Crazy, how in the heck did he spin that to make himself look good?

Obligatory:
True. Was playing Arkham Knight the other day and thought this nine year old game looked better than at least half of current gen games.
I have a vague recollection about the Nesticle drama, but also don't recall the details.
I know the emulator scene precedes UltraHLE by at least several years. Publicity around UltraHLE just made it somewhat mainstream, and Nintendo learned first-hand about the Streisand effect, lol!
I used all of those. Nesticle had that bloody hand as a cursor. Also, Genecyst for Sega Genesis/Master System emulation.
Remember when emulation really blew up after UltraHLE successfully ran Ocarina of Time? That was when I first became aware of emulators (IIRC, it was front page news on IGN). Nintendo filed a lawsuit and took UltraHLE down, but we all know how that turned out (at this point, I believe I've lost count of how many N64 emulators were developed in the ensuing years). This recent Yuzu/Ryujinx drama is just history repeating itself. Emulation will never die.
There’s just absolutely no way that the money free world they describe is good for everyone.
Can you elaborate, please? In a hypothetical future where money doesn't exist and technology has granted everyone the means and freedom to pursue their own interests (as long as those interests aren't harmful to others, of course), I'm having difficulty understanding why that wouldn't be amazing. Maybe not perfect, but vastly improved over what we're stuck with now.
Don't they all essentially require internet access to be 'smart'? I have a LGTV (with WebOS, an app store, etc.) that I basically treat as 'dumb' by leaving it disconnected from our network.
The Mist is also where I first saw him, he did an excellent job in that role.
Also, the native 'princess' thing is an extremely tired stereotype.
