Byuu / byuu_nyan / setsunakun0 - "Non-binary" furry programmer who wrote a Super Nintendo emulator

[whatever I feel like]

Forgot about Ryan, the former Minecraft developer. Didn't know he was a furfag but I do recall him writing some TDS laden tweets around the 2016 elections.
But yeah, the emulation scene definitely has enough crazies and autistic drama at this point to warrant a Community Watch thread.

There was one for the SJW Switch team a year or so ago but it died due to disuse.

Half the emulation scene is full of people even more degenerate than him too, it really needs its own community watch thread.

I agree with this sentiment. Whenever I look into the homebrew community pretty much every twitter profile reads "NeverTrump SpoopySpaceWitchSlimeCat She/Her (Cockchopper/Liverkiller)"

He stopped acting exceptional back in November, and wiped all of his furry accounts. "Non-binary" stuff is gone. Articles are gone. Good thing it's all saved here. Do you think he noticed us, or did he just get his shit together after moving?

Interesting. A less-notable emulator developer (also admin of the audio technical site Hydrogenaudio, developer of a suite of foobar2000 components) named kode54 came out as a gay furry only a year or two before byuu did. I didn't know that was how the timeline looked. The two are reasonably close in terms of circles and I wouldn't doubt that there is some deeper connection.

Perhaps someone who knows them better than I has more to share here?

I started looking for his "new" alt because he's changing his alias to "Near" (tweet archived here http://archive.md/Wkw51 ). "byuu" will now be repurposed as the name for what he hopes will become a team that will maintain his old projects. This thread needs some work, I guess.

Byuu's new Twitter account is https://twitter.com/near_view and his new personal website is https://near.social/

Nick change on the personal account: https://twitter.com/near_vana

He's sperging hard about this identity crisis. I foresee more potential change...

Edit: Ahem, that's https://twitter.com/near_vain

He is blocking very aggressively.

Edit 2: Pretty sure he's watching this page. User name now [attempt to leverage the kiwifarms DB leak to reverse-threaten me that failed]

Edit 3: And we're back to https://twitter.com/near_view . His near.social site is currently down.

Edit 4: https://twitter.com/near_a0e770df http://archive.md/rw4ly -- "Anyone may follow. Account name changes daily and after every block." If you catch a block, add him to a private list. He seems to think I'm like three or four different people right now. Those of you who have been playing along, thanks for running interference!

Edit 5: If he maintains the current scheme, go to http://archive.md/https://twitter.com/near_* for the most recent. This way, the identity game can be crowdsourced. He's blocked his personal site from archive.md now but naturally there are others. I won't ruin them by mentioning them. Better to wait until something noteworthy happens. https://twitter.com/near_778e3acb LOL nope. Most recent username is: https://twitter.com/14ac25b08373

Not only has he returned to his exceptional antics online, he’s also discovered this thread and went nuclear over it.
I never expected byuu of all people to be such a lolcow, but I’m enjoying every second of it

Long time emu dev stalker here. I've been watching all of this stuff for over 10 years now, because I'm a fucking loser. I don't really hate these people but I love drama so lets talk.

I want to get something off my chest. I really don't think Byuu is a furry. Like honestly, he just suddenly "became" furry? Hes full of shit. So why does he have a fursona? Because he hangs out around a bunch of furries. Most of the furry shit he likes just happens to be weeb shit that literally any weeaboo would also like. Finally, unlike say kode54, theres literally no evidence byuu was ever a closet furry, he just magically became one all of the sudden as a grown ass man. Doesn't add up.

kode54 is unrelated, he just hung out on byuus forums years ago. Though kode54 has ties to mudlord, a fella that could seriously fill his own thread, along with Squarepusher of Retroarch fame. (Honest to god, both of those people are way, way, way more fucking insane than byuu in my opinion.)

Anyone care to write an emulation community thread?

Now I can get behind that. The thing is, if such a thread existed, it would be full of people much more insane than byuu. Byuu barely even does anything amusing other than the occasional hottake. Squarepusher, however, is certifiably fucking insane. (If I could will a thread into existence, it would be that one.) To be honest though, I never kept good evidence/archives of all of the retarded shit people have done, so I probably don't have much to contribute. Sounds like the /emugen/ could deliver maybe?

I'm trying to see if i can find some of the screencaps i have of squarepusher sockpuppeting super blatantly on reddit. It's pretty good shit.

 

[???]

IIRC byuus fursona is a gay shota that is furified to obfuscate byuus pedophilia.

I can contribute to any emulation thread, just add romhacking to it. It will be a week or two yet though.

