Then, David walks us through his experimentation with the many software and hardware solutions for “AI voice notes.”
Later, we answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline about the Rabbit R1.

So the Vergecast is actually a reportage of David taking a journey towards adulthood

I’m 24, almost 25, and I no idea what I’m doing with my life. These little segments by David are very helpful in trying to do what I need to do. I particularly liked a few weeks ago when he said that instead of buying new gadgets just to buy new gadgets, just change up what you can with the ones you already have. Such a good piece of advice.

I remember getting GBA4iOS on my phone when I was in middle school and it was game changing. Riley is a pioneer

It’s amazing to be actually playing Gameboy and Ds games on my iPhone.

High school for me. I think it was around the same time as Flappy Bird?

Jesus christ, Verge. Why are you so obsessed with emulators recently? 4-5 articles a week. And none of them mention even in passing that emulators are very closely tied to piracy. That's their main use case in the real world. Stop cheerleading piracy. Or at least acknowledge it.

Womp womp, if Nintendo isn’t going to give me a legal way to reasonably acquire their games then I simply see no other option

it’s big news! apple capitulating, yuzu going away… there’s a lot going on! also, emulation isn’t necessarily used to play pirated games, just like consoles aren’t necessarily used to play legitimate games. for example, i’ve been using delta to play my childhood copy of pokémon ruby that i ripped myself, no piracy involved!

@WhateverWhenever888 24 күн бұрын

No one cares mate, emulators aren’t piracy. Also I’m personally LOVING all the content around delta and emulators lately on the verge and I’m guessing others are loving it too, that’s why they keep making videos about it.
