There are couple of self-reflecting posts they made in this time talking about their change in perspective and trying to be more of a team player. Collaboration with others became common, and they were now open to the suggestions from the community. In the last few years, they opened up and become a much more pleasant person. A classic case of the grumpy rock-star programmer that people tolerate because they're good at what they do.Īll this being said, this was the "old" Byuu/Near. Instead he offered file hashes that others could compare to. One last side incident was that he ran a project to dump properly formatted ROM's, but didn't release copies of them to the emulation community. Of course, another hardware hacker was able to solve this "impossible" problem. They went on a rant how a certain chip would never be successfully emulated, because if they couldn't do it, no one could. Byuu/Near was very hostile towards people who requested that his emulators be updated to be more user friendly. NOTE: What is written below is not criticism of Byuu/Near, but trying to explain the source of vitriol against them.Ī little context that is being glossed over is that Byuu/Near in years past was viewed as a bit of an elitist / asshole. The same Star Wars whose villains were literally named after nazi troops, that was literally about a rebellion overthrowing an empire, that literally featured an allegory to the vietnam war, that literally named its character "Lott Dod" after a pundit and a politician, that literally paraphrased george bush, somehow it suddenly became political when a black guy got a starring role. The same comic books that had Superman infiltrating the Klan, Captain America punching Hitler, the X-Men representing any oppressed people suddenly became political recently. It really sucks that someone was affected by them so much (if the comments here are true).īut what I found hilarious was a thread titled "what stories did you enjoy before politics were introduced" where the OP claims comic books were cool before politics came around, and an early commenter said Star Wars was cool before politics were introduced. It's nothing more than a bored edgelord circlejerk. At first I was horrified that it existed, but then I saw they only have like 7,000 members and breathed a sigh of relief.
