    they are going after the developers that make it possible to play your emulated game....

    they aren't selling all their games, and never have. ever wanted to play earthbound? you can't legally...

    if you want to blame me for "rehashing arguments" then maybe look where you are first, and then read my comment. this isn't a place for respecting copyright, or corporations fighting against preservation.

    feel free to check out my other comment on this post. where I link to nintendo using pirated roms and selling it back to us.

    point is to stop giving the rich ass company any benefit of doubt.

    how did lemmy piracy suddenly turn to defending nintendo...

    nintendo pulls rom sites down, sure - it's their shit (https://www.pcworld.com/article/402404/nintendo-suit-rom-emulation-game-preservation.html)

    Nintendo is using roms from these sites to sell to consumers within their own "ecosystem" (https://www.eurogamer.net/did-nintendo-download-a-mario-rom-and-sell-it-back-to-us)

    Not even close to all of nintendos titles are avaliable on their online stores, and the mini-snes or whatever did not have even close to all their titles.

    point is. Nintendo is NOT preserving their own games. And they sue anyone doing anything like preserving it for the public.

    They've sued multiple times emulator developers, even when it's completely legal.

    (it is 100% legal to emulate, and make emulators.)

    Due to the fact that a court case is expensive AF, this usually just kills the emulator group.

    we're mad at nintendo precisely because they do not, themselves preserve games. While they try to sue emulation and game preservers, they also use their ROMs and emulations to sell games to the consumer.

    Tbh, I want my memes with sources. and this one is strange...

    https://civilizationchronicles.com/roman-engineering-and-mathematics/ claims that mathmatics were essensial to roman engineering.

    whereas this (only abstract avaliable...) https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-662-66494-0_25 claim that mathmatics were but an auxillary science? 🤔

    nontheless mathmatics seems to have been quite understood and used by the roman engineers building among other things, aqueducts

    That's amazing, thank you for trying to deal with the core issues!

    And yes, I totally agree that the core issues are more important, and the anti-homless stuff is just symptoms of underlying issues, like systemic hostility towards homeless f.ex

    And I did absolutely misread your comment, which I now realize with context

    what is a squatter?

    someone that lives in a unused house?

    the problem there is that a house stands unused, not the people needing a roof over their head.

    also, I am really confused do you think that I'm for these spikes and shit? this is clearly meant to ban the spikes and stuff used to further dehumanize homeless

    If you followed the mainstream news for the Iran/Israel escalation, then you might have been terrified about ww3, fearmongering is something they do well. I'm here to suggest a quite crazy channel for leftist to follow. military industrial economics, channel Perun. Not because MIC good, but because it's a channel that grants a very well versed way to understanding modern conflicts. No, it's not perfect, but it's way better than cnn or some shit edit!: it's also one of the reasons I'm less afraid of nuclear escalation in the world! also lol, link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC3ehuUksTyQ7bbjGntmx3Q

    I have a lot of facial hair; and I've been trying to properly combat it for a long time now. I first got a safety razor, for a close shave - but the dark hairs were very visible and grew out a couple of millimeters by the end of the day. I tried laser, but apparently my facial hairs are both light and dark, not to mention also having red pigments - so there weren't much results. Then i tried pulling hairs out, one by one - this has the actual results I want, but I have to spend so much time on it, and do it around 3 times a week to even keep it sort of under control. I have a epilating machine (pulling hairs out), that work wonders on my legs - but my facial skin hates it, and last time I ripped my upper lip pretty badly I'm hoping for permanent hair removal, but I have to wait for my doctor to hopefully send me to a place (electrolysis) Does anyone here have any experience with waxing the face or such? Should I give up and live with the dark shades of shaving?
