Ryujinx emulator taken down after devs reach agreement with Nintendo

Ryujinx emulator taken down after devs reach agreement with Nintendo

In what could possibly be the worst way to start October for emulation enthusiasts, as of just a few minutes ago the Ryujinx repository appears to be down, with the usual "404" message being given when trying to enter any of their related GitHub...

#Qakbot - affiliated actors distribute #Ransom Knight malware despite #infrastructure #takedown

Notably, this activity appeared to begin before the #FBI seized Qakbot infrastructure in late August and has been ongoing since, indicating the law enforcement operation may not have impacted Qakbot operators’ spam delivery infrastructure but rather only their command and control (C2) servers.

Meanwhile in Muskville, and across the #GQP disgrace on display (nee House of Representatives)

News aggregated news highlight, across Twitter, Mastodon, and "Farce News" (with a cartoon)

From VOA national correspondent Steve Herman:

PERSPECTIVE ON THE "Big Vote" in the #GQP / House (now on to round 9, proving the idea of 'insanity' being repeated...)

Eighth round results of roll call vote for House speaker:

Jeffries (D) - 212
McCarthy (R) - 201
Donalds (R) - 17
Hern (R) - 2
Trump - 1
(One member voting present)

And from "Farce News" (just slightly different from the actual Farcical #disinformation of #GQP / #Fox & fiends...

Gaetz & McCarthy - dueling a-holes

MEANWHILE, in #Twitter / #Muskville sandbox land...

#Twitter may lose its #SafeHarbor protection because it's not responding to #takedown notices for repeat #copyright infringers.

Twitter Hit With $228.9m Copyright Infringement / Repeat Infringer Lawsuit

The article doesn't say so, but it seems that Twitter isn't responding to the takedown notices as US law requires ("expeditiously") because of the #Musk layoffs.
This is big. #SocialMedia platforms cannot operate in the US without a safe harbor from copyright lawsuits. It's as if Musk sawed off the wings of his plane to save weight.
