Not in so many words, but this is from their official website:

"While we recognize the passion that players have for classic games, supporting emulation also supports the illegal piracy of our products."

Fun fact: In Washington State, not only are you allowed to kill European starlings, people are ENCOURAGED to kill them and destroy nests.

Terribly invasive species.

I get strong "youth pastor" vibes from you.

You got any (peer-reviewed) sources for these claims?

I overheard this conversation between two truck owners the other day.

One literally said he bought it to commute and he doesn't care about the mpg, all in the same breath.

These people are actively stupid.

I'm a millennial and I still write notes with pen and paper simply because I can't be bothered to learn how to format in a notes app of any kind.

All of my notes are formatted in a bizarre way that makes sense to me. Applying that format in a digital space is always a giant headache.

I am switching to using Obsidian. Skipping the formatting all together and instead linking all my disjointed ideas to each other seems to be working pretty well.
