The original Rosetta, which was emulating PPC on x86 is directly comparable to the situation of PS3-game-on-PS4 hardware. I was able to play Halo CE for Mac on x86 with Rosetta and it felt native.

The point is that this isn’t a limitation of technology, this was a decision on Sony’s part.

This method is literally killing the patient’s entire immune system by irradiation. They then replace it with a donor immune system that might in turn try to kill them.

This isn’t a good option for the vast majority of patients to wipe out a virus that can be well managed with drugs.

The reason that it was done here is that the treatment is intended to cure them of cancer, and as a side effect eliminates their HIV infection.

The brutal bone marrow transplant that can “cure” HIV is only an option for patients who also have leukaemia

So they wipe out all the patient’s bone marrow, let them simmer in a immuno-bubble-room for a bit, then give them a stemcell bone marrow transplant from someone whose bone marrow is hiv resistant and hope to high hell that the process itself doesn’t result in the patient’s death.

Oh, and out of caution they continue to consider the patient HIV pos for the rest of their lives anyway.

For me, the real takeaway is that medical professionals no longer view HIV a big enough health risk to consider stuff like this viable for HIV patients in general.

Xbox One plays a number of 360 games fine.

Apple used QuickTransit for their PPC apps on Intel migration to great success.

I guess Sony just didn’t want to pay the emulator tax?

My last year of uni I was broke. The previous year the parking passes had red letters, that year purple. That was the only difference. The colour. I traced over all the letters of my previous parking pass with a blue sharpie and parked for free all year.

I wasn’t saying you had any particular agenda, I was speaking generally.

Yeah, I read that as the homeless person is wearing woman’s shoes and is crazy, not that he’s being judged as crazy for wearing woman’s shoes. Nothing in android’s lyrics struck me as transphobic.

In king for a day I see homophobia in general represented by the dad character and the implication that the “guys” will do something bad - but that’s the point, isn’t it? To condemn the homophobia?

Idk, I think that when it comes to interpretation there is no winning when up against someone with an agenda. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
