If you're using a Pi I don't see why you'd want to avoid learning Linux. Setting up and connecting to SSH servers is an essential skill for anybody doing anything on Linux that isn't purely desktop use.

Lawsuit would not be wise. Nintendo is working outside of the law right now which is where they're weak. Suyu and the other forks just need to move their repo to a git hoster not based in the US so that they're not threatened by DMCA (which is a scare tactic anyways but github is going to comply with regardless). The suyu team is not breaking any laws nor have they gone against the terms of the lawsuit against yuzu.

Why not? More computationally intensive things are done to calculate lighting in a lot of modern games as I alluded to. Yes it would increase the load on your CPU but that's less of a problem nowadays with higher core counts and clock speeds and it's not like modern anticheats don't steal some CPU cycles already. I think you underestimate the power of modern computers. I'm not trying to be condescending here but it is worth remembering that gigahertz means BILLIONS of calculations per second.

We're only talking in theoreticals right now anyways, it is entirely possible that a game studio has tried this and it hasn't worked, I just don't put a lot of faith in modern game companies.

This line of reasoning doesn't make sense. Haters being worse to women than men specifically because of gender has nothing to do with what that person actually does.

I just accept that 70% of my comments are gonna say "edited" now.

1.2 billion people live in India. You're just wrong.

It doesn't take 20 minutes to solve a quadratic equation by hand unless you're doing it for the first time.

I don't care about getting people into things. That's a highly individualistic way to look at the problem. Car dependency is a societal problem, and marketing won't solve societal problems. There needs to be a fundamental change in the way we (specifically the government) view transportation as a whole. (And as an extension to that, there also needs to be a change in regulation to close that loophole for light trucks.)

What's important to me is getting lawmakers and those advocating to the lawmakers on board with funding public transit and making the streets safer for all people using them. Yes we need people on board too but really only enough to get these ideas in lawmakers heads as a major issue. A minority. The majority of people don't understand or care and that's fine, because their minds will start to change once they see it actually working. In the words of NJB, there are not that many car people, bike people, or train people. Most people just want to get to their destinations as quickly and efficiently as possible.

We don't live in a direct democracy. 51% don't have to explicitly agree to laws. The government passes laws that are bad for people and the majority disagree with all the time. Not saying the majority of people disagree, I honestly think they couldn't care less. I'm just saying we don't actually have to recruit hundreds of millions of people.

Unfortunately, a major part of this plan is going to have to restrict what oil companies are allowed to do and nowadays that's seemingly impossible. Only seemingly though. Nothing is truly set in stone.