LOL. Exactly. https://twitter.com/i/user/1224300905207496705

So he went on a big rant ( http://archive.md/j4Eu7 ) about me updating his changing nick which was (at the end) run an Autohotkey script. Couldn't have been that from the start, as it was responsive to my commentary about how if he kept the "near" part constant, I could hack around it all by simply pointing to an archive link. I figured it was something like this, as it was too regular, and during a time when he, as someone who lives in Japan, should have been sleeping. The whole thing was weird anyhow, because as you say, user ID doesn't change. Why did he care so much?

Funny that he thinks he was clever enough to use a script, but no one could script something trivial like updating a forum link. Three curl calls: One GET to Twitter API, one GET to Kiwifarms edit page to request an edit token, and one POST to the edit page to update the content. (You can copy-paste curl commands right out of Firefox and Chrome.)

Fun game, byuu. Would you like to play again?

That's honestly not a bad thing because a thread like that would be much more entertaining. The emulation community in general is loaded with tons of drama and crazy people, people who make Byuu at his most controversial look normal.

Also the MAME camp itself has a bunch of drama, including the Akkh Arrh leak and the whole drama about the Cave SH3 driver being added to MAME too soon among others. There was also recently drama revolving around a game that will likely never be in MAME for political reasons in which the tl;dr is someone allegedly stole a prototype game from SEGA to put in MAME (archive here) and actually got people fired from Sega. There's also MooglyGuy who's like Byuu if he posted dumb shit on message boards far more often, he's talented and wrote a MAME driver that was in high demand but he can also get into flamewars on forums about doing things his way and whatnot.

If I had known how deep the rabbit hole went I might have made an emulation general thread instead of one on just one guy tbh.

Holy fucking shit. I rarely read an internet post that restores my faith in humanity but dumping an unreleased game from under a hoarder's nose is an absolutely madlad move reserved for people with big balls who don't give a shit about "Collector's Value".

 

[???]

Is byuu still taking testosterone blockers? The medium-term health consequences of that are lulzy, keep an eye out for hospital visits, bone fractures, and tooth loss.

 

[another life in hell]

Looks like byuu cleared out the thread where he was spazzing about his name, but did leave one artifact behind.

I think you're mixing people up, I don't think byuu was ever on antiandrogens. Not that I can recall at least.

It was a forum post, just before he went to Japan.

ah ok, sorry, must have missed it. Probably doesnt anymore, because i think he gave up the whole fake tranny thing, but im not really surprised byuu did hrt. I heard he did dmt and some other random drugs just for shits and grins. Mudlord liked to call byuu a druggie back when they were quarreling. More on that here. Good times.

edit: More byuu drug shit. Guess he didnt like dmt very much haha

 

[Joe Biden's Left Testicle]

I think Byuu has some skeletons in his closet that we don't know of yet.
From him giving money to Sisk the convicted sex offender and groomer of children, his blog post about shota, his opinion on Eevee and the really strange undertone to his Internet persona he's obviously suspect for some activities.
I mean, practically he admitted to fapping to shota through his blog post's insane projection on how poor, poor people (himself) have been vilified and persecuted by everyone around them for liking it.

My suspicions don't end there. Who are you, @another life in hell?
You just joined yesterday, yet you've already made four posts in this thread. You haven't even set your avatar. In all of your posts you try to downplay Byuu's exceptional behaviour.
Like how you say he isn't even a furry, didn't take antiandrogens, gave up being trans/bi/whatever and is boring compared to the other emulation lolcows.
That's literally all the content you've posted here. If you're trying to sockpuppet, you're doing a really bad job at it.

Mostly a nobody. I only joined to post in this thread, though it's not as though I haven't been lurking in other threads. I was pretty honest when I came in here:

Long time emu dev stalker here. I've been watching all of this stuff for over 10 years now, because I'm a fucking loser. I don't really hate these people but I love drama so lets talk.

It's true, I really don't hate these people. I also have been following this for a long time, and I've never caught byuu in a slip up regarding pedophilia. In fact I've never even caught him showing really any sexuality, on his forums or twitter. He literally only started playing the furry and tranny shit when he started hanging around furry troons on twitter.

The thing is, without those accusations there's still tons of hilarious shit in the emudev scene and in byuu's history. I think byuu sperging over closed source emus and FPGAs is hilarious. His sperging has gotten a little boring lately as it's now limited to bitching about Google. While maybe a bit pathetic it's not really as amusing.

The best truths I can really add that aren't present very much is byuu's habit of taking basically any drug he can find, which I did provide some links to, and there are certainly more bits of it around the net.

I'm being genuine when I say I'm surprised byuu got his own thread before some of the other emudev losers. Have you read some of squarepusher's rants? And the projects he works on are similarly notable (RetroArch.) I'm pretty sure the others who've been following for a long time would agree.
