Arby's is nowhere near as bad as Taco Bell/McDonalds/Burger King/all that poo poo

plus between 2 and 5 every day you can get a chicken slider, a curly fry, and a milkshake for three American dollars

If you have a dairy queen, just go there. I found out that dairy queens more or less contain most, if not all, of orange julius' menu iirc

One day I'm gonna be brave and stupid enough to try the Arby's Meat Mountain.

KCB and I will get one and split it.

It will be awful, terrible, and we'll write out a will before hand.

It'll be gooooood.

The ad doesn't even mention having to get a slip of paper from the wall of games, then bring it to a counter that was usually adjacent to the storage area which sometimes had windows you could actually see into.

I don't know if they had that system in the 80's or if it was an early to late 90's thing only.

Depends on the store, I think. It was like that from the first time I got taken there and they didn't really get rid of it in our local store until like the 360 or PS3.

Worked pretty well for getting you to buy the cheap impulse clearance games because they'd leave those on the shelves. Also remember thinking I was a clever kid for going in there, taking the slip of a game I wanted but couldn't get, and taking it with me. "Surely nobody will be able to buy this copy while I have the slip of paper!"

Surely you can understand that, in a goon gaming community, if someone is a wizard named Lizard, that I might think someone might be trying to impersonate me.

Dude shouldn't have been so prideful:

"Nintendo hasn't contacted me," he reveals. "This whole 'DMCA meme' needs to stop. Even if they did, there are already thousands of alternate download links. Some people get irrationally mad at other people for sharing Nintendo fan games, because they think they're going to get DMCA'd due to the publicity. There's nothing that can stop this fan project now, though.”

But they sure can take down a Patreon though. I mean that was your other problem. Promoting your Patreon, getting dosh every month and giving out the actual rom of the game w/modifications.

In this case nah, it's different than say using the Doom engine to make a totally different game (which a lot of developers did back in the day), the romhack as presented has a whole lot of stuff hacked out of it but at its core it's still Mario 64 and he's uploading a copy of it that is already against the law just by existing- rom dumps and emulation in general are straight up not legal.

The only emulation that's pretty much legal to do is stuff like EPSXE/PCSX2 or Dolphin where you have to provide your own real console's real BIOS and use your real discs to play. Obviously nobody does that because it's way harder than "go to emuparadise and download mario bros for wii.rom.zip", but in theory that's a way to do emulation that can't have action taken against it.

CJacobs posted:

fun fact, the emulator itself technically is legal unless you're using illegally-obtained firmware (and game software ofc). like if you reverse-engineered an operating system that felt and worked almost exactly like mac os and could run mac-formatted executables--.app files or whatever the gently caress they're called--but had none of apple's proprietary code under the hood, technically, you're in the clear... uh, right?

even reverse engineering can be kind of a grey area cause rewriting from scratch code based on something you've disassembled can be considered a derived work, if you're doing that poo poo commercially the right way is to have a reverse engineering team detail the design of the thing to a separate implementation team so no one is mentally contaminated by the original code. that's why emulator and homebrew teams don't gently caress with leaked official SDKs and have occasionally had to rewrite stuff when it comes out that some contributor was doing things the wrong way
