yeah I thought playstation got discord integration ahead of xbox

I do wonder if they have tools like this ready to go and release them at a time where they want good PR, as a "Hey look at us" momen

No, they wanted palyers to make a PSN account for Discord, that's why it took so long

Unless there’s a path to do what is suggested without doing that, it’s probably against the rules to spell it out here. 🤐

Ryujinx and other switch emulators exist.

yuzu took the fall, but ryujinx was the reason why people were capable of playing it early.

Emulation is not illegal, but downloading and uploading ROMs is illegal

wild mountain
#

you can legally emulate and obtain roms for personal use assuming your using your games to dump the data. there's nothing illegal about emulation in and of itself. it's been a thing for 30 years.

grand falcon
wild mountain
#

you're legally allowed to dump games too. there was a court case that ruled in favour of it as if it wasnt set then you'd never be able to use any software on any device that uses ram. (storing any amount of data through ram is equal to making a copy)

Ok, but take that bob Ross example I gave

That person that taught Bob Ross

He had his own show, similar to how Bob Ross was doing his show, only difference was that, the guy didn't teach or walk through what or how he was doing it

And once Bob Ross started his own show, that other guy, lost A LOT of money, because no one watched his show anymore, and his techniques were no longer secret, Bob Ross exposed the secret, and explained it in ways, so anyone could learn it, and copy it

That's business, has nothing to do with stealing. the first to do it almost never receives the credit they deserve.

Also, AI art isn't as simple as people think it is

how is it stealing? you don't own the way you move your body or some television series. there's only so much you can do as far as painting live goes.

#

if someone randomly stumbled upon the same action, is it exclusively the first guys or just a happy accident?

#

i decide to type with a type writer. another person finds typewriter and begins typing on it. they're stealing because i used the medium first?

"Bill Alexander, a German painter, art instructor, and television host, is credited with pioneering the wet-on-wet oil painting technique. Also known as the Alexander Wet-on-Wet Technique, this method involves applying wet paint on top of wet paint or wet paper, allowing colors to blend and create soft edges. The technique can be used to create smooth gradients, soft backgrounds, and atmospheric effects. Alexander spent years developing the technique, which he perfected by inventing shortcuts to expedite the Old Master alla prima technique. He also developed a thick oil paint that worked well for his paintings and helped his students"

an inventor creates a new solution to an existing problem

a pioneer experiments with Uncharted territories.

as such, you can't really pioneer art, but you can invent a style

you might have heard about people doing things a certain way and that inspires you to do it

tranquil obsidian
#

yeah; i think the issue is that "pioneer" is the wrong word; it feels more like invent should have been used

#

but yeah, it's very semantical

grand falcon
#

this is the literal defintion of "pioneering" soemthing:

"being the first to do or use a particular new idea: pioneering research/work/study."

small berry
#

how can someone invent someone like a sauce for instance, when they're using ingredients people have been mixing for ages, did they invent it? pioneer it?

tranquil obsidian
#

i think the distinction is;
the first person to create sauce pioneered it; the first person to make ketchup invented it

"First person to commercially exploit the thing"

was he the first to make a ketchup? probably not

Garum is why the Romans are disgusting

Garum is a fermented fish sauce that was used as a condiment in the cuisines of Phoenicia, ancient Greece, Rome, Carthage and later Byzantium. Liquamen is a similar preparation, and at times they were synonymous. Although garum enjoyed its greatest popularity in the Western Mediterranean and the Roman world, it was earlier used by the Greeks.

Cube the ham, saute in pan,

add a little bbq sauce, seasonings, smidge of honey if it is salted ham. If you like sweet bbq, add a little brown sugar. If you want a kick be a little heavybon paprika and/or cayenne, and a black pepper.

Stir until coated, heat until carmilized.

Won't be the same as pulled pork, but might hit the craving.

I toss it in a pan with butter and seasonings. Add a little soy sauce. If I have it I'll put some sesame oil at the end.
Mix my egg and meat in, veggies if I want them.
If I do the bbq omurice, I put a very small amount of bbq sauce when I add the meat to disperse some of that flavor around, but not too much bc I still want to taste the fried rice taste.

If I were going to make a sushi pizza, I would:

  • put sushi rice on it, fold the sheet up slightly. This is my pizza crust/base.
  • if this sushi has avocado, I would lay that here as the sauce.
  • if there is no avocado, I would drizzle the sauces to be the sauce.
  • I would now layer the veggies and protein.
  • drizzle lightly with sauce if you used avocado earlier.
  • sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • cut into slices and eat.

# icy pecan In terms of what

The way an NFT is generated (or was generated, before they changed it a couple years ago due to complaints) is computers would race to be the first to solve a math problem
whichever computer got the answer first was essentially given the coin (to grossly oversimplify)
This means the best way to get more ETH for nfts is to run a crapton of highly advanced GPUs at maximum power

#

GPUs are not only very powerful processing units but they also use a LOT of electricity

small berry

And that's no longer the case, potentially

and running them constantly like that uses far far far more electricity than the average person will consume playing a video game
