sunaookami··on F-Zero X on Nintendo 3DS
Most people use an EmuMMC to avoid bans. I think the bigger issue is that most Switch consoles need a hardmod.
sunaookami··on Jailbreaking the Switch 2
[flagged]
sunaookami··on The Missed Opportunities of Sonic 06 (2025)
Sonic 06 can maybe be fixed at a technical level but not at gameplay level, yeah. Tortured myself by playing it through it twice and when you do know how to handle the game (don't do XY or the game freaks out, avoid jumping here, don't touch the analogue stick here...) a few Sonic parts can be quiet enjoyable but the rest of the game is such a shitshow. I even played ALL of the side quests for Sonic's part and it was one of the worst experiences I've ever had in a videogame. It's interesting to read about the development and people trying to "fix" it though.
sunaookami··on Today, we hacked what we'd set out to hack: the iPhone
Marketing by security researchers and companies has gotten unbearable. They only want their name out there and not actually make devices more secure.
sunaookami··on Jailbreaking the Switch 2
They can (and will) ban you from online services (the console, not the account). No, they won't brick your console remotely (blown out of proportion from a sentence in the EULA that's there since the Wii days and other vendors also have it)
sunaookami··on Jailbreaking the Switch 2
No because they don't use the eShop infrastructure.
sunaookami··on Quad9 to exit France
Depends on how old you are :D
sunaookami··on Quad9 to exit France
Lately? Did you forget the rootkit they installed on everyone of their customers PCs?
sunaookami··on There isn't an easy exploit for this PHP vulnerability
Is the calif website supposed to be a parody?
sunaookami··on No more icons in every menu by default
Slightly related but what really grinds my gears in modern UI design is: Monochrome icons where you don't know what it's doing. I'm feeling like an old man that doesn't know how to use a computer when I'm hovering over the icons to hope for a tooltip (that is often forgotten) that explains what it does and hope it's not a destructive one when clicking it. This somehow got worse over the years with every program inventing its own icons and meanings.
sunaookami··on PHP 8.2.35
This is not the same? Reply-all is mostly just "please unsubscribe" or "why did I get this email". Here people try to be funny and "be part of it".
sunaookami··on Way to Play Super Mario 64: On Apple Vision Pro
No first-party game is a Game Key Card and without them, the rest of them would just be digital without a store-release. No store has yet shut down, you can still download bought games from the Wii Shop from 20 years ago. And GKC aren't tied to the eShop infrastructure. Nintendo did the least damaging thing while still giving gamers the option.
sunaookami··on SlopCodeBench 10/2026 – Opus 5.5, Astra wins overall, xhigh considered harmful

sunaookami··on PHP2Shell: AI uncovers critical RCE in PHP
One billion devices run Java!
sunaookami··on PHP 8.2.35
Ugh these comments on GitHub. Don't people know when it's best to just post nothing? "516 hidden items"
sunaookami··on DeepInfer: High-performance inference framework for DeepSeek models
Anyone who compares DeepSeek to Claude can't be taken seriously. I'm rooting for open-source models of course but DeepSeek is so much worse than Claude, it's not comparable.
sunaookami··on Namecheap just seized and disabled all my domains
Just disable "Universal SSL". But yeah, it's unexpected.
sunaookami··on Verisign .com Domain Name Registry Consumer Class Action
.de costs me 1,14 € per year for comparison (using Netcup). Denic is also non-profit.
sunaookami··on Last rites for Gentoo's Chromium package
NTA but why so hostile? What do you even mean by "real work" and "real hardware"? And what has this to do with Linux compile times? Linux compiles way faster than Chromium in general.
sunaookami··on Show HN: I got tired of btop not seeing my Mac's chip, so I built siltop
This + when it constantly leaks prompts and implementation details. E.g.:

>No sudo, no telemetry, about 1.3% of one core.

You just know the prompt the author sent. And of course the absolute classic:

>No ps, no powermetrics, no scraping.

sunaookami··on DeepSeek-v4.1-Flash-1017
Huh, doesn't DeepSeek take the longest because it overthinks way too much? Haven't tested this release yet but was very disappointed with past ones because it takes an eternity to do anything because it constantly overthinks and questions itself way too much instead of just starting.
sunaookami··on Steam Client is now faster than Epic's new vibe coded launcher
Not only that, a lot of "gamers" refuse to play games that are not on Steam (not only talking about stuff like EGS-exclusives but games that have their own launcher or just EXE's).
sunaookami··on Gemini 4 Argon
Huh? The constant failures in the Gemini API and overnight changes are well documented, there was a time from January to roughly July (maybe it still persists) where the API constantly spew 503 errors. This was so bad that I switched to OpenAI API instead. See e.g. https://discuss.ai.google.dev/t/frequent-503-errors-service-...
sunaookami··on Hackers activate automatic defrosting in supermarket fridges across Europe
DMCA is one of the worst laws in existence.
sunaookami··on New Apple TV 4K
I paid 179 € in December 2023.
sunaookami··on Mozilla Introduces Firefox Enterprise
You need to work on your reading comprehension.
sunaookami··on Firefox Enterprise
The answer is not yes, why are you spreading bs? It's just an extra feature item on the list, there is nothing that gets removed in the "normal" Firefox.
sunaookami··on Firefox Enterprise
No, why would you think that?
sunaookami··on Making big downloads resumable in Firefox
Vodafone has also stopped public peering last year sadly. Especially noticeable with GitHub: https://www.heise.de/en/news/Vodafone-leaves-public-internet...
sunaookami··on Making big downloads resumable in Firefox
How do you handle files that are only downloadable after going through wait times, login wall, etc.? I used cliget for Firefox back in the good old XUL days that integrated itself into the download dialogue and which constructed a nice copy-pastable string for wget/curl but since the removal of XUL the new version is kinda useless.
