CliffHey, <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Meta</a>. Thanks for promoting the book <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/CarelessPeople" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CarelessPeople</a>. I never would have known it existed, was about you, or the overall plot of it without you <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/StreissandEffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreissandEffect</a> -ing it!

Gavin Lux EnjoyerI had completely forgotten what a piece of shit Brett Farve was until he tried to get this lawsuit restarted. <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/StreissandEffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreissandEffect</a> <a href="https://mastodon.xyz/tags/nfl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nfl</a> <a href="https://apnews.com/article/favre-sharpe-welfare-defamation-mississippi-nfl-7f846bde422da76c2a34ccbd5d90c417" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://apnews.com/article/favre-sharpe-welfare-defamation-mississippi-nfl-7f846bde422da76c2a34ccbd5d90c417</a>

bedastSo...the <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/Yuzu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Yuzu</a> situation…Yeah, they shut down. But being an open source project, it'll get forked. <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/StreissandEffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreissandEffect</a> and all that.But there's something we need to be honest about. People using game system <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/emulators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#emulators</a> for legitimate purposes are more likely to be in the minority. Many will commit "ethical piracy" for things no longer available for sale (ie: older systems). But <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/piracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#piracy</a> is a massive part of this community, whether it's openly discussed or not."But _I_ don't pirate! _I_ only emulate games I own!” you proclaim. Okay, cool. You're in the minority. Seriously.Emulators are, in and of themselves, legal. That's established via precedence. <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/Nintendo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nintendo</a> isn't arguing that Yuzu is using proprietary information, code, etc, so much, but rather argues that it's a piracy platform. Their evidence revolves almost entirely around this premise.Could Yuzu win the <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/legal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#legal</a> case against Nintendo? Probably. But even if they won the legal battle, the Yuzu maintainers would, ultimately, lose, and that is, ultimately, Nintendo's goal. Even if Yuzu wins the case, put them in financial ruin over it."But people could contribute to their legal battle and help them stay afloat!" you say. Yeah, it's an option. But when you look at a community that is filled to the brim with people who just want free <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#games</a>, do you really think that community will contribute enough financial help to fight Nintendo?Yuzu was in a no-win situation. The legal precedence still stands, Nintendo didn't win a legal fight over this. But they got their wish.Yuzu had to shut down to protect themselves. (correction in below edit)And Nintendo will use this to bully other projects.Edit to add: Yuzu shut down as part of a <a href="https://squirrelmob.com/tags/settlement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#settlement</a> posted yesterday, that also includes a $2.4m payment to Nintendo. This does not change the legal precedence, but as I noted, Nintendo will use this to bully other projects.

Pavel MoravecMiluji <a href="https://mastodonczech.cz/tags/StreissandEffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreissandEffect</a>. Bez něj bych třeba nevěděl, že je legální označovat @Aliprorodinu za Putinův hlas v Evropě.. 🙃<a href="https://denikn.cz/minuta/1331035/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://denikn.cz/minuta/1331035/</a>

DuncanMSussexPolThis account currently is more talking about tech than actual politics (enjoying <a href="https://toot.community/tags/BoJo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BoJo</a> falling down in flames btw, glad to see the inevitable finally happening) but the whole <a href="https://toot.community/tags/reddit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#reddit</a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/RedditBlackout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RedditBlackout</a> situation is remarkable.Like, <a href="https://toot.community/tags/lemmy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#lemmy</a> and <a href="https://toot.community/tags/kbin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#kbin</a> were clearly not ready for a migration, far less populated than Masto was, but here we are.Given <a href="https://toot.community/tags/spez" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#spez</a> seems to have a remarkable knack for making everything worse for himself every time he speaks is it time to rename the <a href="https://toot.community/tags/StreissandEffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreissandEffect</a> after him?

Taking actions or saying things that clumsily try to stop some backlash, making the backlash all the fiercer and more interesting for people to discuss. I agree that people who have had something about their success go to their heads fail to see how they’re making it so much worse. And ffs its RPI here not Apple, they are not some titan that makes a Giffen Good. <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/raspberrypi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#raspberrypi</a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/rpi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#rpi</a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/StreissandEffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StreissandEffect</a> <a href="https://ioc.exchange/tags/shootingselfinfoot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#shootingselfinfoot</a>
