IMDb was acquired by amazon in 1998. Goodreads by same in 2013. Any useful body of userdata gets bought up. But folks don't stop creating new free platforms to connect.

Bidders for assets outside Disney's license get a blank price, as-is terms and a December 17 exit date. Can the sale order supply the privacy terms states want?

I keep forgetting how weird userdata is esp coming from PICO-8; I should probably make more wee things like this to stay grounded!

This helped me understand userdata a bit better lol, now I have more ideas. also this was very satisfying to watch for some reason lol

To be more precise: userdata is the general mechanism Lua provides to let non-Lua code expose types to scripts. Picotron in particular uses this to give us access to typed arrays that are faster but also more complicated to use than tables. Those are just, also named userdata lol

I could imagine the "annoy people" part could extend to identifying users via email match and using their bookmarks/history to embarrass them like the Ashley Madison hack did, but tbh that seems more like a secondary use of userdata, if that's what was hacked

The catch is that this will require a fork of Luau with some of its constants tweaked, since this system makes use of the userdata type tag system for every supported C# type. This can trivially exceed the 128 tag limit, so bumped it up to 1024, but ideally this is set on an as-needed basis.

It is a standard Lua thing, but only as a raw block of memory. Picotron has its own particular userdata api and way of treating them as 1d or 2d arrays of typed values.

oh is userdata just a lua thing? I always thought it was a Picotron feature lol. Though I do have a lot to learn about both

Joining the US Trustee's objection, they cite 12 million users, minors included, and a full platform sale left unclear. What would an ombudsman check, and when?

I hate how the paradigm has changed that basically everything now will install without consent or choice to C:\...\userdata\
like no I want literally nothing on C:\ that isn't a system file

Atari 7800 now restored.
Realized all my controller mappings are gone.
Suffered the hell of trying to retrieve my screenscraper.fr username and password.
NES restoration likely next.
I have only 440 GB usable userdata. I will likely only be able to get as far as Genesis/SNES. Ugh.

Ok, I found a small shitty 500 GB drive.
I have restored Atari 5200 and Sega Master System.
I've been playing Adams Family for Sega Master System for the past 10 minutes appalled at the game plot. Gomez runs around the game after ...money? Horrible. Just horrible.
