Once Were Nerd è stato denunciato per aver recensito console cinesi che includono giochi protetti da copyright, come Anbernic, Powkiddy e Trimui.

Once Were Nerd è uno youtuber e content creator italiano, il cui vero nome è Francesco Salicini. Il suo canale YouTube è dedicato al mondo #NERD con contenuti su arcade, retrogaming, console, videogames, giochi da tavolo e LEGO. Gestisce anche un blog e uno shop online.

Questa vicenda ha portato a una perquisizione nella sua abitazione e al sequestro di oltre trenta console, con il rischio di una pena detentiva e una multa. È in corso anche una procedura per oscurare i suoi canali social.

La contestazione riguarda la violazione dell'articolo 171 ter del Codice Penale, relativo alla legge sul copyright, per aver promosso materiale protetto da copyright tramite i suoi canali social

Sei finanzieri si sono presentati a casa sua e a casa di sua madre con un decreto di perquisizione, hanno catalogato e requisito oltre trenta console Ambernic, Powkiddy e Trimui.

Once Were Nerd rischia dai 6 mesi ai 3 anni di carcere e una multa massima di 15.000 euro. È stata inoltre avviata la procedura per oscurare tutti i suoi canali social (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook).

Il suo cellulare, strumento di lavoro principale, è stato requisito il 15 aprile e restituito solo il 18 giugno, costringendolo ad acquistarne uno nuovo.

Tutti i content creator in Italia che recensiscono console simili dovrebbero prestare attenzione, poiché sembra esserci una stretta su questi temi

Governments are cracking down on emulation devices for promoting “piracy”.



Okay, but what isn’t an emulation device? Every PC, smartphone, and console is an emulation device.



But also, what about homebrew? Or systems like the TIC-80 that only exist through emulation?

Investor: Your AI company sounds very impressive. Are you open to investments?

Giant man who suspiciously resembles 700 Indian engineers in a trench coat: Yes.

This is what I think of every time I see Microsoft Co-Pilot mentioned:

I find it oddly comforting that tech corporations are now straight up advertising their vision of dystopian individualism where all your friends have been replaced by their chatbot.

With the current news of possibly dozens of AUR packages hosting a dangerous form of malware, we should probably once again, for yet more reasons, reconsider why so many people point newcomers to Arch-based distributions.

The amount of "just do this random AUR bro" is insane.

(EDIT: This is the mailing list post - https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/aur-general@lists.archlinux.org/thread/7EZTJXLIAQLARQNTMEW2HBWZYE626IFJ/

More packages have been found since, and the story is unfolding.)
