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

[Joe Biden's Left Testicle]

Now that Byuu is gone, can we get an emulation general? Byuu was just the tip of the iceberg when it came to spergery. There are far worse autists in that niche.

If somebody organised a thread documenting a few people like Stablebutter and the emulation community in general, it could definitely make for a good Community Watch thread. Maybe for a start, focusing on Nintendo emulation would be a good idea as that's where the most spergy shit goes on it seems

 

[RetroCrab]

I made a list for CIA Nigger but he never acted on it. If anyone wants to make a thread, DM me or make a prospering grounds topic and I'll send the details. I have receipts on twelve people who are each very threadworthy just on their own. The emudev scene is autism all the way down.

Since you named one of them, some interesting reading:

random.txt material.

reddit has banned links to Kiwifarms at the admin level and it's been like that for years at this point. I remember mods of a sub freaking out because they got admin messages telling them to remove links or have their sub banned.
These days the links are automatically removed on all subs without any moderator intervention required.

So that retard moderator did literally nothing.

Spoiler

So, a few points.
I shouldn't have tried to return in May; my situation had not improved then.
I don't think anyone could have anticipated a global pandemic when I first announced my plans to retire in 2019.
I further had reason to believe things would improve, but that turned out to be a false hope in the end.
I've always had a strong passion for emulator development, so it was easy to fall back into it again.
I needed to really leave this time, and that meant not holding onto old accounts. I'm very sorry if I've worried anyone.
I am regretful I was not able to complete the new N64 and PS1 cores, but they're each at least 80% finished.
I've closed my Patreon account, and sent the final $1,200 to John for SNES PPU delayering and imaging.
I've removed accounts on every service that allows deletion and doesn't allow name reuse (Reddit, Mastodon, etc)
I've transferred ownership of accounts on services that allow impersonations (GitLab, Twitter, Patreon, etc)
All the same I want to stress, if someone appears in the future claiming to be me, they're not.
I really didn't want to address this publicly, but if you want to know the reason I've been erratic lately:
At the beginning of the year, an anonymous individual went through who I followed and made a list of emulator developers.
They then made a dox list of their names, photos, addresses, etc, along with some grotesque commentary about each of them.
I know they used my following list because it included the names of very obscure developers who never released anything.
And more telling, it omitted the names of prominent developers that I didn't follow. This was targeted at me.
I've had my fans and my critics since 1998. I'm used to it. I can laugh at myself and handle criticism sent my way.
Hell, I've already internalized it all anyway. It's hard to take someone down a peg when they have no self-esteem to begin with.
But going after people I care about solely to get at me crossed a line.
And no matter how many people reassure me it's not my fault, I can't shake the feeling that it is.
All I've ever done online was post strong opinions about emulator design and talk about politics like millions of other people.
I did not deserve this, and most especially, the people I followed did not deserve this.
It took 22 years, but they finally found my one weakness, and they've won. I tried everything.
I tried acknowledging and addressing all criticisms made of me for the past two years now to no avail.
I tried making the software everyone wanted, running a GitHub account, and more, to no avail.
I even tried changing my name, and later my emulator name, to no avail.
It finally became clear to me that nothing I ever say or do is going to change or stop this.
As long as I'm around, I'm putting my friends at risk of further harassment, and I just can't selfishly ignore that.
I offer my strongest apologies to those affected by this, I am so sorry. I'd have given anything to undo this, but I can't.
To whoever was responsible for the list, if the day ever comes that you feel remorse for it, I forgive you.
As far as preserving what I have created ...
I've transferred the Discord server to Kawa.
I've transferred the GitHub emulation projects and Twitter accounts to MerryMage.
I've transferred the GitHub byuu account and byuu website domains to Screwtape.
They have access to every article, emulator WIP build, changelog note, etc, and it will all be preserved by them going forward.
As always, it's been a real pleasure.
I may be leaving sooner than I otherwise would have, but all good things come to an end. This was inevitable.
Whether anyone ever believes it or not, I never wanted the attention or popularity. I just wanted to share my work with everyone.
I never wanted my last message to have to carry such a sad weight to it.
I know that I can't ask people to forget about me, but I do ask that you focus on what matters.
So at the very least, please don't remember me for why I had to leave, remember me for who I was.
Thank you all for reading. Stay safe out there. I'll be okay.

