Quoting: williamjcmWell, since the leak happened, I'm sure competition watchdogs will keep a very close eye on Microsoft for the years to come.

As far as I know the watchdog is only meant to keep Microsoft from doing something illegal; there is no morality watchdog to prevent them from being a piece of shthit cnut fckuing company.

I'm a bit sad MonoGame didn't get a little bit of that huge cash drop from Re-logic that the other projects did, I understand it's somewhat of a sibling of FNA and they also carry a lot of indie gaming weight, and it feels a bit sad, but fair play to the others though, free money is free money and can only be grateful to Re-logic.

I just have a bad feeling some devs of MonoGame might just be forced to go where the money is now (FNA).

Quoting: JpxeWhat the difference between MonoGame and FNA?

That's a question asked heavily. I can't find it now, but I recently read a long blog post by a guy "flibijibito" or something like that who I understand is an absolute guru in Linux game tech. He apparently works on FNA and wrote this post about FNA vs MonoGame. For some reason that post seemed written through his teeth, diplomatically suggesting that MonoGame are just w4nk1ng in the wind and FNA has a more strict and smaller scope but they do what they do better. I'd like to say that to you as an answer but I had to mention this backstory because I feel this guru guy was biased and salty when he wrote it, so I cannot take that forward as fact to other people. Maybe others can also jump in.

I don't get it. If it's just a "low level emulation", then why not just use Dosbox instead, which is a low level emulation? It would sound that this project only implements the subset of Dosbox which is needed at runtime by these games.

Quoting: MayeulCI don't see anything that constitutes a backdoor here.

That is understandable... if you're a Microsoft employee.

The processor doesn't need to be able to access your RAM to be a security risk. If its crypto engines or RNG engine is analyzed and a flaw in the algorithm is detected, it can be exploited to weaken anything that has been encrypted with this processor.

Valve helping us divorce first from Microsoft, and now from Google? I must be dreaming.
