit since I've price compared them, but I think it was something around 5$ a month per TB?

Oh so its just referring to writing the mod's code in the same file the mod is declared in being bad form? That seems very reasonable; since the point of a module is code separation so it makes sense to always put it in its own file. Good, I'm already doing that at least!

I don't understand how to follow this bullet point that I was replying to.

do not use mod unless it’s test for the current module. No I don’t want to Star Wars scroll your 1000 line file. Split it.

I already know what mod does in a basic sense, I wanted to know what the commenter meant by this.

I don't know enough Rust to understand by what you mean by the last one. My understanding was that mod name was just declaring the module that this file depends on. Could you explain what I should do instead? Since your other statements I totally agree with, I should probably agree with the last one.

I've used 4k and 1440p monitors, and my TV is 4k as well. For desktop use, 4k isn't really a big difference because of the hardware needed to run it at a decent speed. However, once I got my hands on a 170hz 1440p monitor, I can't go back to anything less. It's extreme noticeable. The higher refresh rate, and the reasonable upgrade in pixel density makes text much clearer, especially in motion.

For content viewing though, 4k on a TV it depends on how much of your field of view is occupied by the TV. Most of time though, a high quality panel is worth much more than higher pixel density. There is a massive difference between a basic 4k big box store TV, and 4k LG oled. The color, even outside of HDR content is just so much better, and the true actual black color is fantastic. Resolution is nice, but honestly, oled color is so good.

Here's a link to an instance of radicle for Yuzu. It's a p2p git server implementation. I haven't looked too much into it yet, but the tech seems interesting.

If the price of labor was what determined the price, then why have prices gone up, when labor prices have not?

The paywall as far as I know isn't that much of problem. Cemu has/had a paywall for years. Several other, though less successful, emulators have had paywalled content/early access as well. The BLEEM emulator that was brought to court was a paid commercial product. So that currently is perfectly legal within the jurisdiction of those cases. Nintendo's case against Yuzu was about piracy/DRM circumvention. That wasn't brought to court, so we don't know the outcome however.
