Here is the entire response. As far as i understand it boils to “we got a lawyer now”

The rest of this link is just blabala this happend, nitendo said blababla

They could have literally summarized this within a single headline.

And for the record OP, so could have you.

Its pretty standard fare that if you post an article, you use its headline as the post headline

That’s the beauty of Lenny, we can change the “Standard Fare”. I would much rather a post title that completely conveys the idea at hand rather than the confusing/ flat out wrong/or clickbait titles we get from “news” sites. The only thing that should be mandatory is a link to the article where you found the information.

I agree, /r/news started that policy because users would sensationalize the articles further and they didn't have enough mods to monitor if every submission was being taken out of context.

Lemmy doesn't have the same growth incentives as reddit so hopefully we can make things better here.

Standard sure, but with headlines most often being clickbait do we really need to keep doing that?

I’ll argue one step further even. This one here could have been a simple post conveying all the information as one scrolls by. No article or click required.

Yes please! Fuck's sake, I hate naked links so much. If I just want to head articles I can do so without being on lemmy - I'm here to see at least a little gods-damned discussion, but people just post these naked links with no comment or anything to get a discussion rolling.

If you think a link is interesting enough to post, surely you can say something about it, damnit!

Damn 40 months for piracy. That's like 3½ years for hurting a company's feelings n shit.

Literally no one on Twitter understands how anything works. Everyone in the quote replies is posting gifs saying Yuzu is gonna dunk on Nintendo, they're gonna show Nintendo who's boss, they're gonna this, they're gonna that... and I'm fucking losing my mind.

Of course I want Yuzu to win. Of course Nintendo wants to ends emulation and that's bad. But come the fuck on. Be realistic. This is not Google vs. Epic or even David vs. Goliath. This is like... the asteroid vs the dinosaurs. The only hope for Yuzu (and emulation) is that this asteroid misses the Earth, i.e., over the next 60 days, Nintendo somehow reaches a deal with the company and this doesn't go to court.

Because if it does, then I will get no enjoyment from being the one telling the geniuses on Twitter, "I told you so."

This isn't Google vs. A mcdonalds employee either

They get 330k a year on patreon and hired a lawyer

Having infinite money only gets you so far in law

I'd give this more of a 50/50 chance than a 0

Here you go, man.

Yuzu agrees to pay $2.4 million. Furthermore, it is ordered to be shut down, and its employees are prohibited from working in a similar capacity for any other emulator, too.

Yeah I think it's sad but they just settled

I think they could've won

You hoped for this btw

This sucks
