I would like legends, but not in what was offered which were white legends on white keys. I can't recall the last time I Had to look at my keyboard to type anything, so going to no legends and a complete set of it for 60 bucks was a no brainer compared to the 120 or whatever they were asking for the double shot PBT ones with legends. I would have purchased the doubleshot ones if they came with dark gray stealth legends however.

>>107648836
I invented many things. Unfortunately for me I invented things to help people and bypass the status quo. Turns out you can't raise capital from people who want to control everything and reject funding something that would help humanity over themselves. The kicker is the masses don't give a shit either, they're oblivious, so crowdfunding is fucked. I even came up with a solution to crowdfunding for capital to work with the masses and their stupidity, but the cost of the legal side would be astronomical and the government would step in to destroy it.

So the conclusion I've reached is that you can't actually solve any problems that matter. Only remaining option is to sit back and watch the shit show unfold while insulating yourself as much as possible. It's like watching rekt videos, eventually you appreciate the art of stupidity.

Emulating CPU bugs isn't the difficult part, they're well documented, it's more so making sure things are accurate to the physical components of the console. Software is deterministic and predictable but real life hardware can be more unstable.
As an interesting example, Super Bonk on the SNES has a gameplay demo where there's a chance that the inputs of the demo will become desynced and that it'll mess up because of variance in the clock speed of the graphics chip and the CPU. However it never happens on emulator, because emulators don't bother to emulate the physical clock component. Therefore, a more stable result is less accurate than actual hardware... now you see, true accuracy is hard to achieve. Of course, you could argue that the more stable result is preferable to the behavior of the actual hardware, but then you have other games like the SNES Speedy Gonzalez game where a level cannot be cleared *unless* a specific hardware edge case is emulated.

Another emulator development tidbit that may interest you are illegal opcodes. This is mostly a 6502 specific thing AFAIK, but I think the 8086 may have some as well. You might know about their existence, but why they work is pretty interesting too. The 6502 (The CPU used in the NES) had a flawed instruction decoder. Instructions were decoded by looking up entries in a table of microcode depending on which bits of the opcode are on and off. Nothing wrong with that, but there's also nothing stopping you from using opcodes that mix properties of completely unrelated instructions. Some can be useful but most just jam the CPU. Even some official NES games used unofficial opcodes, for instance, Aladdin uses a SLO instruction which shifts the contents of a byte of memory left and then compares it against the accumulator register. Anyways, apparently some of these instructions are unstable and don't work the same way all of the time due to analog variance. A truly accurate NES emulator would have to emulate all the undocumented opcodes and then account for the hardware being used. Accuracy is a total nightmare.
>>
>>107646927
Also using these isn't generally reccomended since newer 6502 revisions used those slots for new, incompatible instructions

Stuff gets deleted all the time, and you can't predict what. I don't download indiscriminately, but after several times getting burned, I figured I might as well just save anything I think I'll want to revisit at some point.
Storage is cheap, and I have a lot of unused space. Might as well put it to use just in case, if I really need the space back for some reason I can always prune it.
