someone asked me whether they could contribute code to touchHLE that’s written using ChatGPT

well, the copyright issue means that’s a hard no.

but if it weren’t for that: I mean, if you can stand behind every line of code as if you’d written it yourself, I don’t really care if you, your headmate, your cat, or the gods themselves through divine revelation wrote your code.

…but I doubt that you really can stand behind the code like that if you didn’t write it yourself. at least not without expending nearly as much effort as it would have taken to write it.

I wondered if I was missing something as to why so few early iOS games (circa 2008/2009/2010) were ported to Android, bearing in mind that Android hadn’t won yet

well

turns out there was no native code SDK for Android that supported OpenGL ES until September 2009 lmao

When I need to find a minimum time, minimum screen co-ordinate, etc, I often find myself writing Rust code like this:

if let Some(new) = new {
    current = Some(current.map(|i| i.min(new)).unwrap_or(new));
}

Is there a better way to do this? Even if it just covers the inner part (the case where new.is_some()), I’d love to know.

…Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D, for the iPhone/iPod touch, has an app bundle named… iFuse‌.app? what? the executable is named iFuse too. no, this isn’t some illegitimate executable from a questionable source, it’s the real deal, downloaded from iTunes…

this is just like when I found out that the core class in Super Monkey Ball is called “testAppDelegate” lolol

okay so I’ve been using an Xbox One controller all this time and I just tried to use the virtual cursor in touchHLE with Switch Joy-Cons and h-hahahaha oh dear goodness the joystick drift is incredibly bad and these are so imprecise, I feel sorry for Switch users
