Your teammate has the right approach here. People will quickly learn to stop relying on the dev environment in production deployments when the environment becomes unreliable.

Wasn't this the same guy who said he was going to take a step back from politics to focus on running his businesses like he was supposed to?

If I were a company looking to optimize profit by pricing goods at whatever limit the targeted consumer demographic would be willing to pay for, I would use a VPN as a signal to raise the price.

It doesn't matter who that consumer is behind the VPN. The VPN itself is a monthly subscription, and that indicates he/she has at enough disposable income to afford non-essential services.

Those are the requirements for the upcoming Vulkan renderer update to the Java edition of Minecraft, which supposedly will feature a lot more complicated lighting and shaders.

The previous releases used old versions of OpenGL where a lot of time is spent waiting to synchronously dispatch commands to the hardware, and even then it didn't make very good use of the GPU hardware it has available. It still doesn't use LODs from what I heard, but to give them some credit, they did finally start to use VBOs about a decade in development.

Bloom is useful for tricking people into thinking an object is bright or light-emitting. The more bloom, the brighter an object appears to be.

Empty yllow, sure.

Cyan and magenta are just them getting greedy.

The logic is that there isn't any real logic to it.

Nobody would be stupid enough to actually do that but that doesn't matter. It makes you look "suspicious", and that's all the pretext that would be needed to detain, search, and harass you with enough plausible deniability to get away with it not being seen as abuse of power.

I hope this finds you well, NULL. John Lastname. If this email isn't the best way to contact you, maybe XXX-XXX-3681 is?

You do not know who I am, but I know all about you. You may have heard of Pegasus? If not, let me fill you in: I have access to your phone, PC, and every smart device in your house at 123 Fake Street. I have your Facebook, your LinkedIn, and even your phone contacts. While you thought you were alone, I saw every disgusting, illegal thing you were searching. I have recordings of you side by side with the interesting videos you were watching.

Don't get me wrong, John. I'm not a monster. I know what they will do to people like you in prison, and I'm willing to offer you a sliver of hope. Send me $2000 USD in bitcoin to { btcWallet %} within the next 48 hours and I will make sure nobody else finds out about your guilty little habit. If you cooperate, I will run my program that guarantees every last video of you is shredded. If you don't, well, let's just say that you won't ever get this opportunity again. You know what they say about things on the internet: once it's up, it's never coming down.

And John, don't think you can pretend this will go away. I embedded a tracker in this email. I know when you received it. I know when you opened it. Remember: 48 hours. What happens next is your choice alone.

The DOOM soundtrack would be more appropriate, but Disney music stops them from being able to monetize it.

 

Modlog, which includes a site ban—something only admins can do.

The community bans also include communities that aren't moderated by any instance admins, and some that are only moderated by a single person who likely isn't aware of actions taken under their community's name.

 

Once one company gets away with it, the rest follow.

 

The Citra website has been replaced with the same statement made on the Yuzu website, and the GitHub repository is now gone as well.


Other build dependency repos taken down with it:

This also includes ceasing development and destroying their copies of the code.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. The website is still up, though.

The GitHub repo page for Yuzu now returns a 404, as well. In addition, the repo for the Citra 3DS emulator was also taken down.

As of at least 23:30 UTC, Yuzu's website and Citra's website have been replaced with a statement about their discontinuation.

There is also an active Reddit thread about this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1b6gtb5/

 

An ad that showed up as I was browsing through the news. Bloody ridiculous...

 

You may know it as Space Melody by Luna Park or as ResuRection by ППК (English: PPK), but the original melody was composed by Eduard Artemyev for the 1979 Soviet film Siberiade. The original name of the song, as titled in the movie's soundtrack release, is la mort du héroes (the death of heroes, if my French is correct).

Here's a link to the original composition, if you're curious.
