Artistic intent in translation
- @Grummz on anime and game translation:
Anime translation, as well as games, should reflect the original artistic intent as closely as possible.
This is what customers want.
Nobody ever asks for more memes to be inserted in anime.
- Counterpoint: Ghost Stories (except the style here is what we now know as "abridged" series)
Politicized/memed subs versus direct/purist subs
- @Grummz again:
If you are adding US culture and politics to your anime translation, you are a colonizer and are appropriating culture to twist ot to your own western values.
Stop profiting from hijacking anime for your personal messages.
Epic versus the app stores
Japanese media industry
Attack on libretro
- Someone routed through AWS to attack the libretro project on Saturday
- Build server was virtually wrecked, and multiple repos in their GitHub organization were reset
- Netplay, core installer, and update services are also down
- Hacker vandalised our buildbot and Github organization
- Apparently Github can't restore the sabotaged repositories? @libretro:
Github has told us that they are not able to restore our repositories - "I'm sorry to say that we aren't able to restore a branch or repository to its previous state on our end." So we will have to do it manually.
