DacoTaco@lemmy.worldto Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•Electric Cars Are More Reliable Than Gas Cars — New Study5·8 days agoThis is true, because the compression limit and timings of ignition isnt as important with diesel.
That said, less complexity is better, so even diesel is out of the race :p
(And yes, ev’s have a lot of complexity too. Not gonna deny it. Shits complex to keep stable m’key )
DacoTaco@lemmy.worldto Legal News@lemmy.zip•Nintendo is suing the accessory manufacturer that showed off Switch 2 early10·9 days agoI was expecting this. The company was under an nda to make 3th party stuff of the switch 2. The switch 2 wasnt announced yet, the official name and design wasnt officially revealed yet and yet they showed it off at ces in januari.
Ye, thats a clear violation of the nda.
Aaahhh, Ich hoffe es hat Ihnen gefallen!

DacoTaco@lemmy.worldto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Wii Homebrew Community "Built On Lies And Copyright Infringement"English23·14 days agoOk so, i might be late to all this as i was helping with the damage control. But let me get some facts straight out in the open. Yes this is part of the damage control im doing, but its to battle a lot of misinformation out there. So, lets get into it.
First things first, marcan is wrong. Libogc ( the library homebrew is built upon )'s threading is not rtems. As youll see later, it was inspired by it, but not even close as to a copy paste or plagiarised when it was first made. Shagkur (the one who made lwp) is known to have created some stuff by looking at other stuff and writing code from the ideas. This was asked to shagkur when we were first made aware of the allegations 2 years ago
Dkp didnt make this public as they did not feel like it was necessary.
Its only now that marcan made a fuss about it and it blew up that we have to battle this.There is also the fact that libogc is 23 fucking years old. It was made by shagkur in 2003, before git or svn existed and before forums and social media was a thing. So you shouldnt put it up to todays standards either. On top of it, that was made for gamecube, not wii. Marcan was part of the migration to wii so he was part of it too.
I also want to point out that he shouldnt be making a fuss as his mini code, a code base what their bootmii and installer is build upon, contains code that looks very similar to ios, the nintendo code running on the security processor.
Anyway, there is more. Yes people have found similarities, but thats because of how things work, not because of copy pasta. I would like to redirect your attention to this blogpost and investigation by mardy : https://mardy.it/blog/2025/04/no-libogc-did-not-steal-rtems-code.html
Inline edit about the blog: i want to point out the lwp code also evolved over time to fit newlib better and to integrate standard c/c++ code better. But lets keep going, shall we?
Im not going to deny that parts of libogc are semi decompilations of the then leaked gamecube sdk. devkitPro didnt know this untill years after it had integrated libogc into its systems. But by then it was wildly used so there was no going back. Rewriting it would also not have been feasible to do alone. Hence the state it is in now. But as far as the new lwp allegations, its all false.
Also, and this is my personal thing, hbc archiving their repo was a pure dick move. They didnt do anything with it anymore, they didnt merge or accept improvements nor did they want to release a new version that would have fixed some stuff for wiiu/vwii. Its was considered dead by the community ages ago…
DacoTaco@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do words like 'conmunity', 'family', 'team', 'clan', 'society' 'country' etc still mean anything anymore, or are we devolving into individualistic people looking out for no 1?10·15 days agoI dont agree here. Community has meant something and still does. Im in several communities and would do a lot for a lot of people in said communities.
Hell, if you start looking at asia communities tends to have even more meaning…
EDIT: derp, didnt see the n in there lawl

DacoTaco@lemmy.worldto FediLore + Fedidrama@lemmy.ca•feddit.uk has been defederated from lemmy.blahaj.zone10·17 days agoAs a .world user id be sad if it got defederated. I like my content to have all kind of point of views (if discussions are civil).
I have yet to see any large influx of transphobia comments, but will say i haven’t read much comments in general.I wonder if lemmy has a system to ban users from an instance without defederating? It should only be a last resort…
Dont overwork those under 30 to become tired at 30. Give everyone the same minimum work hours. Aka, 4/5 ( aka 24h work week )
DacoTaco@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•i thought it was a negotiation tactic1·22 days agoYes, but also no. Friend of mine works in the business of import and export declarations and he says there are forms and checkboxes that need to be ticked to not have this happen. Yes sales tax is not vat, but when declaration of import happens there are methods/procedures to have them be compatible
DacoTaco@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•i thought it was a negotiation tactic4·23 days agoPay sales tax on purchase and then again on import to border control because they believe vat wasnt paid yet because it wasnt declared right
DacoTaco@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•i thought it was a negotiation tactic6·23 days agoWhat vat? The vat the us somehow doesnt know how to apply or declare on international packages so i always ending up paying vat twice? Oh that vat.
Ye, let them.
