Interesting. How’s water fox?

Is there any android port?

Makes sense. I guess it was a perfect storm back then that convinced me of something wrong. I used to watch WAN religiously and all the LMG channels, but with all these allegations it made sense to me to not give my viewership until everything is cleared, and it seems we are still far from it?

I noped out of LTT after the initial reporting. What happened about the allegations of harassment and particular allegations by a former woman employee?

It’s almost like scientists are on to something when they wait for double blind randomizied control trials results before declaring effectiveness of a medicine.

You’ve been virtue signalling all this while!?

Because quantum physics is hard

While it’s true that both python and js are interpreted languages, making them highly portable, JS at that time was a very lightweight language with a robust runtime offered by mozjs, that was built to be easy to embed into other systems, while python was designed for being the framework in which you build apps directly, hence requiring deeper dependencies.

From what I can gather

1. JS is system agnostic, doesn’t require compilation or multiple dependency binaries, as opposed to say Python.
2. JS is widely understood, could get more contributors.
3. JS is a good enough scripting language made with UI stuff in mind.

I also see people lamenting that lua wasn’t chosen, so there’s that.

And that’s a fact

Fun fact, roughly half of gnome-shell codebase is written in JavaScript.

I actually love getting On this day emails from OneDrive. It brings up old pics that I wouldn’t have cared to look at.

Maybe they fear switch 2 sales would plummet if emulation and PC handhelds stick around when they launch. I disagree coz the two attract different kinds of gamers, but they aren’t cool like that.

Nintendo declaring war of its own.

Hmm. Perhaps we’d come to a point where these facilities are on all continents to reduce ecological impact, but I guess Apple isn’t that green.

N00b question. Do these chips get transferred from USA to India/Vietnam for assembly and then back again to all over the world for shipping?
