@coolboymew According to TCRF, it is, which makes sense because I highly doubt that a scrapped level in the final ROM would be hidden for that long.

@coolboymew At first, I thought this was an unused level that was in the final ROM, but was left undiscovered for over 25 years, but it turns out that this was in the gigaleak, which he didn't mention.

It's only playable now thanks to the decomp.

@PurpCat @eric @i @sally @sun @toiletpaper I have an old book somewhere from Oracle wherein the first chapter of the book is about the theory of computing, where a program is fundamentally a math function that solves a problem by taking an input and calculating a result. The second chapter was dedicated to understanding your input dataset and how to arrange it in a form that would be best suited to find desired solutions from the dataset.

It would be really cool if we could get back to that, instead of being concerned with shit that doesn't matter like if someone voted for ronald regan, or thinks sex parties are pretty foul.

Even Lunduke is covering the Stallman hit piece:

https://youtu.be/9jkxnM0gJdo

@drewdevault is such a pussy he didn't even put his name on his hit piece. His credibility in all tech communities is so low it's gotta be approaching absolute zero by now.

How the fuck is this bastard still allowed on Hackernews and I'm banned?!

@PurpCat @eemmaa I really hope this marks the end of him having so much influence in the FOSS community.

@mischievoustomato @PurpCat I can't believe that he is too stupid to not know about the meta no-archive tag.

Now that we know -- with a high level of certainty -- that Drew DeVault is (at least one of) the author(s) of the "Stallman Report"... this comment from DeVault, yesterday, is particularly amusing:

"I've read most of the report" ... "the depth of this report is astonishing". 🤣

I've been working on a website for my game studio. The layout was created via ChatGPT (it's really great at generating HTML5 templates without the modern web bloat).

It was hard to write the about page because I didn't want to be unprofessional and bash other studios, but I wanted to make my point across that we will NEVER include any DRM, telemetry, or live service crap in our games.

Here is a brilliant idea: a website with an interactive map that shows businesses that are known to use facial recognition. As a bonus, have another interactive map that shows businesses that have gone cashless.

There are sites like this already, but they only list big-chains. It would be nice to know about small businesses as well.

>But how do we know if they are using it?

Employees can anonymously report it. If they see CCTV footage in their store's office and there are white squares over peoples heads, then they can report it anonymously.

@arc Drew DeVault tried (and failed) to anonymously create a website full of alleged testimonies from people who have interacted with Stallman, but people realized the site was from Drew given the similar wording, the fact that it was using the same IP address as his personal website, and both sites were created using the Hugo framework.

Is there a poast user that isn't antisemitic?

@parker @crunklord420 Yeah, I always suspected that it was more than just Stallman views on consensual sex. Even before that was brought up, I remember there being a lot of controversy about the GNU project not adopting the Covenant CoC after Linux adopted it.
