Oh it’s a term linked to that industry…
…It’s tangentially related to the porn industry, but primarily, it is also the actual medical terminology many are probably more familiar with, so still wouldn’t be a great idea even in that context. (You get a pass if English is not your first language, otherwise, it should be fairly common knowledge.)
True. Was playing Arkham Knight the other day and thought this nine year old game looked better than at least half of current gen games.
I have a vague recollection about the Nesticle drama, but also don’t recall the details.
I know the emulator scene precedes UltraHLE by at least several years. Publicity around UltraHLE just made it somewhat mainstream, and Nintendo learned first-hand about the Streisand effect, lol!
I used all of those. Nesticle had that bloody hand as a cursor. Also, Genecyst for Sega Genesis/Master System emulation.
Remember when emulation really blew up after UltraHLE successfully ran Ocarina of Time? That was when I first became aware of emulators (IIRC, it was front page news on IGN). Nintendo filed a lawsuit and took UltraHLE down, but we all know how that turned out (at this point, I believe I’ve lost count of how many N64 emulators were developed in the ensuing years). This recent Yuzu/Ryujinx drama is just history repeating itself. Emulation will never die.
I love trying to out-logic AI chat. I know it’s probably impossible, but still fun. Haven’t got it to do anything against its programming yet, but I can consistently get it to give me the “this chat is over” equivalent line after a handful of exchanges.
Don’t they all essentially require internet access to be ‘smart’? I have a LGTV (with WebOS, an app store, etc.) that I basically treat as ‘dumb’ by leaving it disconnected from our network.
Is there a term for humor that is ruined by terrible grammar and diction?
