Yes my bad, misunderstood this as “I don’t know what firmware is”

Oh the name, completely misunderstood this as “I don’t know what firmware is”.

How can you be 30 years in the industry and not know what firmware is?

And people care about that? That’s the weirdest elitism I’ve ever heard

tobier , to retrogaming in [HN] Study: 87% of classic video games are not legally available

If you bundle cryptographic keys, bios or other copyrighted content then yes obviously it’s illegal.

It’s not illegal to implement an emulator.

It’s required because a lot of the functionality of the PS2 is in the embedded software, the BIOS.

The problem is not the emulator itself, it’s the BIOS which is copyrighted. The emulator is not illegal, but bundling the BIOS with it would be.

Emulators are not illegal, where did you get that from?

tobier , to fediverse in Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?

I’ve lost all hope for young people when most of the “proposed” content on Facebook or similar are either: young people making softcore porn videos, or young people miming to songs.

tobier , to fediverse in why can't we have federated identity ?

The whole point is to be decentralized. You can still interact with communities on other instances, so what’s the point?

tobier , to fediverse in Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?

Well it would be nice to have a corner of the Internet that isn’t invaded by teenage desperately attention seeking social media drones.

Honestly wouldn’t mind Lemmy being a 30+ monoculture. Let the kids stay on their TikBooks and SnapFaces where they make porn or whatever else kids do these days.

tobier , to android in Opinion - What are your thoughts on password managers? Do you use one? Would you recommend it to others?

Bitwarden. Integrates extremely well on Android and on my PC in Firefox.
