I prefer "brochacho".

Microsoft already removed all support for 16 bit apps on all 64 bit versions of their OSs. You can replace the missing NTVDM with WineVDM, which is essentially just WINE for 16 bit apps, and likely has higher compatibility than NTVDM anyway.

That doesn't help with the incompatibilities of some Win9x and XP era apps, though.

I don't think SC-Controller is making direct kernel syscalls or anything like that. It's probably just something as simple as the dev doesn't use Windows and doesn't feel like supporting it, which I can understand.

Also the reason I even mentioned Mesa is because there is a working Mesa port to Windows already that does software rendering and an experimental RADV port.

I get what you mean, but also the No True Scotsman fallacy.

If only

SC Controller (the modernized fork) doesn't support anything other than Linux. On Windows, I have to run a super outdated version from 2020 that is missing support for newer controllers such as the DualSense.

AMDGPU Mesa drivers are just better than the proprietary AMD drivers. There is experimental support for RADV in Windows, but nothing like the support that is on Linux.

This is going to sound weird, but WINE sometimes has better support for legacy games/software than modern Windows does, and WINE is not available on Windows outside of something like WSL.

I would also say KDE apps like Dolphin, Konsole, and Kate, but those have Windows builds.

I doubt ICE would care if you showed them a US passport, let alone an ID

We can only hope that the Big Macs and lack of exercise kill him quickly.

We need the corporate death penalty.

Or at least take 100% of their revenue (not profit) until they comply.

Gotta love FPTP voting

Fascism

The law only matters if it's enforced.

Protests mean nothing if nobody sees it.

Additional ice cream if you reaffirm the oath you took to protect the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.

If it walks like a Nazi and talks like a Nazi, it's probably a Nazi.

Recognizing what people feel and feeling what other people feel are two vastly different things.

I like to point to this video, as it made me understand the psychology of sociopaths: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTWNnmymMc4

That was on purpose. Most revolutions (including the American revolution) have been coopted by elites who desire to have control over people.

"Don't make us be good. Fall in line, or else it gets the hose fascism again."

How do we know they aren't vampires? They cover their faces when inside and protect themselves from sunlight by wearing full military gear outside.

Yeah, but then they would be disobeying orders.
