Inactive Byuu / byuu_nyan / setsunakun0 / Near / David Ginder - "Non-binary" furry programmer who wrote a Super Nintendo emulator, tried to blackmail Null into removing his thread, and is probably actually dead lol

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
No I'm reasonably certain as an adult who has been alive and conscious for a few decades that if you express things in text like "kill yourself" or "you are a pedophile" to someone when there's no evidence of it and they kill themselves then you are not only held accountable on a basic social level by most sane people, you are sometimes arrested and face criminal charges by our institutions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Conrad_Roy.
Interesting opinion, newfriend. However, as far as I'm aware Null never told Byuu to kill himself or accused him of being a pedophile.
 
Where's Hector? You think he'd be gloating.

I guess maybe it isn't such a huge win that we all changed our minds given actual evidence, which we had to dig up ourselves because this dude's so-called friends cared that little about him.

I'm not sure if you're a pedophile, but I do suggest strongly that you do a flip.
 
I mean it is tragic and all that.. but it still doesn't mean much. His thread was basically dead, nobody on this site gave a shit about him. His autistic tantrum over the thread felt much more like the obsessive desperate rantings of an idiot trying to protect his ego. At the very least this doesn't mean what many people thinks it means. It just means a bare minimum threshold is reached to even take seriously as a topic. There, we now know that he's likely actually dead. Now we can move onto all the other stuff. Like pointing out that, just like the media and internet in general, nobody is obligated, morally, ethically or otherwise, to scrub the public memory of every stupid thing someone did or said publicly in the past, just because they insist, or try to use emotional and other blackmail. As the mental health and medical professions learned long ago.. It is never a good idea to engage or indulge suicide baiting or threats. Plus in this context.. It is very much a case of being "Your mental health is your responsibility, not mine"

RIP to him though, I hope he at least found peace on the other side. Such a senseless choice. Living the dream of so many other people and he an heroes.
 
I distinctly remember when planning for funerals for people close to me there's no coroner involved. Is the suicide thing grounds for that or did someone have to ask for it?

I'm just wondering when/if his guntguard got the report - if they were involved at all, since it really is baffling why they had absolutely no proof.
My best guess is they were lying to hide something, because fucking duh.

And I'm betting it's encouraging suicide. Especially with how cagey and snippy they all are in places their "people" can't see.
Since you're already doing the petty "look into user's profiles to find ammo against them" bullshit, here's a pro tip:
THAT'S HOW I NAVIGATE THE SITE FUCK YOUUUUUUUuuuuuu >:(

It means they blew their wad with no evidence whatsoever supporting their claims, and now that it's actually probably proven, nobody cares any more. And the only reason there actually is evidence is someone here got it, because we're the only people who even CARED if he was actually dead or alive.

Oh but they'll have to get their good buddies to write a fake news article about it, because the actual documents proving it are "original research."
 
Rip Byuu, this has been a long story and it seems like we reached the end, hopefully he's at a better place now.
Hoping that his family and people who genuinely cared about him are doing well and that they coped properly about this whole ordeal.

Sadly many will use Byuu's dead as ammunition towards KF while showing a complete lack of respect for the deceased, what a shame.

Correct. Byuu offered something in the neighborhood of $100k for Null to take down his thread. Null said no, so Byuu doubled down and said he’d kill himself if Null didn’t comply. Null said “lol k” and that was that.

I’m sure there are several nations that’d try and prosecute someone failing to stop a troon from necking itself despite being several thousand miles away but I’m confident none of them are in Eastern Europe. Or Japan, for that matter.

People waxing morally about things you did by referencing you as the source without sourcing you is second only to gaslighting an entire population to doing something retarded.

I wanna see that incestuous self-referential web of journos try to twist their sources into itself to avoid citing this thread.
 
Imagine being so unloved that nobody has any concrete idea of whether you're dead or not, and then the very site you pinned the blame on, which didn't even do remotely so much as they wish they had done, is the one that tirelessly worked to prove one way or the other what happened to you. And it STILL isn't concrete enough.

And you might have also had your ashes put in a custom jar that they sell to literally just anyone down the street by someone who isn't even a relative of yours.

Snes9x is the one that really reigns supreme, zsnes has some problems emulator nerds bitch about but bsnes has always been "super accurate to the point that it doesn't even really matter".

Gigachads continue to use zsnes anyway because the UI is comfy.
Snes9x will do for most stuff. Bsnes was really good for SuperFX games, especially ones with 3D cutscenes that would always play either too slow or too fast in other emulators.

No, it was definitely the worry that his death would be used against the forum. It was everyone going into denial mode because for the first time, a lolcow was directly implicating Kiwi Farms into their suicide.
Then why didn't people give a shit any other time someone used a death against the forum? He's not the first. You're being a retard.
 
bsnes having "high" hardware requirements was only true in the sense that it wouldn't run well on a Raspberry Pi or other ultra-low-end junk that people wanted to use for their living room emulator box. If you were running it on a vaguely modern PC it was never a problem.

I have nothing bad to say about Byuu's vision for software development, but he was a gigantic crybaby bitch who regretted that he was born with a math brain instead of a "creative" brain. Waste of talent.
 
I'm sure there's not too much I can say that hasn't been said already but here's some things I found interesting from the FOIA request.
View attachment 5881872Byuu didn't leave behind much at all to his friends and family members. This isn't a big deal seeing as he didn't leave behind any children as far as we know. The big problem is that he took the easy way out and left the aftermath to be dealt with by people he didn't have close relationships with. I can't imagine not only losing my best friend but having to deal with having to make payments and arrangements to have his remains cremated and transported along with any valuables he left behind.
Screenshot_20240405_222758_Drive.jpgThank you Josh for not giving into his demands. It was wrong of Byuu to pin all of his problems on you and put you in a position like that. I'm pretty sure that even if you did give into his blackmail he still would've eventually taken his own life. As you said, nobody in the thread was being overly hard on him, and if the thread were taken down I'm sure his programmer alogs would've still continued to go after him.

Sounds like he had a lot in common with all the other people who've kicked up a shit storm about this site.

With all that being said, I hope I don't come off as cynical. I am saddened to beat about what happened to Byuu and I wish the best for his family members. What he did left a big impact on those who knew him.

Edit: sorry it won't let me thumbnail the last image.

Thank you Josh for not giving into his demands.
As I recall, Byuu gave Josh a 24 hour deadline to take down his thread, then contacted him again only a few hours later saying it was taking too long and that he was gonna end it. Even if you were to take the (insane) position that Josh was responsible for not taking down the thread, the fact that Byuu broke his own deadline sort of undermines that.
I suspect that somebody egged him on to kill himself and blame Kiwi Farms to "give his death meaning" or something like that. Who that might have been, I have no idea.