So self-flagellation and evoking pity is going to undox these people? I guess it sort of worked if @CIA Nigger did delete this thread at some point (tbh, I didn't notice).
@RetroCrab when you said you compiled a list for CIA Nigger, did it include doxes? Is it possible that CIA Nigger showed that list to Byuu?

Guess I was half right.

I hope you're right (because I want that N64 core) but he even deleted his Patreon handout.
https://graphtreon.com/creator/byuu stats are gone but he was pulling in $300 to $500 a month.
If he comes back after saying he left to protect his friends, he's gonna look like a real piece of shit in everyone's eyes.
We'll see though.

Byuu's last login here was on April 2nd so I doubt it unless he did it off site.

I didn't include real names in my list except for people that were very obvious. Jeffrey Pfau (endrift) put his name in his license file so how is that even doxing?

I'm pretty sure CIA Nigger acted out of remorse.

The thing is there are a bunch of people in /emugen/ threads who laugh at bigger lolcows than Byuu. Byuu only came across my radar when I was doing digging on troon furries in general and even if his behavior is erratic or his opinions on some things are controversial (the FPGA debate comes to mind), there are far crazier people in the scene.

To be honest I agree with him. In two years this thread hasn't turned up anything new on Byuu, who's nothing more than your garden variety autistic furry with TDS, but who actually did good work in the emulation scene and is highly respected when he's not being exceptional. He hasn't made any milk for us beyond retiring (and then retiring again), and I don't think laughing at his cubsona was worth not getting an autistically perfect N64 emulator Guess it doesn't matter now.

People sure like to project on this place. The guy just said he left because his friends got doxed and there are no doxes in this thread.
/emugen/ is where all the emudev doxing happens. But no, it's the evil kiwis responsible for everything!

 

[peanus weenus]

This guy's pushing himself too much. He took too much of a work to himself and turned into self-made emulation celebrity with people having too much expectations from him when they wouldn't even be able to tell if their bing bing wahoo game is 100% properly emulated or not.

 

[GorebyHog]

I gotta say: even through the many weird things he's done for the past 10 years, I can't help but respect his love and dedication to his craft, and the responses he's made to this thread. Still slightly disappointing that it had to "end" this way, especially the N64 emulator.

Someone doesn't become a lolcow once they have a thread here, that's an intrinsic property of a cow itself. There are countless cows not featured on the farms. Having a thread here just means someone cared enough about them to make a good OP.

I found KF thanks to this thread being linked on /emugen/ and I made that thread too soon.
Daniel is a massive dramacow but my OP sucked and I focused on people's reactions to him rather than on Daniel himself. He chimps out to the point of calling your boss and trying to get you fired if you criticize him or his software. 90% of all drama in the emulation scene centers around him, and with Byuu (likely) gone now, probably closer to 100%.

As for their complaint, Byuu never chimped about his KF thread but he sure as hell did about Daniel and /emugen/. They've got around 320 pages on him compared to our 9. Although it's my personal belief this thread returning is the reason he left, it's because of /emugen/ he ever got featured here in the first place, they've been watching him since at least 2010.

[TaimuRadiu]

Wait, what did KF actually do? It's not like byuu doesn't have a history of DFE anyway.

edit: I'm aware of some gay ass drama going on here but I have no idea what it's about. Just assume every emulator developer is a gay furry tranny pedophile anyway.

 

[HotPockets]

Okay, so, I'm confused.. What did byuu do exactly to deserve a thread here? Other than "be a furry"? The OP is pretty dry and opinionated. I think most furries are retards, but it seems like we drove off a developer with some talent for no reason. Surely there are better targets for our time, yeah?

No one cares newfag. From what I can tell your entire reason for being on this website is trollshielding furries.
"Better targets for our time", lmao, lurk more.

Lol, you're not paying attention, douchebag. *I* was the one that called out dusk raccoon and linked his confession vid. And you think I'm " defending furries"? Get your facts straight before you make yourself look like an even bigger idiot.

My QUESTION is, what did this " byuu" guy DO, besides be a furry. Why does he have a thread when there are better furs to document. You can't seem to answer, so STFU.
